Cooper Park

Chicago, Illinois

Welcome to Chicago's Cooper Park located in the Roseland neighborhood. The city first purchased this land in 1966 with assistance from the Federal Government but it took nearly a decade to turn it into a city park. The park is named for Jack Cooper, the first African-American radio personality in United States history. Cooper was also a notable athlete and active member of his local community.
