Appropriately the road was at the time called the Green Bay Trail.Although this area is fairly close to what would eventually become Chicago in the south, it was still considered remote and the major facility that it offered for Chicago residents at the time was a small pox hospital and a cemetery. By the late 1830s, Chicago was incorporated and it extended to the southern limits of Lincoln Park. Even with Chicago neighboring it, property prices in the late 1800s to early 1900s were still muted.Only when the Green Bay Road was further developed, easing its use for northbound travelers, did the are in Lincoln Park start to become attractive to settlers.
