Park No. 551 sits on the Near West Side between South Ashland Avenue and the Chicago River. The 4.5-acre site contains a lighted multi-purpose field used for soccer and flag football, two full basketball courts, and a playground with rubber surfacing. A 0.6-mile paved loop encircles the park and connects directly to the 606 Trail at its eastern edge, allowing residents to jog or bike without crossing major streets. Mature trees line the northern boundary, creating shade over a row of benches and picnic tables. Restrooms and a drinking fountain are located next to the field house, which also contains a fitness room open during posted hours. Street parking is permitted on adjoining residential blocks, and the park is two blocks from the Ashland CTA bus routes and one mile from the UIC-Halsted Blue Line station.
