Pullman, Planned industrial community area on South Side of Chicago, US.
The neighborhood extends from 103rd Street to 115th Street, featuring Victorian brick houses arranged along streets with green spaces and public facilities.
George Pullman established this district in 1880 as a residential complex for workers of his railroad car manufacturing company, creating an organized industrial settlement.
The Historic Pullman Foundation maintains a museum that documents the legacy of railroad porters and the development of African American labor movements.
Two Metra Electric Line stations serve the district, with express trains stopping at Kensington/115th Street station for convenient downtown Chicago access.
The neighborhood received recognition at the 1896 Prague International Exposition as an example of advanced urban planning with integrated water and sewer systems.

Chicago is explored as a mosaic of neighborhoods, parks, and towers, each telling a part of its story. The city reveals itself through reflections on Lake Michigan, glass facades rising above the river, and museums among the richest in the United States. The journey takes you from a public garden resembling an art gallery to a platform attached to a tower, then to a shopping avenue with architecture competing with storefronts. Cultural centers, iconic stadiums, and ethnic neighborhoods add further dimensions to this urban landscape. Here is a selection of places that show Chicago as it is lived, amidst height, culture, and daily energy.
