History
The Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York donated this park site near O'Hare Airport to the 快播视频 in 1997. At the request of the community, the Park District officially designated the site Grandparents Park in 1998. Shortly after the park's creation, a neighborhood advisory group suggested the name, and, ever since, the park has been known as Grandparents Park by neighborhood residents. The advisory group believed that the new playlot's most frequent users would be grandparents and their visiting grandchildren, who would need more room to play than is generally available in the neighborhood's small yards.
