Belmont & Curtiss Park, Downers Grove, IL

Belmont & Curtiss Park sits at the intersection of two established Downers Grove neighborhoods, offering direct access to a 2.1-mile paved loop that connects to the Illinois Prairie Path and the Downers Grove Park District’s 25-mile trail network. The park’s 18-acre layout includes two lighted tennis courts, a playground with rubber surfacing, a full-size baseball diamond, and two picnic shelters with electric service. Open fields are mowed on a regular schedule, and mature oak and maple trees provide consistent shade along the perimeter path. Restrooms and drinking fountains operate from April through October. The site is two blocks from downtown Downers Grove’s Main Street retail corridor and three blocks from the BNSF Metra station, giving residents walkable access to groceries, restaurants, and commuter rail service without crossing major arterial roads.
