About Washington

Park

Washington Park, located between Downtown Ithaca and the South Hill slopes, is a residential and park-adjacent Ithaca neighborhood with a compact street grid and a leafy, walkable feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along South Aurora Street near the Washington Park green, where porch-front houses meet steady foot traffic and a low-key, local rhythm. Architectural cues lean toward late-19th- and early-20th-century homes with gables, bay windows, and deep stoops. The park itself sets the pace with courts, open lawn, and shaded edges. Community pillars nearby include the State Theatre of Ithaca, the Ithaca Farmers Market, and the Kitchen Theatre Company. Short blocks connect quickly to Commons-era storefronts and the gorge-cut landscape at Cascadilla Creek.
