Whiting skate park

In June, 2004, Whiting opened a new 5,000 square foot concrete skate park, designed and built by Grindline, near Standard Diamond baseball fields. Unlike most skate parks that I've seen it doesn't consist of a series of metal ramps but instead is two bowls with concrete formations.

On the Saturday afternoon when we stopped by there were 4 or 5 guys with skateboards and several with inline skates.

Free to the public.

Directions: Near Standard Diamond baseball fields, just off 119th Street

Theme: Other

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars

I was a little skeptical when my husband said that people surfed on Lake Michigan but as you can see from the attached photo, indeed they do. He says that the beach at Whiting Park has the best spot in the Midwest for surfing.
