Virginia Park

Virginia Park is a 4.97-acre neighborhood park located west of downtown Ann Arbor, Michigan, at the intersection of Virginia Avenue and Fair Street. The park offers an inviting blend of recreational amenities and natural beauty, making it a valuable resource for the surrounding community. It is characterized by its mature shade trees, including a stately row of tall sycamores along Virginia Avenue, and ample open green spaces.

The park features several facilities catering to diverse interests. It includes a softball field, soccer goal, basketball court, and a playground with accessible asphalt pathways. For visitors looking to relax or socialize, there are picnic tables and benches distributed across the park. A drinking fountain is also available, ensuring convenience for those using the space.

Street parking is available along Virginia Avenue and nearby neighborhood streets, and there is a small parking lot with limited spaces, including a designated handicapped spot, at the end of Siller Terrace. However, park visitors are expected to observe parking restrictions for spaces allocated to neighboring apartments. Virginia Park is easily accessible by foot or bicycle, with nearby Liberty Street providing bike lanes and sidewalks. Public transportation is also a viable option, as a bus stop on Liberty Street is just a few hundred feet away. While the park is well-connected, it notably lacks bike racks.

Virginia Park operates daily from 6 a.m. to midnight, and visitors are expected to follow the City of Ann Arbor's park regulations. Its picturesque environment and amenities make it a welcoming spot for recreational activities and casual outings in a serene neighborhood setting.
