Stretching from Kathy Osterman Bearch on the north to Ohio Street Beach on the south, Lincoln Park is Chicago’s largest and arguably most active green space. Having begun as a 60-acre portion of a public cemetery, the park grew in many phases to its present size of more than 1,200 acres. A diverse group of talented landscape designers architects, engineers, and artists guided the park’s development. Together, their contributions can be seen as a complex lakefront tapestry.
Today, Lincoln Park continues to serve vast numbers of Chicagoans and visitors, providing activities such as boating, fishing, soccer, bicycling, and swimming. With facilities ranging from dog parks and artificial turf fields to beach houses and museums, Lincoln Park offers a richly textured weave of nature, culture, and recreation on the Chicago lakefront.
