Mary Bartelme Park – a 2.3-acre contemporary urban park in the West Loop of Chicago – provides valuable green space in a previously industrial turned residential up and coming neighborhood. Through a combination of bold programming, dynamic design, industrial references, and sustainable features, the park has become a landmark for Chicago, offering a vibrant icon for the city as well as an urban refuge for the neighborhood.
