Located in the Douglas Community Area, Anderson Park totals 1 acre. The park is named for attorney Louis B. Anderson, who served as 2nd Ward alderman from 1917 to 1933. 

Anderson Park offers indoor and outdoor basketball courts and a playground that was recently renovated as part of the Chicago Plays! playground initiative.

The park sits adjacent to the Mayo Elementary School and Ida B. Wells Preparatory Elementary School campus and shares a baseball field with these schools. In the fieldhouse, the park offers a gymnasium and a meeting room. Many of these spaces are available for rental for children's parties, community meetings and other events. 

After school programs are offered throughout the school year, and in the summer youth attend the Park District’s popular six-week day camp. The park also hosts special events throughout the year including Night Out in the Parks and Movies in the Park events.
