Park No. 543 sits at the intersection of West 43rd Street and South Marshfield Avenue in Chicago’s New City neighborhood. The 2.5-acre park features a lighted baseball field with dugouts and a backstop, a full-court basketball court with new surfacing installed in 2021, and two tennis courts with windscreens. A 0.3-mile walking loop encircles the grounds, connecting to a playground equipped with adaptive swings and climbing structures. Mature oak and maple trees line the perimeter, providing shade over picnic tables and benches. The park is adjacent to the CTA’s 43rd Street Green Line station, offering a one-seat ride to downtown in 12 minutes, and lies three blocks from the retail corridor along South Ashland Avenue. Seasonal programming includes Chicago Park District–run youth baseball leagues and free adult fitness classes held on weekday evenings.
