Over the years, Swann Park became known for producing great baseball players. Sports Illustrated dubbed it the "garden spot" for professional baseball scouts who came to eye local talent. Here, Major League baseball players like Al Kaline, Reggie Jackson, and Ron Swoboda sharpened their skills.

This park was closed for years due to contaminated soils, but reopened in 2010 after a clean-up effort.

  • The water is extremely polluted here. The cove acts as a garbage catch-all.
