From what I can see, these are likely Shaggy Inkcaps, which typically grow on lawns in urban areas. They should have dark-brown ridges underneath, darkening to black as they mature, and will turn slimy/black as they rot. Of course it goes without saying that no one should take a mushroom identification via a photo as definitive!
Shaggy Inkcaps are considered semi-edible, with a pleasant taste a bit like white asparagus, but will make you violently ill if you have any alcohol in your system, so most people avoid them.
