Historical Note
The Hyde Park Historical Society was founded in 1977 to record and preserve the history of Hyde Park-Kenwood. It seeks to educate and foster appreciation of the neighborhood's heritage.
Hyde Park was founded by Paul Cornell (1822-1904), a lawyer and real estate speculator (and cousin of Ezra Cornell, founder of Cornell University). Cornell was an urban planner who envisioned a resort community of parks and hotels. In the 1850s he chose a township on Lake Michigan and the southern branch of the Illinois Central Railroad, incorporated in 1861 as the Hyde Park Township. Originally extending from 39th to 63rd Streets, Hyde Park's boundaries were later redrawn to stretch south to 138th St. and west to State St. Hyde Park became a successful destination spot with its own rail depot on 53rd St. and a popular hotel, the Hyde Park House (now Hampton House condominium at 53rd St. and Lake Michigan). The Hyde Park Herald, Chicago's oldest community newspaper, was established in 1882. The township was annexed by the city in 1889.
Hyde Park hosted the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893. In 1890 John D. Rockefeller founded the University of Chicago, which by the 1920s housed a business school, the Oriental Institute, and the Chicago Theological Seminary.
Hyde Park during this period was an affluent neighborhood governed by racially restrictive covenants which prevented African-Americans from buying or occupying property. The neighborhood's demography began to change during the Depression when its hotels ceased to attract wealthy clientele. An artists' colony was established on 57th St. The annual 57th Street Art Fair, started in 1948, continues as Chicago's oldest juried art fair. With racial covenants lifted by the Supreme Court in 1940, Hyde Park's now-cheap properties became home to large numbers of African-Americans arriving from the southern states.
Although Hyde Park by the 1950s was suffering from the same economic decline as the rest of Chicago's South Side, it had powerful community advocates. These included Leon Despres, the lawyer and civil rights champion, elected alderman in 1955; Hyde Park Herald publisher Bruce Sagan; the Hyde Park-Kenwood Community Conference, a residents' organization who formed 20 block clubs in 1950; and the Hyde Park Cooperative Society, which opened Chicago's largest grocery store in 1959. The University of Chicago's urban renewal projects of the 1950s and 1960s razed and replaced entire city blocks. Though this “Fight Against Blight” aimed at creating a diverse and prosperous neighborhood, the displacement of African-Americans and removal of entertainment districts made the project controversial. The University's re-imagination of Hyde Park and its continuous expansion are still debated.
Today Hyde Park-Kenwood is generally considered to be the area bounded by 47th and 60th Streets, and by Lake Michigan and Cottage Grove Avenue. Its heritage is preserved by the Hyde Park Historical Society, which began as the “Hyde Park-Kenwood Historical League” during 1975 and 1976. Through the collaborative efforts of Clyde Watkins, Tom Jensen, Leon Despres, Jean Block, Victoria Ranney, Thelma Dahlberg, Muriel Beadle, and others, the new organization acquired 5529 S. Lake Park Avenue. This building was originally a waiting room for cable cars. Hyde Park Historical Society was incorporated as an Illinois not-for-profit in 1978, and opened its renovated headquarters in 1980. The Society is active in the community and supported by some 300 members. It stages exhibits, runs programs, publishes a newsletter, and collects historical materials for its archives.

