Seward Park

Chicago, Illinois

Welcome to Chicago's Seward Park located in the Near North neighborhood. This park was first established in 1908 and is named after William Seward who was Secretary of State under President Lincoln. The purchase of Alaska was called Seward's Folly but the fact is that the United States would not be the same without the great State of Alaska.

This park offers many athletic programs for people of all ages. The facilities all have lights so people can play at night. To contact the office please call 312-742-7895.
