Looking at homes for sale in Washington Park? If you are new to the area, you’ll hear the locals refer to the neighborhood as “Wash Park”. A gem in its own right, it has a cozy neighborhood feel, yet it is close enough the downtown area to enjoy the shops, restaurants, and festivities that the residents like to enjoy on a regular basis.

The neighborhood is known for the park of the same name, Washington Park. This area is 165 acres, and whether you want to take a stroll, relax with a book, have a picnic with friends, or take an energizing jog, Washington Park is simply delightful. On any given day, you’ll find kids playing and laughing, couples strolling along, and friends enjoying various outdoor activities.

Mayan Theater

Not really in the Wash Park neighborhood, but not far away on South Broadway, the Mayan Theater is a must-see. Art Lovers and movie fans alike enjoy the Mayan Theater. Opening in 1930, it is of the Art Deco Mayan Revival Style. Surrounded by art galleries, the Mayan Theater features three screens, one downstairs theater, two upstairs theaters, and stadium seating.
