The park, which is located at Erie and Kingsbury Streets, borders the north branch of the Chicago River and is home to a beautiful children’s play lot, a river edge habitat, a water taxi stop and the RNRA sponsored Taste of River North, the summer movie festival and themed family events.
Dogs are not allowed in the main park area. There is a Dog Friendly Area (DFA) outside of the main park with a separate entrance located on Larrabee St. just north of Erie St. The Ward Park DFA is a fenced, off-leash area for supervised dog recreation.
