In 1853, Paul Cornell, a real estate speculator and cousin of Cornell University founder, Ezra Cornell, purchased 300 acres of land between 51st and 55th streets along the shore

of Lake Michigan, with the idea of attracting other Chicago businessmen and their families to the area.

Conveniently located near the Illinois Central Railroad, which had been constructed two years earlier, Cornell successfully negotiated land in exchange for a railroad station at 53rd Street. Hyde Park soon became a suburban retreat for affluent Chicagoans who wanted to escape the noise and congestion from the rapidly growing city.

In 1861, Hyde Park was incorporated as an independent township (Hyde Park Township). Its boundaries were Pershing Road (39th Street) on the north, 138th Street on the south, State Street on the west, and Lake Michigan and the Indiana state line on the east. The territory of the township covered most of what is now the south side of Chicago. Hyde Park Township remained independent until it was annexed to the city in 1889. After annexation, the definition of Hyde Park as a Chicago neighborhood was restricted to the historic core of the former township, centered on Cornell’s initial development between 51st and 55th streets near the lakefront.

In 1893, Hyde Park hosted the World’s Columbian Exposition (marking the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus’ arrival in the New World).

The World’s Columbian Exposition brought fame to the neighborhood, which gave rise to an influx of new residents and encouraged new development that gradually began transforming Hyde Park into a more urban area. Most of the structures built for the fair were temporary. The only major structure that is still standing today is Charles Atwood’s Palace of Fine Arts, now known as the Museum of Science and Industry.

Hyde Park is one of Chicago’s most vibrant and diverse neighborhoods. Its population is 46.8% Caucasian, 29.9% African American, 12.1% Asian American, 7.0% Hispanic, and 4.2% of other races. The main retail artery (53rd Street) is currently undergoing dramatic revitalization, and growing demand for housing in the neighborhood has resulted in the construction of three new high-rise developments in the past three years.

The election of Hyde Park resident Barack Obama to the presidency has added additional luster to a community that already boasts 90 Nobel laureates and one of the most famous lawyers in U.S. history, Clarence Darrow. Add to this writers like Sandra Cisneros, Ernest Hemingway, Gwendolyn Brooks and Scott Turow and artists like Kerry James Marshall, Michelle Grabner, Dan Peterman, Theaster Gates and Dawoud Bey.

Finally, Hyde Park has one of the best-looking skyline views in the United States.
