Oak Park

Scoville Park acts as a village green in central Oak Park, with lawns, recreation space and prominent public memorials.

Its setting near other civic and cultural buildings makes it easy to combine a pause outdoors with exploring the surrounding streets.

Consult the park district’s calendar for organized events and current facility information. The photograph shows the World War I memorial within the park, rather than an indoor military-history display. Read the interpretation from public paths and leave space around monuments and planted areas for other visitors.
