Overview
Historically, the Marquette Park lagoons marked the location where the Grand Calumet River flowed into Lake Michigan. As industry in the area developed, the flow of the Grand Calumet was altered, and the lagoons are now a part of the headwaters of the east branch of the Grand Calumet River. Over the decades the lagoons have been the subject of many restoration efforts, repairing damage caused by erosion and sedimentation, improving public access to the lagoon, and restoring the natural landscape. Paddlers now can access the lagoon for a tranquil nature experience in the heart of the city. Canoemobile has been paddling and enjoying this waterway with locals since 2014.
