overview
Prospect Park is the oldest park in Ypsilanti's recreation system. The 9.5 acre park is located immediately adjacent to the historic district in the northeast corner of the city. Prospect Park provides a mix of recreation opportunities. The north end has a multi-purpose field, play equipment, basketball, tennis courts and picnic facilities while mature trees, pathways and picnic facilities can be found at the south end of the park. Luna Lake, a small pond with a fountain, was once the prime focus of activities in Prospect Park's earliest days.
