Unity Park
Restroom in north end of the park.
In 1968, the city agreed to turn over an L-shaped, quarter-acre section of the Kimball Avenue parking facility to the Chicago Park District, which installed playground equipment at the site. Beginning in 1987, the Park District began working with a community group to develop a plan for upgrading the park with additional playground equipment and plantings. Improvements were completed in part through residents’ active participation. Problems in an adjacent city parking lot in the late 1990s led to the transformation of that parking lot into a three-quarter-acre expansion for Unity Park. The Chicago Park District installed a new playground in the park.
