About the program
Launched by Mayor Emanuel and the Chicago Park District in March 2013, the new “Chicago Plays!” Playground Program is a five-year playground renovation project. The intentions of the program are to upgrade all playgrounds to new standards and provide safe and maintainable play equipment for the next generation.The program targets the replacement of equipment at over 300 aging playgrounds throughout the city. The Chicago Park District is working with Park Advisory Councils and the Friends of the Parks closely in the implementation of this program.
