Explore Uptown

From the bustling and historic entertainment district to the picturesque lakefront, Chicago's Uptown neighborhood is buzzing with a variety of interesting shops, ethnic restaurants, exciting clubs and eclectic boutiques. Sharing its coveted Lake Michigan beaches with other communities along the water's edge, Uptown owns the market on island paradise-like sands and beautiful shoreline parkland. There is even a public skatepark where rollerbladers and skateboarders can practice their moves and share wipe-out stories with fellow Uptown skaters. Set back from the Lake Michigan shore are the sought-after residential blocks of stately, landmark mansions and vintage, courtyard condominiums. Uptown has its share modern lofts and rehabbed residences, too. Upgraded condo conversions and top-of-the-line finishes are standard in much of the real estate available today. But, if you prefer that antiquated charm, with a fixer-up feel the old, un-renovated buildings of Uptown will be right up your alley.
