Grandparents Playlot Park sits at 2655 North Sheffield Avenue, a compact 0.62-acre green space bordered by the Sheffield Neighbors Historic District and the DePaul University campus. Its fenced playground includes modern climbing structures and a splash pad that operates from mid-May through September, providing supervised play for children while adults use the adjacent benches and shaded picnic tables. A 0.3-mile asphalt loop encircles the lawn, accommodating joggers and dog walkers; the route links directly to the Lakefront Trail via North Avenue, giving residents a continuous path to Lincoln Park and the lakefront beaches. Two regulation-size tennis courts and a basketball half-court sit at the park’s south end, lighted until 9 p.m. for evening use. Restrooms and a drinking fountain are open year-round, and the park is served by CTA bus routes 8 and 73 at the corner of Sheffield and Wrightwood. The surrounding streets feature diagonal parking, easing weekday access for families who drive to the park.
Grandparents Playlot Park currently has 4 single family homes for sale, 12 condos for sale, and 1 lot for sale. There is 1 foreclosure for sale.
