Hyde Park is packed with artistic and cultural destinations, among which are Frank Lloyd Wright’s Robie House, and the Museum of Science and Industry. 53rd Street, Hyde Park’s oldest shopping district, is lined with many restaurants and small businesses between Woodlawn to the west and Lake Park to the east. A small-business-oriented shopping center, Harper Court, extends north of 53rd Street along Harper Ave. It includes a wide variety of shops and a Farmers’ Market is held on Harper Court in the summers. The 57th Street Art Fair is also the oldest outdoor juried art fair in the Midwest.
