Cornell (Paul) Square Park
4.1 (294)park
Olmsted landscaping and a Burnham fieldhouse anchor this historic Back of the Yards park, home to ballfields and a pool.
Description






Across its nearly nine acres, the grounds balance active recreation and neighborhood gathering. Indoors, the fieldhouse holds two gymnasiums, an auditorium, and a kitchen for local events and rentals. Outside, the parkland offers basketball courts, an artificial turf soccer field, and a playground alongside an interactive water spray feature. Community rhythm revolves around scheduled youth day camps, after-school programs, and seasonal neighborhood gatherings such as outdoor movie nights.
