Margaret Donahue Park

"This neighborhood playground is definitely a destination playground. The fully enclosed play area features a soft rubber play surface, an artificial turf field (with the Cubs logo befitting it's location close to Wrigley Field and the namesake of the park - Margaret Donahue), several benches, and picnic tables covered by large shade umbrellas. The two play structures are both solid; one is designed for younger children and the other is designed for older children and features cues to famous Chicago skyscrapers at the tops. There is also a large net climbing feature and the normal variety of swings. The standout features of this playground, though, are the water features. There is a three part overhead shower-like sprayer, a misting ring, a few jets coming from a mosaic wall, and an interactive water table. Given all the amenities, this playground is popular in the summer months and for good reason - this is a great playground."

"Amazing park to play and have lunch. Areas to spread out a picnic blanket or sit at one of the shaded tables that also have space between seats for wheelchairs or strollers. That was super nice for my son with his broken leg to be able to sit with us. There is a water area, variety of play equipment including slides, swings and ropes to climb as well as a few community toys and water tables."

"Safe and fun park. Playground is nice. It is very good that no dogs are allowed During summer Specifically it's a lot to play with water. Nice picnic areas, seating tables lots of shades. The only inconvenience is that there is no restrooms and garbage cans are always full."

"This is a fantastic park. There is a field good for kicking balls or playing catch, nice swings and slides, and best of all is a hill feature that kids love. There is often street parking open across the street but it is walkable from a lot of houses."
