History
Mulberry Point Park is among a small group of parks developed by Chicago's Special Park Commission in the "suburban" Norwood Park neighborhood after 1900. The tiny triangular property is bounded by a trio of streets, then known as Crescent, Ceylon, and Mulberry Avenues (now Nickerson, Nina, and Nicolet). After developing a plan for Mulberry Point Park in 1905, the commission planted trees, shrubs, and grass. The Park District has been leasing this park property from CDOT since 1959. The shady park remains essentially unchanged from its earliest design.
