Grant Park
Lakefront Chicago plaza
Grant Park is a large public park in downtown Chicago, stretching along the Lake Michigan shoreline.
It hosts major events including the Lollapalooza music festival and has served as the site of historic gatherings—notably the 1968 Democratic National Convention protests and Barack Obama's 2008 election night victory speech.
Nicknamed "Chicago's front yard."
