CITY OF CROWN POINT PETER D. LAND Mayor Letter from the Mayor Hello! My name is Peter D. Land, and I am proud to serve as the 13th mayor of the City of Crown Point, Indiana. Located about 50 miles from Chicago, Crown Point is the best place to visit in Northwest Indiana. Our great city is best captured by the Historic Lake County Courthouse, the icon of our historic downtown square. The Courthouse, also known as the Grand Old Lady, is a testament to the community spirit that lives in Crown Point and celebrates our dedication to preserving history and celebrating everyday life. Our City is dedicated to providing the best city services to our growing community. People move to Crown Point to raise their families, enroll in our top-rated schools and enjoy a hometown feel. Businesses that choose to open their doors in our City receive a warm welcome and a willingness from the community to help them succeed. With our "SHOP LOCAL" campaign, we continue to promote and protect their investments. Together, we believe in our core mission of "BUILDING A STRONGER COMMUNITY FROM WITHIN." Crown Point continues to be named "BEST OF THE REGION," touting our unique downtown and award-winning quality-of-life amenities, including our premier 95-acre sports complex that features football, lacrosse, soccer, softball and baseball for all ages. Our newest facility, Bulldog Park, is another reason Crown Point has become an award-winning destination in Northwest Indiana. The Bulldog Park Franciscan Health Pavilion, Amphitheater & Recreation Center provides the perfect atmosphere for festivals, concerts, farmers markets, car cruises, parties and ice skating (in season). Our City is the ideal place to LIVE, WORK, and PLAY. The City also is home to premier golf courses, including WHITE HAWK CC and YOUCHE CC.
