Celebrating in North Lawndale
Where North Lawndale hosts use concessions
North Lawndale is a West Side neighborhood with a rich story, from its time as a center of Chicago's Jewish community to its role in Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s 1966 Chicago campaign and its decades as a hub of Black Chicago. Greystones and coach houses along Douglas Boulevard and Independence Boulevard mark a once-grand stretch of the city, and many of these buildings still host family gatherings.
Church halls
Congregations here host anniversary dinners, repasts and graduation brunches for large groups.
Concessions here: Halls may limit open food stations or require them in the kitchen area; ask before you plan a cotton candy station.
Douglas Park
A big space for reunions and picnics; the Chicago Park District manages permits.
Concessions here: Parks without power need a generator for concession machines, and some do not allow food stands without approval.
Boulevard greystones and courtyards
Historic homes host weddings, showers and family milestones.
Concessions here: Concession machines need a level table and an outlet; popcorn and cotton candy machines each use a standard circuit, so avoid sharing it with a bounce house blower.
Vacant-lot block parties
Neighborhood events on cleared lots need soft-ground planning and street-closure approval from the city.
Concessions here: Concession machines need a level table and an outlet; popcorn and cotton candy machines each use a standard circuit, so avoid sharing it with a bounce house blower.
Delivery notes for North Lawndale
- Block party closures need city approval. Check with the city first and share the closure times with us.
