Msgr. McGolrick Park
Description
This glorious, nine-plus acre neighborhood park will transport you to another place—or another era, even—thanks to sprawling lawns, grand arches, and two monuments that were restored in 1985: a World War I memorial and a sculpture dedicated to the battle of the ironclad ships Monitor and Merrimack during the Civil War. For kids, there’s a great playground too, housing a big whale at the center for them to slide down.
