Jointly owned by the Village and Park District, this former school parking lot is the jewel of the downtown area. Bench-lined brick walkways with beautiful ornamental trees radiate from the show piece central fountain. Seasonal concerts and special events are a regular occurrence at this park. North School Park was purchased in 1988 by the Park District and Village of Arlington Heights. Once owned by Village founder, Asa Dunton, the site was designated to remain open space for the Village children. Developed as a focal point for the downtown business district, this site boasts such amenities as a display fountain, accessible playground, brick walkways with seating and lighting, unique landscaping and a performance amphitheater.
