About McCormick/Greektown in Chicago, IL

Like many communities in the area, Native Americans were the first inhabitants of present-day Chicago. The first non-native settler to the area, Jean Baptiste Point du Sable, arrived in the 1780s and is considered the founder of Chicago.

Then, in 1829, the Illinois legislature hired James Thompson to help build the city. He surveyed the land and designed a plan for the town. During that time, there were fewer than 100 people living in the area. Chicago was incorporated as a town in 1833 and then reincorporated as a city in 1837. Today, more than 2.7 million residents call Chicago home.

Greektown is one of the neighborhoods in the larger Near West Side community area of Chicago. As its name suggests, the region once had a large population of Greek residents. Those residents have since moved throughout the city and into the suburbs, and Greektown is now known as a popular dining and nightlife district.
