Lakeview & Wrigleyville |

One
of the most sought-after areas of the city, the Chicago neighborhood
of
Lakeview is the most populated area in the Midwest largely
due to its great dining, shopping and nightlife. It is a very young neighborhood,
with much of its population under 30, as housing is slightly cheaper than
neighborhoods nearer to the Loop. But its four mile proximity to the Loop
makes it a prime real estate destination.
It
is also home to the Chicago Cubs' Wrigley Field, and
a part of the neighborhood is named for it. The many bars and restaurants
are always full, especially during baseball season when they feed and
entertain thousands of fans. The Wrigleyville section
of Lakeview is
bounded by Halsted, Ashland, Roscoe and Byron. There are more than 600
retail stores on the east side alone and Diversey, Clark, Halsted and
Broadway boast strong commercial development. Chicago's gay district is
located in Lakeview East in an area known as "Boy's
Town". The population is diverse and alternative lifestyles
are celebrated and embraced.
The pleasant surprise of Lakeview & Wrigleyville is
that once you venture 20 steps from the main shopping, restaurant and bar/club
areas, you'll find yourself in beautifully maintained tree-lined streets,
with rows of lovely houses in all manner of architectural styles, ranging
in age from near-century-old to 3 days ago. This is likely the other primary
reason for this area's popularity; one can buy or rent a gorgeous house
on a gorgeous street, then walk for 5 minutes and be in one of the city's
mecca shopping/nightlife districts.
Transportation in and out of this particular neighborhood is plentiful, with
the Ravenswood El Red, Purple and Brown line stops at Sheridan, Sheffield,
Southport, Addison, Belmont, Wellington, and Diversey and CTA buses running
on Sheridan, Halsted, Clark, Belmont, Lincoln, Diversey and Addison.
