Promontory Point

Promontory Point is a naturalistic lakefront landscape designed by Alfred Caldwell, forming part of Burnham Park. The Chicago Park District lists its address at 5491 South Jean-Baptiste Pointe DuSable Lake Shore Drive.

The Point supplies an open-water setting beside the Hyde Park area, distinct from the university campus and museum streets farther inland. Burnham Park is part of the larger south lakefront landscape. The Park District maintains current information about the site and notices affecting lakefront access.
