Description

Oz Park is a public park in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago. It is located at the corner of Lincoln and Webster, just south of the Lincoln, Halsted, and Fullerton intersection. The park borders Lincoln Park High School and features many statues fashioned after characters in The Wizard of Oz.

The 13.32-acre (53,900 m2) park has one walking/biking trail, which is 0.61 miles (980 m) long.[5] To go along with the Wizard of Oz theme, the park's garden is named "The Emerald Garden", and the playground is called "Dorothy's Playlot." The Emerald Garden (located at the corner of Webster and Larrabee) features flowers through which guests may walk.

Take a stroll through the park and you’ll be greeted by statues of the Tin Man, Scarecrow, Cowardly Lion, and everyone’s favorite, Dorothy & Toto.
