Christy Park

Christy Park is a 16.1-acre urban green space located in south St. Louis, Missouri. Established in 1910, the park is named after William Tandy Christy, who founded the firm that became the Laclede-Christy Fire Brick Company.

The park begins at the intersection of Christy Boulevard and Kingshighway, near a notable firehouse. It extends southward, offering various recreational areas for visitors. One of the park's distinctive features is the Weasel Baseball Field, which has become a focal point for local baseball enthusiasts. This sandlot-style field has been maintained and improved over the years, hosting pickup games and organized leagues.

Christy Park spans across Gravois Avenue, widening as it approaches Holly Hills Boulevard. The northeastern side of Christy Boulevard primarily consists of open green space, while the southern portion houses additional facilities. The park serves the surrounding neighborhoods of Bevo Mill and Princeton Heights, providing a communal outdoor space for residents and visitors alike.
