Hyde Park Historical Society
Hyde Park
To get a good overview of the neighborhood, contact the Hyde Park Historical Society, which sponsors lectures and tours. The society is housed in a building that once served as a waiting room for cable cars. The organization documents, preserves, and educates the public about the history of Hyde Park Township, which stretches from the north at E. 39th to E. 138th Streets on the south, and between Lake Michigan on the east and S. State Street on the west.
