serve as meeting grounds for people of different backgrounds and economic means
that could be played out in a rich diversity of ways he likely could not have predicted. Urban

Some Background
In the early 1850's, a park movement emerged in Chicago, when visionary citizens began to rally for the creation of
the nation's first comprehensive park and boulevard system. A physician, Dr.
John Rauch led a successful protest to set aside a 60-acre section of a public
cemetery as parkland, marking the beginnings of Lincoln

The Parks of Lake View:Kerfoot Park
It began with S.H. Kerfoot
Chicago History Museum dates photo late 1860's
This ten acre park space area was located along Irving
Park Road probably from Halsted Street toward existing lakefront by 1860. It was not an actually park but according to the property owner S.H. Kerfoot “first
specimen of artistic landscape gardening in this section of the country“. This
section of the country was rural and beyond the borders of the City of Chicago within the Township of Lake View. Mr. Kerfoot huge park-like space included
planted evergreens, rustic ambers, and man-made ponds to be crossed by bridges according
to a publication called ‘Constructing Chicago’ by Daniel Bluestone. His
property was located steps away from one of the
original resort/hotels in the township that was to be named Lake View Hotel by
1857 the same year the township was granted a charter by the State of
Illinois within County of Cook.
S.H. Kerfoot was not only a known horticulturist but a
one of the saviors of property re-recognition after the Great Chicago Fire of
1871 (most of the property records were destroyed during the fire). When 17
year old Kerfoot moved to Chicago he was hired by a real estate company that
was owned by James Rees, the same person who co-owned Lake View Hotel along
with Elisha Huntley (his original home).

Mr. Rees, Elisha Huntley, and S.H. Kerfoot would use the
hotel and the park/garden space to attract visitors from Chicago to vacation and
buy property around there properties, an area that was known by the 1870's for it’s county-like breezes
from the lake. In fact, the hotel was located off a bluff over-looking the lake
for decades until late 1880’s when a roadway was constructed along the
lake shore to be called Sheridan Road, but that is long story and for another blog post.
Sharpshooter ParkWhen a park was for meant for prize shooting
This hunting area officially called Schuetzen Park and was located along the North Chicago River and Clybourn Avenue general area. The area was established in 1853 and at the time located in both in the old township of Ridgeville
(Lake View & Evanston township combined 1850-1854) and the Township of Jefferson. Western Avenue was the borderline between the two townships from 1854-1887, hence part of the history of Lake View to be share. The park space location west of Western Avenue was to be the future sight of Riverview Amusement Park originally named Riverview Sharpshooter Park.

Green Spaces of All Kinds:
How conventional park spaces began
In the early 1850's, a park movement emerged in Chicago, when visionary citizens began to rally for the creation of the nation's first comprehensive park and boulevard system. A physician, Dr. John Rauch led a successful protest to set aside a 60-acre section of a north-side public cemetery (Chicago Cemetery) as parkland that marked the beginnings of Lincoln Park, the park.
The first official urban public park in the City of Chicago was located at Hull House on South Halsted Street in 1897.

Between the years 1900-20 of Lincoln Park greatly expanded with creation of Diversey Harbor, Belmont Yacht Harbor in 1913 and the start of landfill for Montrose. Ernest Burgess created a concept that each neighborhood of Chicago should have their own park land available for residents in 1929.
1908 Residents of the District of Lake View
Petition for Parkland
Working class citizens demanded open space during this time period that was closer to their homes and workplaces (manufacturing plants along the North Chicago River and Fullerton Avenue) other than along the lakefront.
That same year in 1908 Wrightwood Park, located in the new District of Lake View, was created from an old clay pit that was currently used as a ice pond as the Sanborn Maps show below. Clay Pits were used for the manufacturing of bricks for streets and dwellings. A number of pits were located in this area in the 19th century.
Also in 1910 when Lake View was referred to as a district within Chicago, there was a park listing by the Daily News Almanac under 'small parks' there was a green space called Gross Park on Otto Street aka Gross Park on Henderson designed by Samuel Eberly Gross who had an ornate park space in mind for working class citizens of his subdivision. This concept would be repeated almost a century later by Mayor Richard Daley with the construction of green-space medium strips throughout the city.
As of 2012, CPD is the steward of over 7,700 acres of open space, totaling more than 570 parks, 31 beaches, 50 nature areas, and 2 world-class conservatories and host of thousands of special events, cultural, nature, sports and recreational programs. The Chicago Park District still remains the nation's leading provider of green space and recreation.

