3. Garfield Park

WEST SIDE.   Traditional street lamps, a historic bandstand, and a gold-domed, Baroque-style field house set the tone of Garfield Park. Over 130 years old, the park offers 185-acres of playing fields, walking paths, and picnic areas. Both visitors and locals alike enjoy the park, which was designed by William Le Baron Jenney and renamed following the assassination of President Garfield. The park's conservatory also offers lovely indoor and outdoor gardens. A great stop if you're looking for a quick jog, walk, or a casual bike ride.   (© 10Best)

I selected this park to have a quiet picnic and to fly a kite in; the park is beautiful w/the exception of loitering in vehicles and sketchy visitors. The area is highly patrolled, but I felt extremely anxious. Maybe just stick to the consevatory on this one.
