Christy Park, Public park in Princeton Heights, St. Louis, Missouri.
Christy Park is a public park in Princeton Heights with various recreational and sports facilities for all age groups. The grounds feature green spaces, playgrounds, walking paths, baseball fields, and fitness stations spread across the property.
The park was founded in 1910 and named after William Tandy Christy, founder of a local brick manufacturing company. It was designed from the start as a community space for the neighborhood.
The park serves as a gathering place where neighbors meet and spend time together, especially on the baseball fields where local teams compete regularly. The benches and pathways encourage people to linger and create a space for everyday community connections.
The park is accessible by public bus service and has multiple entrances, including one at Christy and Kingshighway near the firehouse. It is best to visit earlier in the day when the sports fields are less in use.
The northeast section features its own fitness equipment and an archery range, setting it apart from typical neighborhood parks. These specialized facilities make it a versatile destination for different interests.
