答案

Lincoln Park is a 1,208 acre (4.9 km², 1.8875 mi², 488,86 ha) park along the Chicago, Illinois' lakefront facing Lake Michigan. Lincoln Park is Chicago's largest public park. The park stretches for seven miles (11 km) from Ohio Street (400 N) on the south[1][2] to near Ardmore Avenue (5800 N) on the north, just north of the Lake Shore Drive terminus at Hollywood Avenue.[3] The major park zoo and museums are located between North Avenue (1600 N) and Diversey Parkway (2800 N) in the neighborhood that takes its name from the park, Lincoln Park. The park further to the north is characterized by parkland, beaches and harbors. To the south, there is a more narrow strip of beaches east of Lake Shore Drive, almost to downtown.
The park's recreational facilities include 15 baseball areas, 6 basketball courts, softball fields, soccer fields, 35 tennis courts, 163 volley ball courts, field houses, a driving range and golf course. The park also includes a number of harbors with boating facilities, as well as public beaches. There are landscaped gardens, bird refuges, a zoo, the Lincoln Park Conservatory, the Chicago History Museum, the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum, the Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool, and a theater on the lake with regular outdoor performances during the summer.
