  • The vibrant history of Jackson Park

              Jackson Park has played a key role in one of the most interesting chapters in Chicago’s history, the World’s Columbian Exposition in 1893. Neighborhood residents are     excited about the forthcoming Obama presidential library and want to make sure the park continues to be a part of black cultural life. [WBEZ]
