Description
East Side is bounded by Calumet River to the North and West, State Line Road to the East, and 126th street to the South. The neighborhood has a park on Lake Michigan with a beach and trails as well as, Calumet Park, and a forest, Eggers Grove Forest Preserve. The forest preserve has hiking/walking trails, picnic grounds and birdwatching. Public works are in process of expanding the parks and tourism despite the high crime rate. Much of East Side's homes are the Chicago-style bungalow, and the southeast portion of East Side contains many newer homes built after 1980. East Side is a neighborhood struggling between the failed economic boom of the mills and river industry collapsing and the future of tourism as it fights for gentrification.
