Longview Park spans 47 acres of rolling terrain and mature oak woodland at the edge of Highland Park’s western residential area. A 1.2-mile paved loop accommodates walkers, joggers, and cyclists, while an adjacent 0.6-mile crushed-stone trail winds through the park’s restored prairie and past seasonal wildflowers. The park houses two playgrounds with modern safety surfacing, two lighted tennis courts, four pickleball courts, and a regulation baseball field. A 4,000-square-foot recreation building contains restrooms, drinking fountains, and an indoor gathering room available for permitted use. Picnic shelters equipped with grills overlook the central lawn, and a small fishing pond stocked annually by the Park District draws local anglers. The park is served by paved parking lots on both the east and west sides and lies three blocks from the Metra Union Pacific North line, providing a 35-minute rail connection to downtown Chicago.
Longview Park currently has 7 single family homes for sale and 1 townhouse for sale. For anyone looking for a brand new home, there is 1 new construction home for sale.