1910 The Northwestern Elevated had a garden contest along their tracks from Belmont Station through the Ravenswood Line (Brown) hence creating a concept of green space on a very local level other than grand boulevards and established parks. One can say garden walks may have stem of this idea. Also in 1910 when Lake View was referred to as a district within Chicago, there was a park listing by the Daily News Almanac under 'small parks' there was a green space called Gross Park on Otto Street aka Gross Park on Henderson designed by Samuel Eberly Gross who had an ornate park space in mind for working class citizens of his subdivision.

The Chicago Park District received substantial funds through President Roosevelt's (WPA) Works Progress Administration for park improvements and programs. In the late 1940s, a Ten Year Plan led to dozens of new parks including a progressive school-park concept. In 1959, the system expanded again, when the City of Chicago transferred more than 250 parks, playlots, sanatoriums, and beaches to the Chicago Park District. As of 2012, CPD is the steward of over 7,700 acres of open space, totaling more than 570 parks, 31 beaches, 50 nature areas, and 2 world-class conservatories and host of thousands of special events, cultural, nature, sports and recreational programs. The Chicago Park District still remains the nation's leading provider of green space and recreation.

comprehensive effort for creating
and preserving open spaces in an urban landscape.

Although the first sandlot opened in Boston in 1886, the playground movement didn't begin to develop until the mid-1890's, when playgrounds were opened in nine major cities including Chicago. After that owners of 'settlement houses' or local civic groups opened 'open vacant spaces' called playlots, often modest dirt lots, on land donated or lent by philanthropists. A wide coalition of child-saving reformers including social settlement house workers, progressive educators, and child psychologists urged municipal governments to construct playgrounds where the city's youth could play under supervised and controlled conditions.

From 1869-1889 Lincoln Park was administered by a board
of commissioners from both the City of Chicago and the Township of Lake View.
Before the annexation of 1889, Lake View Township's southern border was
Fullerton Avenue except a small and narrow portion of the lakefront that the
State of Illinois granted to the City of Chicago in 1869
(Fullerton to Diversey) but still administered by both
city and township administrations.
Currently, there is a park within a park at Lincoln Park parallel to Roscoe Street on the
other east side of LSD called
Arthur Telscer Memorial Playground. Read more about the connection between Lake View and this park within my post called 'Lincoln Park: The Lake View Connection.'

In the mid-1960's, the South Lake View Neighbors
Association began to push for a playground in their crowded community. In 1966,
the Chicago Park District agreed to create a new park at the corner of North
Lakewood Avenue and West Wolfram Street. Using both city Park Improvement Bond
funds and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development grant funds, the
park district purchased the property two years later. Before long, the new park
was equipped with basketball and volleyball courts, playground apparatus, a
sand box, and a spray pool. In 1969, the park district recognized residents'
efforts by naming the site South Lake View Park. Subsequent improvements include
a 1993 playground rehabilitation.
As of 2018 the patrons of the park were looking for private funds to renovated this less than an acre space.

Lois Klein Park was created by the Chicago Park District
in 2010 after several years of planning and land acquisition. Designed by the
Hitchcock Design Group, the park has a whimsical playground. In 2011, the
Chicago Park District’s Board of Commissioners named the park in honor of Lois
Klein, a neighborhood activist who inspired members of the Lake View community
in the 1980's and 1990's. Born and raised in Chicago Lois Klein (1931-1997) lived
for over 30 years just two blocks from the site that now bears her name. During
her life, she made many positive contributions to her neighborhood by
participating in community meetings and volunteering for the local alderman’s
office.
However, the bulk of her energy was focused on helping children. For
many years she volunteered at two local schools, John J. Audubon Elementary
School and St. Andrew School. Ms. Klein’s concern about neighborhood children
prompted her to advocate for safety improvements to address the dangerous
intersection at Lincoln Avenue Addison Street, and Ravenswood Avenue. She rallied the
community to petition for improvements at the intersection. Ironically, in
1997, Lois Klein was struck by a car at that very intersection. Due to Ms.
Klein’s tragic death, the intersection was soon modernized and made safer for
pedestrians.
Gill Park honors Lake View resident Joseph L. Gill (1886--1972), a Chicago Park District Commissioner, and local Democratic party leader. Gill served as 46th Ward Democratic Committeeman for more than 60 years. He was chairman of the Democratic County Central Committee from 1950 to 1953, and is said to have engineered Richard J. Daley's first nomination for mayor in 1955. Gill served the public in various capacities, including as controller of the Forest Preserve District beginning in 1919, as Illinois state representative from 1926 to 1930, and as clerk of the Municipal Court for most of the subsequent three decades. In 1960, Mayor Daley appointed Gill to the Chicago Park District Board of Commissioners. Gill was serving as park district vice president at the time of his death in 1972. Two years before, the park district had decided to establish a recreational facility on West Sheridan Road in the densely-populated Lake View neighborhood. By 1972, the site had been acquired with the help of funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and plans had been developed for a multi-story field-house with a swimming pool, a gymnasium, and an assembly hall. Neighbors refer to the impressive structure as the "high-rise field-house." The park district installed a new soft surface playground at Gill Park in 1991. The park once surrounded one of last SRO's in Lake View called the Chateau Hotel.

