Located in the neighborhood of Douglas, Williams Park covers 6.67 acres and offers an athletic field and playground, as well as horseshoe, tennis, and basketball courts. A recently-installed interactive waterplay area offers community children relief from Chicago’s hot summers.
The PBC’s work at Williams Park consists of the construction of an 11,000-square-foot fieldhouse and associated site work. The single-story building will be home to an entry lobby and reception area, gymnasium with storage and multipurpose club rooms for art, education, performances, meetings and exercise. Site improvements include a new spray pool, bike racks, landscaping, exterior lighting, and concrete sidewalks and benches.
“The Chicago Park District strives to make modern state of the art facilities available to Chicago residents. The new community center will do exactly that, while also providing safe learning and gathering spaces, for the children and families of this community.”
– Park District CEO Michael P. Kelly
