Established in the mid-1800s, the neighborhood now known as Lincoln Park first attracted affluent settlers because of its proximity to Lake Michigan. The main park, where Lincoln Park Zoo is now situated, was actually first named Lake Park until the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. The Great Fire of Chicago in 1871 also affected parts of Lincoln Park, forcing residents to rebuild even more lavish and architecturally aesthetic mansions, homes and brownstones. D aul University was established in 1907. The Great Depression affected Lincoln Park to the extent that housing stock deteriorated and homeowners neglected their properties. That led to the formation of the Old Town Triangle Association and Lincoln Park Conservation Association in the 1950s. These groups aggressively pursued public government funds to keep up the maintenance of the residences as well as property values. Today Lincoln Park maintains an affluent image as one of the most prosperous neighborhoods in the country.
