Cultural institutions and attractions
Grand Boulevard and Bronzeville are synonymous with Black Chicago history. The Forum Bronzeville, erected in 1897, is one of the most iconic spots in the community. The venue is currently undergoing restoration, but it once hosted political speeches and musicians from Nat King Cole to the Jackson 5. “Some modern buildings have gone up around it as part of the redevelopment,” says Paulette Hollingsworth, a real estate broker with Baird & Warner who has over 15 years of experience. “It would be great if more nightlife developed in that area because that’s the history.”
Other institutions include Ebenezer Missionary Baptist Church. The church is known as the birthplace of gospel music, still holds weekly services and once welcomed Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. through its doors. The Harold Washington Cultural Center, dedicated to the city’s first Black mayor, hosts concerts, theatrical performances and lectures.
