The Preserve

The Preserve converted a former golf course into an interactive nature park and play space for all ages. The park includes Gateway and Connector multi-use trails, interior destination pathways, and meandering nature trails. Restored natural areas wind through the park while turf areas provide space for programmed activities, special events, and picnics. The site responds to fluctuating water levels within Skokie River, creating an ephemeral experience that changes with the time, day, and season. Specialty gardens and overlooks provide spaces for people to connect with nature.
