About the Location

Local Gem Since 1958

Fairview Park is a modest yet valuable recreational space established in 1958. Spanning nine acres, it is a neighborhood park bordered by Griffiths Avenue to the north, 19th Street to the east, and residential homes on its southern and western edges.

The park is easily accessible and situated within a quiet residential area, making it a convenient spot for local families and community activities.

Baseball Facilities

The park features three baseball diamonds, with one specifically equipped for the Sandy Koufax League. This large diamond includes lights, an announcer's box, and extensive bleacher seating, ideal for evening games and community events.

There is a restroom and concession building located nearby, providing added convenience for park visitors.

Parking and Accessibility

Parking facilities are available along Griffiths Avenue, with spaces for about 50 cars, including designated handicapped spots.

A new parking area accessible from 19th Street has replaced a former basketball court, offering additional accessibility.

Amenities for All Ages

Young visitors can enjoy a small playground designated for children, making the park family-friendly.

The park is also equipped with several picnic tables, perfect for casual outdoor meals or gatherings. While it does not feature expansive amenities, the park's quiet atmosphere and functional layout make it a reliable spot for local sports, leisure, and community engagement.
