History:

North Adams Park, referred to as a small “pocket park,” offers a secluded quaint refuge along the Fox River. The property was purchased in 2008, 2010, and 2015 with grant assistance. In 2014, the Park District received $10,000—half of which came from ComEd Green Communities and half from a memorial donation to help fund the construction of the limestone outcropping seating and fishing area.
