DuSable Park is a roughly 3.5-acre public park on a long-vacant peninsula east of DuSable Lake Shore Drive in Streeterville, next to the 400 Lake Shore development, at 451 N DuSable Lake Shore Drive, under way since October 2026 and set to finish in 2028.
Designed by Ross Barney Architects and Brook Architecture for the Chicago Park District, it honors Jean Baptiste Point DuSable, Chicago's first permanent non-Indigenous settler, and his Potawatomi wife, Kitihawa. Plans call for an entry plaza, a pavilion, a promenade, a waterfront boardwalk, a lawn, an overlook hill, woodland and wet prairie, with connections to the Navy Pier flyover and an extended Riverwalk.
