Chicago Sights

Ping Tom Memorial Park

Ping Tom Memorial Park Review

Four pillars carved with dragon designs grace the entrance of this park, one half block west of 19th and Wentworth streets. Its 12 beautifully landscaped acres are wedged within the shadows of railroad tracks, cranes, and highways. It is a serene place with a children's playground and winding walking trails. On the shore of the Chicago River, a large yellow-and-red pagoda is a good place to see the boats float by and the looming Chicago skyline to the north.
