Hartigan Beach Park, Chicago, IL

Hartigan Beach Park occupies 6.6 acres along Lake Michigan in Chicago’s Edgewater neighborhood. The park includes a 1,000-foot concrete path that runs parallel to the shoreline, connecting to the Lakefront Trail for continuous north-south travel. A fenced playground with rubberized surfacing and climbing structures sits adjacent to restrooms and drinking fountains. Two lighted tennis courts and a basketball court occupy the park’s western edge, while open turf fields provide space for organized sports or informal recreation. A small dog-friendly area allows off-leash use during posted hours. Mature trees line the perimeter, creating partial shade over picnic tables and grills. The park is bounded by residential streets on three sides, with the closest CTA bus stop located one block west at Broadway and Thorndale. Seasonal lifeguard service operates at the swimming beach from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
