Commons Park sits between First and Third Avenues and is bordered by West Quincy Street and West Forest Avenue in North Riverside. The 10-acre site features two lighted baseball diamonds with bleachers, a lighted soccer field, four lighted tennis courts, and a playground with modern safety surfacing. A paved loop path of roughly one-third mile circles the perimeter and connects to sidewalks that lead to the North Riverside Public Library and the North Riverside Park District offices. Mature oak and maple trees provide shade over picnic tables and grills available on a first-come basis. Restrooms and drinking fountains are located near the main parking lot off Quincy Street. The park is three blocks north of the Des Plaines River Trail, allowing residents to reach the trailhead by bicycle or on foot in under ten minutes. Evening lighting on the athletic fields remains on until 10 p.m. during the spring and summer seasons, extending usable hours for organized leagues and casual play.
