There are many great factors that go along to making Berwyn such a great place to live. Another well known icon of Berwyn is Proksa Park. Proksa Park is the largest park in Berwyn and with it's baseball fields, tennis courts, well lit walking paths, picnic areas and club house for parties, Proksa Park is known thru-out the country as one of the nicest parks around. Located in the west side of town, Proksa Park, 3001 Wisconsin Ave., is the crown jewel of Berwyn’s park system. Lavishly landscaped and lovingly tended, it is something of an oasis in an urban landscape.
