Schenley Park, Urban municipal park in Oakland, Pittsburgh, United States
The park encompasses 456 acres of land between Oakland, Greenfield, and Squirrel Hill neighborhoods, featuring wooded trails, sports facilities, and open spaces.
Mary Schenley donated the initial land in 1889, leading to the creation of this park under architect Edward Manning Bigelow's supervision and design.
The Neill Log House, dating from 1787, stands within the park grounds as one of the earliest structures from Pittsburgh's settlement period.
Visitors can access multiple recreational facilities including tennis courts, hiking trails, an ice skating rink, swimming pool, and the Bob O'Connor Golf Course.
Since 1983, the park transforms into a race circuit annually for the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix, combining motorsports with public green space.
