About Barry Park

Where It's At

Barry Park sits nestled in Lynn, Massachusetts, offering 9.8 acres of green escape from the urban bustle. You'll discover this communal area along Boston Street, tucked between Laurel and Cottage Streets.

Play Your Way

Whether you're an athlete or just looking to have some fun, Barry Park offers several options. The youth softball/soccer field welcomes both organized teams and impromptu kickarounds. Ballers can hit the basketball court while tennis enthusiasts serve up matches on the dedicated tennis court.

The park proudly functions as home base for the Lynn Rams football and cheerleading programs - local legends who've brought home national championships. Talk about hometown pride!

For the little ones, there's a freshly remodeled playground featuring an impressive slide that kids absolutely love. When winter blankets the ground, part of the park transforms into an ice skating area, keeping the fun going year-round.

Fresh Additions

The park keeps getting better! In 2022, a fully fenced splash pad made its debut as part of a multi-year improvement project largely funded by a PARC Grant. This colorful water play area with interactive features offers an excellent cool-down spot during summer heat waves.

New accessible pathways have been added too, making the park more welcoming for everyone. At the northern edge by the parking lot, a stormwater management project is in the works to help tackle flooding issues - practical improvements that make a difference.

What You'll Find

The park's mature shade trees provide welcome relief from the summer sun. There are plenty of seating areas and tables scattered throughout, great for enjoying a sandwich or just taking a breather while watching the kids play.

The convenient parking lot means you won't have to circle the block looking for a spot. Between the shady retreats, open fields, and various facilities, there's something here for just about everyone.

Community Heart

Barry Park functions as a community gathering place where Lynn residents come to play, relax, and connect. Many locals have been visiting for decades, with some families now bringing their third generation to the park.
