Lincoln Park is perhaps Chicago’s most popular neighborhood, which has its borders from Diversey to the north, North Avenue to the south, Lake Michigan to the east, and Clybourn to the west.

The neighborhood is named for the vast stretch of park along Lake Michigan, which has the city’s outdoor zoo and Turtle Park. Lincoln Park has the most restaurants, bars, clubs, and botiques per capita and is considered the heart of the northside of Chicago. The neighborhood is made up of students from DePaul University, recent college graduates, young professionals, and families.

Lincoln park is known for being one of the “green” parts of the city, with lots of quiet tree-lined residential streets with some of the city’s most expensive real estate. Striking greystones, brick townhomes; and charming row houses, and tucked-away coach homes, along with a mix of mansions, two-flats, apartments, condos and frame homes make up the landscape of this upscale community.
