Southwyck is home of the Toledo Masonic Auditorium. This facility is often host to many famous guest speakers, theater productions, and concerts. The Masonic Auditorium is located south of Heatherdowns Boulevard, between Cass Road and Key Street.

South on Key Street, just outside Toledo’s city limits, is Ned Skeldon Stadium, home to the Toledo Mudhens Minor League Baseball team. The Lucas County Recreation Center, Ohio Baseball Hall of Fame, and Lucas County Fairgrounds are also near the stadium.

As in many suburbs, large yards are preferable to city parks, yet Southwyck has a park present in the neighborhood, the Cass-Ryan-Eastgate Park. This park includes area for picnicking, trails for walking, and tennis courts. Swan Creek Preserve Metro park, in the northernmost part of Southwyck, offers trails winding through a natural setting overlooking Swan Creek.

Southwyck contains one of Toledo’s largest commercial districts. The Southwyck Mall is just one of the many commercial areas lining Reynolds Road from the Ohio Turnpike north to Swan Creek. The Crossgates Shopping Center on Heatherdowns Boulevard and Eastgate Road also offers goods and services closer to the residential area.

Reynolds Road, the commercial strip, runs north to more commercial areas. Heatherdowns Boulevard, Eastgate Road, Glendale Avenue, and Cass Road serve as major thoroughfares through the residential areas.
