Anacostia Park, with over 1200 acres is one of Washington,
D.C.'s largest and most important recreation areas. Included in Anacostia Park is
Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens and Kenilworth Marsh. Hundreds of acres are
available for ballfields, picnicking, basketball, tennis, and the Anacostia Park
Pavilion has some 3300 square feet of space for roller skating and special events.
The Langston Golf Course offers an 18-hole course as well as a driving range, and
three concession-operated marinas, four boat clubs, and a public boat ramp provide
for access to the tidal Anacostia River for recreational boating. Above the railroad
bridge, and extending upriver to Kenilworth Park, much of the Anacostia Park river
bank is forested.
