.

The Worker Cottage Parklet is a tribute to the workers of the past, present, and future who make their homes in Bucktown and Wicker Park. Between 1870 and 1910 thousands of “worker cottages” were built to house the Scandinavian, German, southern and eastern European immigrants who arrived for jobs in the stockyards and to rebuild the city after the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. These cottages were the first affordable homes available to working class citizens with modern conveniences such as indoor plumbing, kitchen away from dining area, and separate bedrooms for children.