Sheil Community Center honors the memory of Archbishop
Bernard J. Sheil (1886-1969), pastor at Lake View's St. Andrew's Catholic
Church for more than three decades. A supporter of ecumenical efforts and of
the rights of racial minorities and laborers, Archbishop Sheil was often
referred to as "the friend of the little guy." His interest in young
people led him to found the Catholic Youth Organization in 1930. Sheil
Community Center is located in the heavily-populated Lake View neighborhood, on
land once occupied by the Hanson Laundry Company. The Chicago Park District
purchased the property in 1973, demolishing the laundry plant. In 1975 the park district broke ground for a field-house with a
gymnasium, a craft-shop, & club rooms.
Margaret Donahue Parkonce referred to as School Street Park
The Chicago Park District has worked closely with the
School Street Advisory Council, Alderman Thomas M. Tunney of the 44th ward and the Chicago Cubs
on the development of a new park in the Lake View community. The $1.2 million
park includes a major playground installation. The advisory council formally
requested that the new park be named in honor of Margaret Donahue (1892 –
1978), one of the first women executives in major league baseball. The Chicago
Park District Board of Commissioners complied with the request, and the park
was officially named in 2014. Born on a farm in Huntley, Illinois, she moved to
Chicago at the age of 16 to find a job as a secretary. In 1919, with only one
year of high school a year of secretarial training, and a brief position at a
laundry, Donahue was hired as a stenographer by William Veeck, President of the
Chicago Cubs (and father of longtime Cubs owner Bill Veeck).

At the time, the
only other woman who worked for the Cubs was the team’s bookkeeper. That woman
soon left, and Donahue took over, performing as both secretary and bookkeeper.
She quickly took over many responsibilities including ticket sales, stock
transfers, providing press passes, and handling gate receipts for other Wrigley
Field events such as Chicago Bears professional football games. Before long,
she was traveling with the Cubs. In 1926, Veeck promoted Donahue to corporate
secretary, an unprecedented role for a woman in the major leagues at that time.
She brought many innovations to professional baseball such as season tickets,
providing off-site ticket locations, and selling reduced priced tickets for
children. When Donahue was promoted to vice president of the Chicago Cubs in
1950, she was the first woman in this role in the major league to have come up
through the ranks. Donahue retired in 1958, prompting Phillip K. Wrigley to
issue a proclamation describing her as a “nationally acknowledged authority on
the intricacies of baseball rules and regulations.” When Donahue died in 1978,
she was eulogized by Jack Brickhouse / WGN.

"back in the late 80's when the park was first converted from a run down empty space to the new and improved version, there was a party and dedication to celebrate... there was an effort made by the Wendt family to have the park named in his honor and they did some fund raising ( as I remember ) to cover expenses of the conversion that were not covered in the Park District budget ( like the front gate and fence, among other items )... his wife and daughters that survived him spoke at the dedication." - testimonial from 'GEO' 2014

The Green-Ways Along Berteua Avenue
Neighborhood 'greenways' are routes that are quiet streets with low traffic volumes that are made even more bike-friendly by using methods to minimize the number of cars, reduce their speed and make bicyclists and pedestrians more visible. Different cities have different names for this concept – bike boulevards, community corridors, and the like. No matter what you call it, the goal is to make the street safer for everyone.
The first Green-Way on the north-side will be created on Berteua Avenue for the community of West Graceland/East Ravenswood in LakeView.
2012 - Lakeview gets creative with green space along with the rest of the city. Call them communal green spaces or people spots or pop-ups, these green spaces will essentially extend the sidewalk cafe concept into the adjacent street.

This Greenway as of the summer of 2018 is under discussion with the Hawthorne Neighbors Association who is responsible for this area of Lake View. Below are some of the images of the project via the 44th ward office - Tom Tunney

Garden Walks has had one continuous success in one community in Lake View called West Graceland located in an area of spatial houses and suburban-like property. The West Graceland residents began their 'walk' in 1972. According to the organizers having three gardens per block is the bare minimum.The entire neighborhood of Lake View has had a spotty reputation since its inception in 1995. According to the article posted by Garpers Block contributor, Patrick Boylan, “the reason not to have more neighborhood venues is the time of year. It's mid-summer, the gardens should be well watered from a continuing series of storms in late June and they should be at a glorious height of color. The issue in late June & also in mid-July is one of choice. There are far too many well established garden walks in other parts of the city and are all crowded in a few weeks and some of the largest take place at the same time each year.
