South End neighborhood park. The park's own dedicated site (peterspark.org) confirms: "Pickleball lines are now on the tennis court." Address and general amenities (tennis, basketball, playground) confirmed via the City of Boston's official parks and playgrounds directory, which lists Peters Park's amenities as including "Tennis" (does not itself use the word pickleball). Court count not stated by either source, so left unconfirmed.
Our picks from the pickleball buying guides — chosen editorially, never by the venue and never by spend.
