Description:
Lakeview is one of Chicago’s oldest neighborhoods, blending a wide variety of urban lifestyles. Belmont Harbor and Diversey Harbor are densely populated areas similar to the Gold Coast and Streeterville. High-rises overlook the lake and vintage condominiums and apartments lie just west. Many units offer large square footage while still being near the lake and local shops and restaurants.
The central and western areas of Lakeview contain vintage apartments, storefront conversions, lofts and single-family homes. Residents have a 10-to-15-minute commute to downtown via Lake Shore Drive.
The area around Wrigley Field, known as Wrigleyville, consists of rehabbed Victorian greystones, two- and three-flat buildings and condominiums. One landmark street—Alta Vista Terrace—features rowhouses that resemble English Mews houses.
Southeast Ravenswood offers newer single-family homes and townhomes intermixed with vintage homes and condominiums.
