★★★★Featured review by Penny Hoene

Very nice playground with athletic fields adjacent. Citizens need to be more proactive with helping to keep community area clean

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with older children and teens who play organised sports, alongside younger kids who can use the playground as siblings participate in field activities. The multi-sport infrastructure makes it one of the most activity-dense parks in Roxbury.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Street parking on Whittier St and surrounding roads fills fast on weekends — allow extra time to find a space
The upper field has a running track, useful for parents wanting to exercise as kids play
🎟️Check for scheduled games on the turf fields before visiting — field availability can be sparse during league play

Great complex. 2 turf fields. Top has a full size football/Soccer field with a track. Bottom has a Baseball field and a softball field. Parking is super tough as you'll have to park on the street.

Overview

Madison Park Playground in Boston's Roxbury neighborhood sits within a larger athletic complex at Whittier Street. The site combines a playground area with two turf fields — the upper level holds a full-size football and soccer field with a running track, and the lower level has baseball and softball diamonds. The multi-sport layout means the park serves a wide age range simultaneously. Street parking is the only option and fills quickly on game days.
