Background and History of Lincoln
Park
The area now known as Lincoln
Park in Chicago
was still primarily forest with
stretches
of grassland and occasional quicksand,
and
was virtually untouched by Europeans
as late
as the 1820s.
In 1824 the United States Army
built a small
post near today's Clybourn and
Armitage Avenues.
Indian settlements existed along
Green Bay
Trail, now called Clark Street
(named after
explorer George Rogers Clark),
at the current
intersection of Halsted Street
and Fullerton
Avenue.
In 1836, land from North to Fullerton
and
from the lake to Halsted was
inexpensive
because the area was considered
remote. Therefore,
a small pox hospital and the
city cemetery
were located in Lincoln Park
until the 1860s.
In 1837 Chicago was incorporated
as a city,
and North Avenue was established
as its northern
boundary. Settlements increased
along Green
Bay Trail when the government
offered land
claims and Green Bay Road was
widened
