What if I told you this park is named after a man who helped shape Chinatown? This is the Ping Tom Portrait Bust. It commemorates Ping Tom, a prominent figure in Chicago’s Chinatown. Ping Tom, a lifelong resident of Chinatown, wasn’t just a successful businessman. He was a pillar of his community. The Ping Tom Portrait Bust, donated in 2005, is a testament to his legacy. The Chinese American Development Corporation, which Ping Tom co-founded, commissioned the bust. It was crafted by Liao Huilan, a renowned Chinese sculptor. Liao Huilan boasts an impressive portfolio, with large-scale installations in cities across China. This bronze bust stands as a symbol of Ping Tom’s dedication to his community and to the creation of this very park.
