No Permit Necessary

Director of Photography: Duncan Hoag
Producers: Marina Hart Donahue, Lexie Garrett, Taylor Evans Ghosal & Keagan Hynes

"No Permit Necessary" is the story of Washington Square Park, AKA Bughouse Square. In the middle of Chicago’s Gold Coast neighborhood sits the unassuming Washington Square Park. It’s used by the neighborhood as a dog park, a place to enjoy lunch, or just somewhere to cut through. In its almost 200-year history, the small park has played an important role in Chicago’s rich history.
