Morgan Park

A southwest side haven of tranquility, Morgan Park's quiet cul-de-sacs and roundabouts are edged with leafy trees, Prairie-style bungalows and beautiful parks, offering families a suburban-esque quality to their big city lifestyle. The community planning commission has seen to it that Morgan Park maintains its historic homes, which include a mix of architectural styles beside the classic, brick Chicago bungalow. Oversized lots surrounded by green grass and verdant vegetation are prime properties in Morgan Park. They are also among the most expensive real estate in the area. Smaller residences, courtyard condominiums and townhomes supply less pricey housing that still boast larger-than-average yards and nearby community playlots. Morgan Parkers enjoy privacy at home, but like to get together at the 410-seat neighborhood arts center for a local play production, film screening or music concert.

Morgan Park consists of: Beverly Woods, Kennedy Park, and West Morgan Park.
