Lincoln Park greystones and two-flats often keep a shared basement laundry, where two households' machines use one floor drain and one exhaust wall, so maintenance there clears both lint paths and checks the drain and hoses for the whole building. ## What Lincoln Park does to a home appliance. Part of today's Lincoln Park, on the neighborhood's northern edge, began as the city cemetery in 1843, and by 1864 the city had relocated roughly 35,000 graves to convert the land into parkland and residential lots. Residents fled into the park for safety during the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, and rebuilding afterward set the pattern for much of the housing that now surrounds it. The park itself expanded south and then north along seven miles of lakefront between the 1860s and the 1950s, with the residential blocks around it filling in as each stretch was completed.
