As a sub-neighborhood tucked within the South Loop, Dearborn Park reflects over 30-years of collaboration and development among some of the city's most prominent businessmen andarchitects. Their goal: to create a vibrant residential community on thegrounds of abandoned factories and railroad tracks. Today, Dearborn Parkstands as a testament to their commitment and a gateway to the SouthLoop.
High-rises,a result of the initial development in the 1980's, stand along mid-rises and town homes, many new or rehabbed. Both young professionals and families are attracted to the area, not only for its homes but more sofor the outdoor spaces created around them. Carefully designed, beautifully-landscaped parks boast playgrounds, swimming pools, jogging trails, and tennis courts, providing residents open spaces to relax or exercise, enjoy a picnic or read a book, all with the city skyline in the background.
Because it's situated between Clark and State Street, with Polk Street bordering the northern end, Dearborn Park provides easy access to the eclectic restaurants and night life found in the South Loop. And, just a shortride away, the city's best museums and theater await.
