Ellis Court
Favorites
Ellis Court embodies the eclectic architectural tradition for which Hyde Park is renowned. Flemish bond masonry courses interlaced with geometric Prairie Style brick detail are highlighted by flowery Art Nouveau terra cotta ornament of the early 20th century. The private, landscaped courtyard opens to views of the expansive neighboring green space, creating a peaceful spot for respite as well as a practical means of providing the interiors with daylight and fresh air. Steps away are the University of Chicago and public transportation, as well as the 53rd Street Corridor's local variety of restaurants and shops.

Bordering Washington Park to the East, Hyde Park is a popular and culturally diverse South Side community. Lush, spacious parks and the University of Chicago campus dominate the neighborhood. Although there is a wide selection of luxury communities, there are many apartments and rental houses that are surprisingly affordable, attracting students, faculty, staff, and any renters looking for a good deal.
This small park-like neighborhood is rich with history. Hyde Park is home to one of Chicago’s most famous landmarks: The Museum of Science and Industry, the largest science museum in the Western Hemisphere. Hyde Park was also home to the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, several Nobel Prize winners, and former President Barack Obama. The neighborhood is surrounded by beautiful green spaces, lush foliage, and lakefront parks with small beaches. Midway Plaisance Park is a long stretch of parkland with sports facilities and an outdoor skating rink.
