Portage Park, Public park in northwest Chicago, Illinois.
The 38-acre park contains five baseball fields, two soccer fields, six tennis courts, a bike path, and a nature walk across landscaped grounds.
The park's name derives from Native American routes connecting Des Plaines and Chicago Rivers, used for canoe transportation between waterways.
The National Veterans Art Museum, located near the park, exhibits combat-inspired artwork created by veterans from different generations.
The park features an Olympic-size swimming pool with a sun deck, misting sprays, and designated areas for children's water activities.
The fieldhouse, designed by architect Clarence Hatzfeld in 1920, exemplifies prairie-style architecture with its horizontal lines and natural materials.
