Union Park

Play & Recreation

Tucked away on N. Salina Street in Syracuse, Union Park offers a welcome splash of green amid the urban landscape. This local park provides a breathing space for locals looking to step away from the city hustle.

Kids will immediately spot the modern playground with its eye-catching slides and swings - and thoughtfully, the equipment includes accessible options for children with disabilities. When summer temperatures climb, the popular spray feature becomes the park's main attraction, with laughter and squeals accompanying every splash.

Layout & Location

What makes Union Park work so well is its thoughtful design that balances active play areas with quieter spaces. Nestled between a service road and the thruway on Syracuse's lower Northwest side, it's conveniently positioned for neighborhood residents to reach by foot.

The spacious picnic area invites family gatherings and impromptu lunch breaks alike. Take a moment to appreciate the open grassy spaces great for frisbee tosses or simply sprawling out with a good book. The paved paths wind through the grounds, ideal for casual strolls or parents keeping pace with newly-biking children.

Visitor Basics

One practical feature that makes longer visits more comfortable: the park maintains clean restroom facilities on site. Dog owners will be pleased to know the park is pet-friendly, so your four-legged family members can enjoy some outdoor time too.

Recent Updates

The city hasn't let Union Park stagnate. Recent years have seen noticeable improvements, including the installation of new playground equipment and various amenity upgrades.

These enhancements show Syracuse's commitment to maintaining its community spaces.
