Roosevelt Park

A Piece of Grand Rapids History

Found in the heart of Grand Rapids, Roosevelt Park has been a beloved green retreat since 1922. At 8 acres, it's not the biggest park you'll discover, but what it lacks in size, it makes up for in character and community spirit.

What's There to Do?

Kids will make a beeline for the modern playground - a welcome sight for parents looking to burn off some of that endless energy their little ones seem to have. If you're more interested in your own workout, the fitness center is available for combining fresh air with your exercise routine.

Looking for a more laid-back experience? Grab your favorite snacks and claim one of the picnic tables scattered around the grounds. There's something special about dining al fresco under Michigan skies.

One of the park's lesser-known features is its access to Plaster Creek, where you can enjoy a moment of tranquility amid urban life. The gentle sounds of flowing water make for a great backdrop when you need a quiet minute to yourself.

Far From Just a Park

Roosevelt Park is more than just a patch of green - it's an important part of the Roosevelt Park neighborhood. This area carries a rich history and has a sense of community you might notice when visiting.

If you're looking for a quick escape from city life or a place to connect with neighbors, this modest but meaningful park functions as both a recreational space and a spot for community events.
