About the Location
Park Overview
Located in Arlington, Texas, W.O. & Zeta Workman Park (or simply Workman Park) offers 9.2 acres of neighborhood charm that locals have come to love. This public space has carved out its identity as a community gathering spot where you can escape the urban hustle without leaving the city. With a mix of natural areas and practical facilities, it's the kind of place where you can breathe a little easier. And yes, it's consistently clean, quiet, and well-kept - sometimes the simple things matter most.
Trail System
Feeling like a casual stroll or morning jog? The park's 0.37-mile bike and hike trail meanders through the grounds, fantastic for those days when you need to clear your head or get your steps in.
What's particularly cool is that this trail connects to the broader Lynn Creek Trail network, so if you're feeling ambitious, you can extend your adventure beyond Workman's boundaries and explore more of Arlington's green spaces.
Recreational Facilities
Got some energy to burn? The basketball court is ready for your next pickup game, while the practice field offers plenty of space for team sports or just tossing a frisbee around.
There's also a baseball field area available for channeling your inner major leaguer. And don't worry if baseball isn't your thing - these open spaces work just as well for a friendly game of soccer or football.
Playground Areas
Kids need their own space too, which is why Workman Park thoughtfully includes two separate playground areas. One is designed specifically for the little ones aged 2-5, while the other caters to the 5-12 crowd, ensuring everyone has age-appropriate equipment to climb, slide, and swing on.
These playgrounds really are the heart of this family-friendly park - just listen for the inevitable giggles and you'll come across them.
Community Amenities
When hunger strikes or you just need a spot to relax, you'll find picnic areas and a shelter available. They're ideal for everything from impromptu lunches to planned family gatherings. The surrounding open fields provide plenty of space to spread out a blanket or set up lawn games.
Nestled among residential areas, Workman Park gives nearby residents an easy outdoor escape. It's not trying to be a destination park - it's content being that reliable green space that enhances the neighborhood's quality of life.
Additional Features
Here's something unexpected: tech meets nature at Workman Park with two Pokemon Go gyms and three Pokestops scattered throughout the grounds. You might notice players with phones in hand, hunting digital creatures among the real-world trees.
The park welcomes visitors from 5AM to 10PM daily, giving you plenty of time to enjoy all it has to offer, whether you're an early bird or prefer evening outings.
