Overview

Hyde Park

Welcome to one of Chicagos most celebrated communities! Home to a globally-renown university and a former president of the United States, Hyde Park is locally known as a hub for intellectuals and cultural enthusiasts. In part thanks to the constant influx of students, the neighborhood has historically been very socially and politically active. Aside from that unique characteristic, residents are also very lucky to live in such an iconic place, where buildings from the Worlds Columbian Exposition of 1893 still remain and a plethora of green spaces and historic districts abound. Stroll over the Garden of the Phoenix on a sunny day, support local business by popping in and buying a gift or two for loved ones, or take one of many CTA buses, trains, or the Metra Electric Line to explore other parts of the city. Hyde Park is also a bikers paradise, making it a pleasure to get to know both the community itself, or venture out beyond its boundaries.
