A man died after he was pulled from Lake Michigan Thursday afternoon in Streeterville near the Play Pen.
Chicago police marine unit personnel responded to the 800 block of North Lake Shore Drive for a person in the water and pulled 39-year-old Justin Kramarczyk from the lake, police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said.
Kramarczyk, of the Near South Side, was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital initially in critical condition but was pronounced dead at 3:39 p.m., the medical examiner’s office said.
Tucked in an enclave between Oak Street and Ohio Street beaches, the Playpen is a popular party spot for boaters on summer weekends in Chicago.
The location has experienced its share of high-profile rescues and drownings in recent years.
In July of 2023, a woman was killed and six people were rescued when a boat hit a breakwall near the Playpen.
In August 2022, a woman’s feet were severed in a boating accident.
A week after that incident a man’s body was pulled from the lake in the Playpen area.
No further information was immediately available.
