Address and Location of the Park.
Google Maps

Community Park West
1000 Zenith Drive
Glenview, IL 60025

Skatepark - skateparks - skate parks - skateboard park - Glenview Skate Park, Glenview*Illinois

Its a pretty decent skatepark, ive been there like 5-6 times. Its located Right next to the AON not ABT do not turn in by ABT. turn in by the AON. Its a good park but it gets boring after a while. They have a half pipe which is pretty much pointless because no one uses it. They have a few boxes, rails which are fun, roll ins, spines. Come check it out on SATURDAY October 7th AROUND 11am-4pm

It is located south of the ABT building off Milwaukee, North of Glenview Rd. The street you turn West off Milwaukee onto is sort of obscure and looks like the parking lot of an office building.

I am bringing some hot dogs and buns and condiments, but I think we should grab something to eat still or something.
