Riverside Park is located between the Riverwest and East Side communities, along the east bank of the Milwaukee River. Riverside Park features a baseball field, sled hill, playground, tennis courts and hiking trails. It is the home of the Riverside branch of the Urban Ecology Center. The “green” building that houses this branch is home to live animals, informational exhibits and user-friendly resource materials about the environment. Riverside Park includes 15 acres of wooded land, a riparian habitat and an imaginative habitat-themed playground.
