Big Marsh is the vision for Chicago’s Park No. 564, about 20 minutes southeast of the Chicago Loop, just east of Lake Calumet. It’s 278 acres of open space, just a few acres smaller than Chicago’s Grant Park. Big Marsh shares its past with Big Steel and the unique natural history of the Calumet region. Big Marsh creates a new legacy of outdoor recreation and open space stewardship. It’s called eco-recreation.
