    The Teddy Roosevelt Park is an enormous dog park, which is great for a long stroll. There are multiple tennis courts with great shade lines and sunny areas. The foot traffic can be a discouraging but there is a wholesome atmosphere. Almost awesome!

    Roosevelt park is a great parked tucked away in a very quiet residential neighborhood. Next to the busy streets of Roosevelt and Clark but fenced in. The park itself is a large open space that’s great for dogs to roam freely without the fear of running into the street. There’s no through traffic. There are also 3 tennis courts within the park and a swing set. The tennis courts are outdated and need to be repaved but still useable just not the best experience. Overall great park just needs to be kept up a bit more.

    Absolutely adore this park! It's right in the middle of a busy area but the way it's tucked away in a residential neighborhood makes it pretty quiet and chill. Great place to work out too with the pull up and parallel bars.

    Two new dedicated pickleball courts as well as two new tennis courts. Wish they added more pickleball courts since they get packed!

    It has calisthenics workout bars! Pull up and dip bars, the closest calisthenics park I found to the Millennium park. It also has tennis courts, playground for kids and it is dog friendly.

    Courts are cracked and makes the ball bounce a little funny, but otherwise a great space in the city!

    A quiet out-of-the-way park, perfect for playing catch with the kids. There's also a tennis court.

    Its pretty easy to forget you are in the middle of the city. Secluded in that there is no thru traffic access and it is closed off except for the two north corners. Great for kids, dogs, chillin
