Park 578 - Playground · Chicago Playgrounds

Description: This playground sits in Park 578 just north of the United Center and features some interesting and unique playground equipment. Although the equipment is modern, the metal climbing structure with the colorful art on the top, the climbing structure shaped like a rocket ship, and a unique swing give this playground a unique and somewhat retro feel. There is also an area for younger children, a misting water spray feature, and a large climbing net structure. There are also several other standalone features scattered throughout the park. The play surface is wood chips and while the concrete borders provide a place to sit, additional benches and improved landscaping that could create some shade would make this space more comfortable.
