"Palmisano Park, formerly known as Stearns Quarry, is a 26.60-acre site on Chicago’s southwest side in the heart of the Bridgeport community." Palmisano Park (Chicago Park District)
"This is a dynamic park, with a fishing pond, interpretive wetlands, preserved quarry walls, trails, an athletic field, a running track, and a hill that offers dramatic views. Over 1.7 miles of paths, including recycled timber boardwalks, concrete walks, a crushed stone running path, and metal grating walkways traverse the park. These trails allow for a variety of experiences along the quarry wall, across the terracing wetlands, and down to the pond. Scenic overlooks provide dramatic overviews of the pond and wetlands, and spectacular city views can be seen from the mound." Palmisano Park (Chicago Park District)
