Marquette Park, Public park in Chicago Southwest Side, United States.
The 200-acre Marquette Park contains a lagoon system, multiple sports fields, and natural areas with prairie, savanna, and wetland habitats for outdoor activities.
The park, established in 1915, bears the name of French Jesuit explorer Jacques Marquette, who mapped sections of the Mississippi River with Louis Jolliet in 1673.
The natural areas within Marquette Park include the Ashburn Prairie, a remnant mesic prairie transplant preserved in the center of the grounds.
Free parking spaces are available throughout the park grounds, and paved paths run along the lagoon system for walking and cycling activities.
The park features dedicated natural zones where visitors can observe native plant species and wildlife while following specific preservation regulations.
