  • Review this attraction
  • A bronze memorial at Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive and 35th Street honors the journey many African-Americans made to this neighborhood as they fled the oppression of the South in the early 20th century. Nearby, sidewalk plaques celebrate local luminaries. Chicago’s answer to Harlem offers jazz and blues in its clubs, graceful mansions aplenty, and lots of fine soul food.
