Glen Park is a 40.58 acre park located southwest of the downtown district.
The park was established in July of 1898. It is the City’s oldest park and even had a zoo at one point
The Glen Park Pool was built as a Civil Works Administration project under President Franklin D. Roosevelt's "New Deal" during the Great Depression. Work on the pool began in 1933 and continued through 1937.
Some highlights of the park include: the trails connecting to the Kinnickinnic Pathway to the north, River Hills Park to the south and the Kinnickinnic River; a public swimming pool and splash pad, many large trees, grass, paths, playground equipment, and Pickleball courts. Pedestrian access can be found at the Swinging Bridge to the northeast from Cascade Avenue, along Glen Park Road and Park Street.
The shelter buildings can be reserved online beginning the first Monday of each year. January and February reservations open on the first Monday of each November. Check shelter availability and prices and see photos at riverfalls.activityreg.com
