First class park. The childrens jungle gym and playground is amazing and well spaced. There are tennis courts, basketball courts and pool. There are skyline sightlines and even free parking. Great place to throw/kick around the ball or picnic. The only downside is the size, but the park makes up for that in many other ways.
My 3 sons grew up here and there is no other Park, Id rather my grand children to come and play but at the Union Park, I love this place! Its beautiful, it has a restroom and plenty of things to do and have fun! A big thanks to you, UNION PARK and GOD bless.
Very big park in a great location that is great for community gatherings. It can use some upgrades to the baseball fields, playgrounds, and swimming pool. It is easy to get to because its on a major street artery, and it is right under the Ashland stop for the Green/Pink Line. It could use one more basketball court, and some more upkeep when it comes to concerts and festivals. Parking is very scarce over here so please be patient or take public transportation.
Nice park unfortunately there was no place to use the restroom
Theres alot of activities there its really great you can climb the Rick wall it was awesome
Played tennis at the courts here recently. Not the best surface, especially for late July by which time these public courts shouldve been renewed. No gaping holes on the surface but the nets were sagging and the surface was pockmarked enough to make the ball bounce a tad unpredictably.
Its a big park nice and clean despite all the protest. Lots of people go there for exercising, yoga and other things.
There was a peaceful March there this evening. Great and powerful experience large crowd
Song great music and events during the summer. Great park! Close to new development of high rises around the west loop.
Hit or miss sometimes its nice and peaceful other times... well
Beautiful park. This place here is nothing but childhood memories
We had a good time here. Ive never been before. But we hosted an N/A picnic, which turned out great! Not just in number wise, but as far as everything else as well!. Only if there hadnt been any rain at all that day!!! But we sure did make it work!!!. Id recommend for big get to gathers and such!
Best gourmet pizza in the visit gosarpinos.com order online!!
Enjoy the tennis and basketball courts
Great open space for festivals and concerts. Easy to locate and versatile. Ample space for vendors, food trucks, booths, stages, etc.
Not a place a driver of a semi want to find themselves! The area seems nice.went far a walk. Wasnt scared. The rail train was loud. Find your adventure...
A common ground that is respected by the community.
Great place to hit a couple two, tree dingers on da softball field while puttin down a coupla coldies
I fell asleep woke up being robbed all of my stuff and phone everything was taken...plus very rude staff members
I had never been to Chicago before this event at Union Park. Had a lot of fun. It had rained the previous day but the volunteers wprked relatively hard to put down as much sand as they could in the puddles and whatnot. after a music wvent there a lot of trash and recyclables just lying arpund but im sure the clean up crew did a great jpb
I grew up in that park
Decent park with festivals occasionally. Nothing terrible special.
Enjoying my Sunday
It is a nice place to relax and just take a break. Theres plenty to do at this park. Go for a swim or work out. Even enjoy a summer concert.
Nice park for a barbecue or picnicking
Nice little park right by the green line station Ashland and lake street
Great free street parking. My pre-teen daughter had plenty to climb on. The park was clean and the children played well together.
Large, always have a good time when we go! We always go to the Great back to Picnic that Alderman Burnett gives
This park has a great playground for older kids
The International Festival of Life brought me to the park and then I took the time to read about the rich history. It was a nice walk from downtown and gave us a chance to walk by the Haymarket Memorial on the way. We liked the park.
Kool place to play baseball. They also have a Fieldhouse.
Nice Payground Equipment
Wish it had a nature walk or pond. Other than that, it is a good place to take the kids. Theres a playground, field house, basketball court, tennis court baseball field. Enough to keep kids active.
Decent amenities, nice quiet part of the neighborhood. Good events in the summer. The gym even has a workout room and an indoor basketball court. Never swam in the pool, but others seem to love it. Come here for Pitchfork every year, too. Ahh Fest! as well.
Great playing field, great pool and indoor/outdoor basketball & outdoor tennis courts.
There is a pool, when a life guard is on duty only. Park to play on and you can grill out, bring own grill.
Great park where they hold lots of venues. Its a really nice sized park where there could be a festival or concert going on on one side and people could be picnicking on the other. I havent been inside the field house so I dont know much about it as I have spent all of my time outside on the grounds here which are beautiful and spacious.
Playground good for toddlers and older kids. Rubber grounds. Trees help to shade some areas. El track nearby to watch trains.
