Marshfield Park, Chicago, IL

Marshfield Park occupies a compact 2.7-acre site in Chicago’s West Town neighborhood, bounded by Marshfield Avenue, North Avenue, and Ashland Avenue. The park contains a lighted baseball diamond with permanent bleachers, two full basketball courts, a children’s playground with rubberized surfacing, and a small picnic grove with grills. A perimeter walking loop of roughly one-third mile is surfaced with crushed limestone and connects directly to the 606 Trail entrance at Marshfield Avenue, giving residents an off-street route to the lakefront and to the Bloomingdale Trail’s larger network. Mature oak and maple trees line the north edge, providing partial shade for the open lawn that stretches along Ashland. The park is served by CTA bus routes on both North and Ashland Avenues, and Divvy stations are located at the park’s northwest and southeast corners, linking cyclists to downtown and the medical campus along the Milwaukee Corridor.
