Bloomingdale Trail Park, previously Park No. 572, is a 15.6-acre (6.3 ha) 2.7-mile (4.3 km) long elevated linear park running east–west along Bloomingdale Avenue between Ashland Avenue and Lawndale Avenue on the northwest side of Chicago. Part of the The 606 network and operated by the Chicago Park District, it is the longest greenway project of a former elevated rail line in the Western Hemisphere, and the second longest in the world after Promenade plantée René-Dumont in Paris. In 2015, the City of Chicago converted the former Bloomingdale railway line to an elevated greenway and rail trail. The Park is in the Logan Square, Humboldt Park, and West Town community areas.