This series contains the histories, memorabilia, and writings of influential and ordinary people who lived and live in Hyde Park and the greater South Side. Oversized material has been transferred to Series XI. It is divided into six subseries:
Subseries 1: Paul Cornell, contains biographical information, family correspondence and papers, financial records, and photographs. Cornell was a lawyer and real estate developer who founded the township of Hyde Park in the 1850s. Material spans 1854-2007, but the bulk of this subseries is comprised of material remembering Cornell and his legacy.
Subersies 2: Paul Hazard, contains financial records related to his real estate dealings in Hyde Park and the South Side between1897-1928. It includes business and some personal correspondence.
Subseries 3: Hal Higdon, contains correspondence and book manuscripts. The bulk of these relate to Higdon's book The Union vs. Dr. Mudd. Material dates from the 1960s.
Subseries 4: Lorado Taft, contains writings and photographs. Writings consist of reminiscences about Taft at his Eagle's Nest artist colony in Oregon, Illinois. Photographs are of his sculptures and the work of other artists. Photocopied photographs in this subseries are of poor quality. Material dates from 1892 to 1988, though many of the photographs are undated.
Subseries 5: Oral Histories, contains cassette tape recordings and transcripts of interviews with long-time Hyde Park residents. These interviews are of particular note. They were conducted between 1980-1986 and 1994-1995 for the "Hyde Park: A Place of Refuge," project, which explored how different ethnic groups and nationalities built their own community within Hyde Park. This subseries also contains notes and correspondence related to the interviews.
Subseries 6: General, contains the clippings, correspondence, memorabilia, photographs, and writings of various individuals with some link to Hyde Park or the Historical Society.Of note is a collection of Christmas cards designed by Maude Hutchins, wife of University of Chicago President Robert Maynard Hutchins.

This series focuses on the architectural history of Hyde Park-Kenwood and the urban renewal projects pursued in the area. Oversized material has been transferred to Series XI. It is divided into six subseries:
Subseries 1: Hyde Park Modern Townhomes Project, contains administrative and financial records, architectural drawings, brochures, legal documents, membership information, oral histories, and photographs. These relate to the construction, financing, management, and residential life of Modernist townhomes built during the urban renewal projects of the 1950s and 1960s. This material was compiled by the Hyde Park Historical Society as part of a 2006 project to preserve and represent the architectural and social significance of this housing. The subseries begins with a summary of the Modern Townhomes Project, followed by material related to the townhomes themselves, organized by development name. The final box contains CDs of interviews with residents. Material spans 1960-2006.
Subseries 2: Hyde Park Center Project, contains information, maps, and photographs for homes and buildings located in the area bounded by 53rd and 55th Streets, and Harper and Woodlawn Avenues. The Historical Society termed this oldest section of Hyde Park "the most modest, the most urban, the most 'renewed' - and the least appreciated." This information was compiled to create a self-guided walking tour. Material is arranged by address and then by title. Material dates from 2007 unless otherwise noted.
Subseries 3: Hyde Park-Kenwood Community Conference contains administrative records, data, reports, and statements. Of note are playbooks for musicals staged at annual meetings. Material spans 1952-1965 and is organized by title. For proposals prepared by Conference committees, see Series II, Subseries 3.
Subseries 4: The Uses of Gothic, contains undated index cards referencing University of Chicago and Hyde Park buildings. Material is undated. It is organized by university building and by street.
Subseries 5: Postcards, contains postcards of Chicago events and landmarks from the 1930s, some with messages. It is organized by site.
Subseries 6: General, contains clippings, correspondence, floor plans, pamphlets, real estate brochures, reports, and photographs related to the history, preservation, and renewal of Hyde Park-Kenwood. Material spans 1876-2003 and is arranged by topic and title.

This series contains photographs, slides, records, cassette and VHS tapes, and microfilm. These document urban planning and recreation in Hyde Park-Kenwood. It is organized into three subseries:
Subseries 1: Photographs and Slides, documents Hyde Park-Kenwood architecture, events, and residents from 1859 through 2000. It includes drawings. Of note are those which chart urban renewal projects beginning in the 1950s; folders dated "before 1950s" contain photographs of buildings later demolished. Many photographs of individuals later appeared in the Hyde Park Herald; some of them recorded oral histories now found in Series III, Subseries 5. Folders contain photographs unless otherwise noted. This subseries is organized by address, and then alphabetically by subject, with photographer noted wherever known. Note that Lake Park Avenue was originally known as Lake Avenue.
Subseries 2: Audio, contains records and cassette tapes. These include music recorded by Hyde Park musicians and the annual meetings of the Hyde Park Historical Society. Material spans 1981-1996.
Subseries 3: Film and Microfilm, contains VHS recordings of the 57th St. Art Fair and its artists. It includes microfilmed architectural plans for 5734 S. Kimbark Avenue. Material spans 1982-1996.
