A small contemporary urban park with such a beautiful view. West of the loop, this is a must see for tourists and photographers. Over decades this area has become a warehouse district to now and upscale residential area. There is a children’s playground included.

I manage the farmers market held Saturday’s in our beautiful park! During COVID-19 we still had Famers, yoga on the Hill, kids, dogs, families, singles spending time in the Park. The Market received great reviews from the City and shoppers as we were all able to execute safety protocols. Hoping we can get back to ‘normal’ next season.

The official Chicago Park website describes the Bartelme Park Playground like this: "The children's play area offers ADA accessibility that allows for inventive, non-linear play without traditional play equipment." Inventive, non-linear, and non-traditional are all great adjectives to describe this playground in the West Loop. The fully enclosed playground uses the rubber surface itself as a play element; there are steep inclines and valleys that invite play. Most of the elements are indeed non-traditional. While there are a few slides, there are no swings or monkey bars in this playground. Instead there is elaborate "jungle gym" structure made of belts of black rubber, a rope climbing structure, and a smaller structure for younger children. The play area is fully enclosed and there are several picnic tables that make this a comfortable playground in a new and beautifully landscaped park. The park also includes some interesting, geometric arches that have a gentle water misting feature (though they are hard to activate) as well as some grassy hills for playing. Highly recommend.

Very nice and clean park. You should come and get chill.

Nice park. Kids 3-10 will like playing here. Also dog friendly play area. Near downtown and target close by.

Took my daughter here for her 1yr bday cupcake. The park has tons of hill's and padding for the kids lots to do, as well as a dog park. But you can bring your dog anywhere you want. I wish they had parks like this when I was a kid.

My daughter, dog, and I enjoyed this small park one evening. There is a playground, a lit up walkway, a large steel archway art piece with plenty of sitting for its size and a dog park with a plastic water pool and running water in summers. Our dog enjoyed the park and it was nice to find free poop bags at 2 sides. Small but nice. We 3 will visit again. By the way...paid street parking.

I decided to visit all Chicago public parks with my very active almost 2 yr old. Bartelme park is a nice park with a gated playground for kids and a separate one for your furry friend. It is not a big park. If you want to walk around it would take you approximately half hour to do so. Parking is a hassle and may end up paying. Also for those with little ones the playground is mostly for bigger kids and I didn't see no swings at sight. Playground can get crowded lo n the a.m. and there are a few trees surrounding it but it's mostly exposed.

Beautiful park and perfect spot for a photo op

It is an oasis in the West Loop. A very safe place, always full of families. Huge fenced in kids play area, large dog park, cool sculpture, nice grassy hills. So many food trucks here in the summer. It is just a wonderful place to hang out. I love to lay in the grass and soak up the sun. It is a good drone location. I love this park.

It has an incredible dog park. You need to go on the summer to enjoy beautiful sunsets with friends and family

Nice hills

Really nice peaceful park. There's no parking however. I really wish there was benches/tables to eat but you can easily have a picnic on the grassy hills. There's a lot of places to have activities and even a dog park and neat sculpture. There's something here for everyone!

Dog park, children’s playground, plenty of grass area to spread out and relax. Great location for Greek town & west loop. An oasis in the middle of hustle and bustle. The dog park always has 4 legged friends at it, busy times are packed. Sometimes food trucks will be on the street parked. Often on weekend nights groups of family’s will be posted up as well.

My dog, Marcy, says this dog park is great. She says it would be perfect if the doggo water fountain wasn’t always out of order. It be like McDonald’s ice cream machine

This place is good for dogs, dog owners, people who look like dogs, people who act like dogs, people with dog fetish, and all things related to dog.

This is a great park in the heart of the West loop. The playground is perfect for older kids and there's a mist spraying sculpture to run under. The dog park is fun but my small dog is too timid to play in there.

This is a very plastic play park. It's interesting and has lots of structures but there's very little greenery, natural areas or trees. It feels very tight and crowded with the artificial rubber covered hills of the play ground, and the chaos of the dog park area makes it feel very busy and loud. Don't go here if you want to relax or do something like read quietly in the park! It's an active playground, not a park.

Lovely neighborhood park with a nice dog park, children's play area and wild native flowers. There's always something happening here from farmers market to food trucks to movie nights! Great anchor for a sense of community in this neighborhood

Great park for kids ages 4-12, but I'd say the majority is 4-8 yo kids. Lots of different equipment for all ages, elevation changes, motor skills challenges, or creative play. Enough comfortable spaces for parents to sit and watch too. Dog park run area is separate and fenced in. Signs say no dogs except in there, but there are dogs everywhere, so that part can get annoying with watching your step or around the kids in the large middle area between. Water mist from the artistic arches is nice in the Summer and a great food truck spot too. A few free parking spots around if you look hard enough, but you can always find a paid parking spot if needed too.

Well maintained park with enclosed off lease zone for dogs. Farmers market located here during the summer months on weekends. Nice little escape is west loop.

Exquisite area park with a pleasant canine park, youngsters' play region and wild local blossoms. There's continually something occurring here from ranchers market to food trucks to film evenings! Incredible anchor for a feeling of local area around here

Cute and concise park with a beautiful view. Always fun seeing all the different dogs, and the layout is very spacious making it easy to socially distance yourself from others!

Very nice park with separate playground areas for the different age groups. Loved the track/obstacle course

Relaxing place to have a walk or take the dogs out.

