HISTORY & WILDLIFE
Prestonfield Park was acquired in 2007. The 5.23-acre neighborhood park features open play areas, a pavilion, a playground, a walking trail, and a wetland buffer.
The area near Prestonfield is considered a forested/shrub wetland with cattails, giant goldenrods, and a variety of other plant life. In 2023, the West Chicago Park District’s Parks Department started a project to remove invasive plants, such as buckthorn and honeysuckle.
