Formerly Gale Park, Willye B. White Park was renamed in 2008 for the Olympic track and field medalist. It boasts the Park District’s newest field house, which sparked controversy last summer when alderman Joe Moore’s proposal to let the Boys & Girls Club program it prompted protests from community members, who ultimately prevailed. The center includes facilities for floor hockey and indoor basketball and offers dance classes for all ages, summer day camp, and preschool programs.
