Battista Playground

Entering Highland Park from the west brings you through a portion of the park that was the last parcel of land added to Highland Park. At the time of purchase in 1906 it was home to a small reservoir. The playground built on top of the filled-in reservoir was renamed the Vito P. Battista Playground in memory of a local educator and community leader.
