One of the best parts of the South Shore neighborhood is, well, the shore. The area is home to a pristine stretch of lakefront that includes one of the city’s largest beaches. Wander away from the water and into the neighborhood to discover a wealth of rich cultural offerings and eye-catching architecture. Just north of Rainbow Beach Park, the South Shore Cultural Center is one of the neighborhood’s crown jewels. Housed in a former country club, the center is nestled on manicured, picnic-worthy grounds that include a nature sanctuary, a butterfly garden, and a nine-hole golf course. Inside, you’ll find a rich array of cultural programming, a restaurant run by the in-house culinary institute, and a theatre that hosts a variety of community groups like the South Shore Opera. The center was also the site of Barack and Michelle Obama’s wedding reception. Predominantly a middle-class African American community on the city's south side, South Shore was at one time promoted as a vacation spot for wealthy Chicagoans and a destination for the elite. The neighborhood's jewel, the South Shore Cultural Center, was formerly known as the South Shore Country Club. A typical commute to the Loop from the South Shore using public transportation is around 30 to 45 minutes, door to door.
