This is the best place for swimming in the City. There is no beach right at the point but there are two great ones just to the south. On the North Side of the Point are places where you can stand while in the water. The south side has some ladders to get out of the water and is a favorite spot for open swimming.

A quiet neighborhood full of historic worker's cottage homes, Bridgeport is close to the Loop, Chinatown, and bustling Pilsen. Catch a White Sox game or visit one of the great restaurants and taverns. A thriving underground arts scene is also fun to explore.
