Marion Mahony Griffin Park

Chicago, Illinois

Welcome to Chicago's Marion Mahony Griffin Park located on the shores of Lake Michigan. This park was formerly known as Jarvis Beach Park but was renamed in 2015 in honor of world famous architect Marion Mahony Griffin who has been called "The Heroine of Chicago Architecture." Griffin grew up in the region and designed many buildings. Come out and cool down at the beach on a hot summer day.
