McKnight Playground

Address: Pittsburgh, PA 15233, United States

Nestled in the vibrant city of Pittsburgh, McKnight Playground is a cherished local destination that contributes significantly to the community’s quality of life. As a part of the extensive CitiParks network, McKnight Playground is more than just a play area; it’s a hub of activity, offering citywide events, neighborhood festivals, and year-round recreational activities that cater to all ages.

Whether you’re in the mood for a leisurely walk through the park’s serene paths or seeking a more exhilarating run, McKnight Playground provides the perfect setting. Our playground is meticulously maintained by the Department of Public Works and CitiParks, which together oversee nearly 3,800 acres of parkland spread across 163 parks in Pittsburgh.

We are deeply grateful to our sponsors and partners, whose generous support makes the wide array of CitiParks events and programs possible. Their contributions help us ensure that McKnight Playground remains a safe, vibrant, and welcoming space for everyone in the community.

The Allegheny Regional Asset District (RAD) plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality of life in Allegheny County through its financial support of libraries, parks, trails, arts, cultural organizations, and more. Over its nearly 28 years, RAD has invested over $150 million in operating and capital grants for the region’s parks, including our beloved McKnight Playground.

The Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy, established in December 1996 by dedicated citizens, works tirelessly to restore and improve Pittsburgh’s parks. Through their efforts, they have raised over $130 million and completed more than 22 major park improvement projects. The Conservancy engages thousands of volunteers and offers programming for over 7,500 children annually, ensuring that our parks, including McKnight Playground, reach their full potential.
