Evergreen Park
Evergreen Park is a city of about 25,000 residents and surrounded by the city of Chicago on three sides. The village has a total area of about 3.1 square miles. The village of Evergreen Park was incorporated in 1893, bucking the trend of surrounding towns who were requesting annexation to Chicago to survive. Evergreen Park acquired its name from a park in the center of the village. Since then development has caused it to be a residential section. The center of Evergreen Park is now 95th Street and Kedzie Avenue.
