Oakley Park, Chicago, IL

Oakley Park sits on the western edge of Chicago’s Hermosa neighborhood and covers 4.2 acres bounded by North Oakley and North Avers Avenues. The park’s main draw is its full-size synthetic-turf soccer field, lined for both regulation matches and youth practices, with a surrounding eight-lane rubberized running track that stays open year-round. A fenced playground equipped with climbing structures and swings occupies the southeast corner, while a smaller natural-turf diamond serves baseball and softball leagues. Two lighted tennis courts and a basketball court sit along the north fence, and a small fieldhouse provides restrooms and seasonal program registration. The park connects directly to the 4-mile Bloomingdale Trail segment of The 606, giving residents immediate access to a continuous pedestrian and bicycle corridor that links to the larger 312-mile Chicago Lakefront Trail system. Street parking surrounds the park, and CTA bus routes 72 and 73 stop within one block on North Avenue and Fullerton Avenue, respectively.
