About Gold Coast in Chicago, IL
Native Americans were the first people to live in the area that later became Chicago. In the 1780s, Jean Baptiste Point du Sable became the first non-native settler to arrive and is considered the founder of the city. But after the War of 1812 and the Treaty of St. Louis, the Native Americans had to give their land to the United States.
The Illinois legislature hired James Thompson in 1829 to survey that land and create a design for the city of Chicago. The community was officially incorporated as a town in 1833 and reincorporated later in 1837 as a city. Today, Chicago is home to more than 2.7 million residents.
Gold Coast is a historic district that's part of Chicago's Near North Side community area. The neighborhood began being developed after the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. In 1882, a millionaire named Potter Palmer built a 42-room mansion that looked like a castle. Others followed Palmer into the neighborhood, which became one of the wealthiest areas of Chicago. One of Gold Coast's boundaries is the Magnificent Mile, an upscale stretch of Michigan Avenue.
