Elmhurst Details:

Elmhurst was incorporated as a village in 1882. It had a population of 1,050 residents and included legal boundaries of St. Charles Road to North Avenue, and one-half mile west of York Street to one-quarter mile east of York Street. Public improvements were soon provided by the village; police protection, a volunteer fire department, sewers, and plank sidewalks. Such private companies as Elmhurst Spring Water Company, Elmhurst Electric Light Company, and Chicago Telephone Company introduced other new services in the late nineteenth century.

Elmhurst more than tripled in size during the 1920's, growing from 4,594 residents to 14,055. The community also enjoyed the benefits of such new, modern city services as cement sidewalks, paved streets, ornamental electric streetlights, a city water department, and new sewer service. Many present day institutions were organized in the 1920's as well: Elmhurst Park District dates to 1920, and Elmhurst Hospital was established in 1926.

The post World War II era was a time of dramatic change. Demands for housing led to the creation of Emery Manor and Brynhaven subdivisions. New neighborhood schools also blossomed during the 1950s.

Today, Elmhurst continues to change; however, the City of Elmhurst is committed to shepherding the community into and through the next century by continuing its long history of services of the highest quality for residents and visitors. Working together, residents and the City can make certain that Elmhurst will continue to be a wonderful place to live and raise families.

Elmhurst Historical Museum is an exceptional resource for information about Elmhurst. Please visit it on this Web Site or call the museum for more information about exhibits, public programs, and other services for residents (833-1457).

Elmhurst is home to some notable organizations that have been a fixture of the community for many years. Elmhurst College is a four-year, independent, comprehensive college founded in 1871. This school ranks as one of the best liberal arts institutions in the Midwest. Click here for more information on Elmhurst College: www.elmhurst.edu.
