Palmer Park

It was not clean at all outside

[This review is focused on the playground] Located in the northwest corner of the park, the Palmer Park playgrounds include two play areas and a water spray feature. One area is for younger children and features a smaller play structure with a small slide and low to the ground monkey bars. The other area is for older children and features a larger structure as well as some unique and interesting climbing elements. There are also sets of standard Park District swings (toddler, adaptive with harness, and belt seat) as well as a water spray feature (there is also a pool with water slide but that's not part of the playground). The play area is not enclosed and opens into the rest of the park. There are a few benches and tress for seating and shade though the area itself can be bright and sunny. The play surface is wood chips and the nearby fieldhouse provides access to bathrooms (when open). All in all, this is a solid neighborhood playground.

Palmer Park could use more garbage cans to eliminate trash and excessive debris build up

Nice sized park. Great staff! If you are running however, it's best to do it early in the morning. The area can get a little weird later in the day.
