Skinner Park occupies 21 acres in Chicago’s Near West Side and serves as a primary green space for residents of the West Loop and adjacent neighborhoods. The park features two lighted baseball diamonds, two full-size basketball courts, two tennis courts, and a large playground equipped with modern climbing structures. A 0.6-mile paved loop path circles the interior, accommodating walkers, joggers, and cyclists. Mature oak and maple trees line the perimeter and provide shade over open lawns used for picnics and informal sports. A field house contains restrooms, a gymnasium, and meeting rooms available for permit. Skinner Park sits four blocks from the Morgan Street Green Line station and is bordered by Halsted, Adams, Loomis, and Monroe streets, placing residents within walking distance of restaurants, grocery stores, and the United Center. The park is open daily from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. and is maintained by the Chicago Park District.
