Description |
This is an aerial photograph of the Oak Lawn Park District's Community Pavilion located at 9401 S. Oak Park Avenue (right) and the adjoining baseball field complex located to the west of the Pavilion building. The Pavilion was built in 1987. Oak Park Avenue is seen in the right of the picture running from the bottom (south) to the top (north). The small building near the center of the picture is the David Johnston Community Center. The center is dedicated to Dr. David Johnston, an Oak Lawn resident who died on May 18, 1980, while serving as a volcanologist for the United States Geological Survey during the eruption of Mount St. Helens in Washington. Dr. Johnston grew up in Oak Lawn and played baseball on the fields that surround the Johnston Center. The shadow of the water tower located at 95th Street & New England Avenue can be seen in the bottom middle of the picture. |