It was amazingIt was for back to school outing plus seniors outing separate but together
Have only really been for Pitch Fork and North Coast (Music Festivals). I believe the Pitch Fork team does a good job. North Coast doesnt seem to be run as well.
Someone yelled at me for playing fetch with my dog in the snow. 10/10 would play at again.
It is a pretty great neighborhood park. It has two softball fields, a community pool, two tennis courts, and two horseshoe pits.The park is kept clean and well maintained. There is something going on here every night in the summer. The softball fields have lighting for night games. There is a paved path around the perimeter of the park which is nice for walking/running.I wish this park had a dog park. The park is friendly to dogs.#park #chicago #nearwestside
Care takers can do a little more for the field. Restrooms were beyond reproach these people should be acknowledged for their work.
Excellent gym facilities and friendly staff
Easily accessible off the cta train and bus route. Plenty of free street parking nearby. Close to lots of music venues and restaurants. There is a basketball court and baseball field. There is an outdoor pool for use during warm months. Large park.
Beautiful. This is one of the best in Chicago. Swimming pool, tennis court, baseball, playground and a large fieldhouse.
Nice park to visit
Very big park
Great place for the family I grew up there I learned to swim there they all types of activities for the family.
First time at the Latinos Alternative musicsGreat ppl there. Food is so delicious and the snacks tableOmg it is too die for pecan
OMG the March for Our Lives on March 24, 2018. These kids are amazing. The program was absolutely outstanding -- speakers and performers are listed on the March for our lives Chicago facebook page. I was in tears at least half the time. And the park was set up perfectly for this special event. Big TVs, and porta potties even!
Great park with plenty of space to run and get the wiggles out.
Feminist Skate Jam. AWESOME TIME THANKS VOCALO 91.1 RADIO
Love this park best foot ball them
Great location for concerts, close to the green line and minutes from downtown.
Clean Park. Home to Pitchfork Music Festival. Festival ran smoothly.
Great park for festival and having fun in there!
Wonderful, old school park. Love this place!
There is an awesome park here and the pool is clean and big. The pool is never very packed either so you dont have yo swim all cramped. They also have tennis courts, basketball courts and a few baseball diamonds to have family fun!!!
Easily accessible off the cta train and bus route. Plenty of free street parking nearby
Pretty good park.
Good open space, but why have a park with non working water fountains?
A lot of Space
Nice park great concerts in the summer.
Always a good place to go and let the kids run around, the sprinkler system is good for the kids with the mist spraying in a circle. 3baby strollers and the rest being of regular size.
Nice park
Easy and convenient, and located at the crossing of several bicycle routes in the city.
Just a regular ol park. Nice but nothing special.
Its a great place to have events
Great old park on the near west side.
My son, daughter and I enjoyed a concert in this park in July 2018. We saw Lauren Hill and Chaka Khan. We had an AMAZING time!
Its safe, beautiful, i it has activities & also concerts.
Convenient to walk to mc Donalds, close to train
Very nice place to take the children! Usually very clean and friendly people!!
I go to this pool every summer. The life guards and staff are friendly n respectful. I feel safe here they haved lockers n free parking.
Been to Union for Pitchfork, rallies, and a March. Well organized events and the park has ample space. Both rallies and the March were peaceful and empowering. Again plenty of space, park was clean for those.
Came here for the Pitchfork festival 2018 and had a great time. Lots of space, safe, and quick entry into the event. Id come back.
Nice and clean
Union Park has and always will be a fantastic park to me!
This place is a remembrance of where it all got started for me on the road of sobriety and recovery from insanity Jesus precious holy Jesus thank you for loving me when i didnt and couldnt love myself i am so thankful and grateful for all that he has done for me and i promise to be careful and give you all the honor and glory and all the praise you deserve in Jesus name Amen.
Lovely gathering spot. Close to L.
Have a nice time every year
Nothing really to write about, in a sketchy neighborhood
Great place to take your children
So many people listening to music at the Pitchfork. Blood Orange. Japanese Breakfast.
I went to the Pitchfork Festival with some friends this year for the first time and had a great experience. Chaka Chan and Lauren Hill put on a great show!
Great March for Our Lives. Young people who organized it are inspiring. Lets not let them down.
This is a very nice part to visit
Love taking the family to the park.
Our Alderman Burnett gave out bookbags and fed us it was beautiful
Im really only ever here for Pitchfork or Northcoast music festivals, but it works great for that! Thank you locals for allowing us musicians/festies to take over your space for a couple of weekends!
Yeah great open green grass not too crowded and lots of squirrels for my pup
