Old Town Real Estate

Old Town real estate (also known as Old Town Triangle) rests on both sides of North Avenue, to the north, abutting its affluent Lincoln Park neighbor, and to the south adjacent to the "being dismantled as we speak" Cabrini Green housing project. As its name implies, a walk along Chicago's Old Town neighborhood's streets transports visitors back in time. Narrow cobbled streets lined with distinctly vintage-style cottages, rowhouses, and townhouses made of both brick and frame contribute to the amiably warm, old-fashioned small-town atmosphere of Old Town. 

A stroll through Old Town beginning at the ornate metal entrance gateway is a unique experience in itself.  One may feel small-town vibes contrasted with the big-city proximity suggested by the occasional high-rise building. Stunning sunrises are spied from Old Town's eastern edge adjacent to Lake Michigan. Old Town is known for housing some of Chicago’s most luxurious and finest 19th century Victorian homes. South of North Avenue the neighborhood has experienced an unparalleled rate of growth with luxury condos and a growing number of not inexpensive single family homes.

To savor Old Town requires ambling down Wells Street... dining pleasures range from top shelf Mexican at Adobo Grill to Topo Gigio's Italian... from the cigar paradise at Up Down Tobacco to the greenery at A New Leaf... from the side-splitting laughs at The Second City to the sugar coma potential of Fudge Pot. Welcome to Old Town, where I lived for years.
