Addams/Medill Park

Addams/Medill Park is a public park in Chicago named after Jane Addams and Medill Elementary School. It is located in Little Italy.

Recent history

In June 2017 it was announced that Exelon planned to build a $20 million, 100,000 sq-ft multi-purpose indoor facility in the park,[1] which is expected to open in late winter 2019. The park will also undergo $5 million of outdoor renovations.[2]

Every year, Addams/Medill Park hosts Ruido Fest and formerly hosted Spring Awakening until it moved to Hoffman Estates in 2019.[3][4]