You have to see it

I'm a big fan of this park. Great little enclosed dog park although it can get a little crowded at times. I'm updating this review to remove a star because the dog park remains so crowded much of the time and I've lately experienced increasing instances of irresponsible owners letting an aggressive dog attack other dogs with little control. With so little space the close contact exacerbates the problem. There's also a good sized playground for kids. Finally there is ample lawn space to chill and enjoy the day along with misting stations for the extra hot days. The lawn areas are hills so if you're looking for a place for sports I would head down the road to Skinner park instead. There are also plenty of special events throughout the warmer months including food and drink (including alcohol) trucks, movie nights, and a great farmer's market on the weekends.

Green Street farmers market is right beside this, and had a great selection for the middle of October. I really did not know Brussels sprouts grew on stalks..

Great spot just outside downtown, downtown. Be prepared to get dressed to the nines. There might be free parking on the south side. Not "perfect" for the toddler, because she'll make you work for the fun. Up the hill, down the hill, up the hills down the slides, repeat. Fun and there was more grass areas besides the mighty jungle gym, just seems like it's an older oriented gym. Has a dog park, always a plus in the city.

Beautiful park with sculpture, grassy knolls for picnics, dog parks, and playground!

Took my son here to kill time while we wait on his mom to get off of work. He really enjoyed it. Lot of activities to work on his skills

A very pleasant and well designed neighborhood park, with various zones and programs for everyone, including a small dog park (all concrete though).

This is such a cool little and well used park! It's adjacent to my daughter's apartment so a great place to walk her pooch. Everytime I visited, it was clean and nice. Love these public spaces...

Great park in the west loop to let our toddler enjoy the playground and dog watch. Fun times in the warmer months with the farmers market and fall time is still great. If only we could solve the mystery of how/ when the metal structure mist. Seen it a few times.

Cool park but it was so hot. Not sure who decided black would be good for a park when it can be super hot.

No swings, not shaded but a lot of climbing and more advanced equipment for older kids that I don't see at other playgrounds

There is a dog run which is great. I just wish that the dogs were not allowed in the grass areas where we can sit. I have sat in pee before and it's gross.

Bartelme park is very good. It's always happening as many of the activities are planned here like Halloween, diwali, etc. They provide many freebies and chocolates to the kid.

Great food Soda tastes weird been there many times same taste Server's very attentive

A nice little park in the West loop. Saturday Green City Market.

Great for an impromptu photo shoot! Dog park and friendly dog walkers, moms & strollers too!

(Translated by Google) There is good customer service (Original) Hay una buena atención con los clientes

That park is truly great ...my dog really enjoyed himself everyone is so friendly .... From the people to the dogs 😍😍 we will definitely be returning

Great place for a picnic and people watching.

Nice

The baby I nanny and I always go there to watch the dogs at dog park and we just sit and hangout, also! Would recommend for kids

Beautiful park with a great view of Chicago.

Good

We love this park. My daughter lives across the street and I walk the dog there whenever we visit. It's a very social place for dogs and dog lovers. It has a fenced-in dog area as well. It's kept up and there's a great farmer's market on Saturdays.

Cool park to picnic at in the summer, dog park is a bit small and filled with large dogs but does the trick

It is a small square park, but it is enjoyable. This park offers mounds that visitors can picnic and relax on and view the area around them. The yard is well kept. Not a lot of options for shade, there are a few trees, but this is a sunbathers paradise. There are a couple of sculptures to beautify the space. There are walk ways around and through the park. On many days there will be one food truck, so you can easily grab a bite to eat or grab a non-alcoholic beverage. This park also offers a designated dog park also. So bring your pooch. The neighborhood is nice and safe. If you are getting here by car, you will end up paying for parking. It is about $5-6 per hour at City of Chicago parking meters.

Zoey loves the dog park. Skinner is nice also, but I like that this one is smaller. Great during the summer weekends.

This is a beautiful place to walk your dogs and shoot the breeze in the windy city. The amount of benches around the park give your pooch ample play space while you watch them roll run bounch around with others. Spice it up by taking an rc car and attaching a flag to get the dogs running for hours of fun and laughter

Popular little park. Has dog and kid friendly areas. Fairly new I guess; not so many trees yet. Too many people for bird watching unless you count pigeons, sparrows, and starlings.

Beautiful park with lots of green space and a lovely dog park. There's also a great farmers market during warm weather. Love this park.

Our 50lb rescue loves this place! Runs around like a bird out of a cage. Our 15lb rescue, not so much. There are some small dogs running around like little generals, but ours is timid.

Peaceful 🤓😷😎

I like the family friendly atmosphere, but overall the park is kinda small and not much shade. Overall its neat.

I work down the street and love to take my breaks here.isually a quietittle park.

Mary Bartelme Park is surrounded by a median income of 500.000 a year, so it shows with the police presence, the family surroundings, and the upkeep of the park that never closes..

It's a nice place to go for a family or an individual.

Great amount of flat green space for picnics

Great for dogs & the entire family! You can walk, jog or just enjoy its natural wonders. I love walking with the dogs along the beach most especially

Cute park with skyline views in the middle of the West Loop. Great for walking your dog (and they have a dog park/run!), having a socially distant picnic with friends, laying out on the grass with a drink and a good book, or just sitting under the share of a tree to people watch.

Good place for kids. Also nice place to do picnic with family

It's the perfect neighborhood park.

great neighborhood park for a walk everyday

Great dog park and fun to spend time with kids

We brought our dog to the dog park. The park was clean and not very crowded for a warm Saturday evening.

Quiet and safe
