The South Park Commissioners began acquiring land in 1880 and continued to acquire more property for the park until 1943 when streets and alleys were vacated to expand the park. The park became part of the Chicago Park District’s portfolio in 1934 when the 22 park districts were consolidated.The Commission conceived the innovative parks to provide social services and breathing spaces to overcrowded immigrant neighborhoods. Landscape architects the Olmsted Brothers created plans for 14 new parks; however, four were delayed, including Calumet Park. Opened in 1905, the first ten included Russell, Mark White, Davis, Armour, and Cornell Squares, and Bessemer, Ogden, Sherman, Palmer, and Hamilton Parks. ## Itinerary - **Stop 1**: Chicago - **Location**: Chicago, United States - **Description**: We will be viewing the Chicago Shoreline from our vessel on the water.
