Hyde Park

3 stories

A storied South Side community area anchored by the University of Chicago and the Museum of Science and Industry, bordered to the east by the lakefront and to the west by Jackson Park and the Midway Plaisance, and now being reshaped by the Obama Presidential Center and the 53rd Street commercial corridor. A dense, transit-oriented mix of Gothic stone campus buildings, Prairie-style homes, public housing, and small businesses where longtime residents, students, and hospital workers collide over affordability, zoning, and the future of the South Side.
