Lazarus Playlot Park

Chicago, Illinois

Welcome to Lazarus Playlot Park in Chicago's Roger's Park neighborhood. This park was first established in 1976, the year of the U.S. Bicentennial but it was not officially named until several years later. It is named after Emma Lazarus, an active member of the Chicago Jewish community and author of the poem "New Colossus." Though very small in size, this park has a great children's playground.
