Moore Park

Moore Park, also known as Joseph F. Moore Park
Moore Park is located off Pioneer Avenue in the Brookline section of Pittsburgh. It was developed in 1939.
Professor Moore, principal of the West Liberty School District, believed that playgrounds were the answer to the problem of juvenile delinquency. In 1911, at his urging, the city purchased land near Brookline School for playground use, but in a few years it was needed for school expansion. 
In 1930 the Joint Civic Committee of Brookline purchased 10 acres from the city. In 1939 Mayor Scully dedicated and christened Joseph F. Moore Park.
Moore Park has three outdoor tennis courts, two basketball courts, baseball and softball fields, and a outdoor swimming pool.
