Historical Note
The Hyde Park Historical Society was founded in 1977 to record and preserve the history ofHyde Park-Kenwood. It seeks to educate and foster appreciation of the neighborhood's heritage.
Hyde Park was founded by Paul Cornell (1822-1904), a lawyer and real estate speculator (andcousin of Ezra Cornell, founder of Cornell University). Cornell was an urban planner whoenvisioned a resort community of parks and hotels. In the 1850s he chose a township on LakeMichigan and the southern branch of the Illinois Central Railroad, incorporated in 1861 as theHyde Park Township. Originally extending from 39th to 63rd Streets, Hyde Park’s boundarieswere later redrawn to stretch south to 138th St. and west to State St. Hyde Park became asuccessful destination spot with its own rail depot on 53rd St. and a popular hotel, the HydePark House (now Hampton House condominium at 53rd St. and Lake Michigan). The HydePark Herald, Chicago’s oldest community newspaper, was established in 1882. The townshipwas annexed by the city in 1889.
Hyde Park hosted the World’s Columbian Exposition in 1893. In 1890 John D. Rockefellerfounded the University of Chicago, which by the 1920s housed a business school, the OrientalInstitute, and the Chicago Theological Seminary.
Hyde Park during this period was an affluent neighborhood governed by racially restrictivecovenants which prevented African-Americans from buying or occupying property. Theneighborhood’s demography began to change during the Depression when its hotels ceased toattract wealthy clientele. An artists’ colony was established on 57th St. The annual 57th StreetArt Fair, started in 1948, continues as Chicago’s oldest juried art fair. With racial covenantslifted by the Supreme Court in 1940, Hyde Park’s now-cheap properties became home to largenumbers of African-Americans arriving from the southern states.
Although Hyde Park by the 1950s was suffering from the same economic decline as the rest ofChicago’s South Side, it had powerful community advocates. These included Leon Despres,the lawyer and civil rights champion, elected alderman in 1955; Hyde Park Herald publisherBruce Sagan; the Hyde Park-Kenwood Community Conference, a residents’ organization
6
who formed 20 block clubs in 1950; and the Hyde Park Cooperative Society, which openedChicago’s largest grocery store in 1959. The University of Chicago’s urban renewal projects ofthe 1950s and 1960s razed and replaced entire city blocks. Though this “Fight Against Blight”aimed at creating a diverse and prosperous neighborhood, the displacement of African-Americansand removal of entertainment districts made the project controversial. The University’s re-imagination of Hyde Park and its continuous expansion are still debated.
Today Hyde Park-Kenwood is generally considered to be the area bounded by 47th and 60thStreets, and by Lake Michigan and Cottage Grove Avenue. Its heritage is preserved by the HydePark Historical Society, which began as the “Hyde Park-Kenwood Historical League” during1975 and 1976. Through the collaborative efforts of Clyde Watkins, Tom Jensen, Leon Despres,Jean Block, Victoria Ranney, Thelma Dahlberg, Muriel Beadle, and others, the new organizationacquired 5529 S. Lake Park Avenue. This building was originally a waiting room for cable cars.Hyde Park Historical Society was incorporated as an Illinois not-for-profit in 1978, and openedits renovated headquarters in 1980. The Society is active in the community and supportedby some 300 members. It stages exhibits, runs programs, publishes a newsletter, and collectshistorical materials for its archives.

This series focuses on the architectural history of Hyde Park-Kenwood and the urban renewalprojects pursued in the area. Oversized material has been transferred to Series XI. It is dividedinto six subseries:

These relate to the construction, financing, management, andresidential life of Modernist townhomes built during the urban renewal projects of the 1950sand 1960s. This material was compiled by the Hyde Park Historical Society as part of a 2006project to preserve and represent the architectural and social significance of this housing. Thesubseries begins with a summary of the Modern Townhomes Project, followed by materialrelated to the townhomes themselves, organized by development name. The final box containsCDs of interviews with residents. Material spans 1960-2006.
Subseries 2: Hyde Park Center Project, contains information, maps, and photographs for homesand buildings located in the area bounded by 53rd and 55th Streets, and Harper and WoodlawnAvenues.

This information was compiled tocreate a self-guided walking tour. Material is arranged by address and then by title. Material datesfrom 2007 unless otherwise noted.
Subseries 3: Hyde Park-Kenwood Community Conference contains administrative records, data,reports, and statements. Of note are playbooks for musicals staged at annual meetings.
