Explore Homan Square
A neighborhood which first came to prominence as a refuge from the Great Chicago Fire, only to be nearly destroyed by arson a century later, Homan Square proudly stands today as one of the city's prime examples of urban renewal and revitalization. New commercial and residential development, coupled with strong support from the city and private investors, has made Homan Square a thriving community with a shopping, dining and entertainment scene. The modern homes, green commons and planned layout of the neighborhood provide a pleasant and spacious backdrop that is rather rare in Chicago. Homan Square incorporates curving drives and mini-subdivisions – a nice change to the city's conventional grid-like block arrangement. A public community center is the icing on the cake for Homan Square residents. The campus offers family, health, recreation and education services in a beautiful indoor facility that even boasts an Olympic-size swimming pool and state-of-the-art exercise equipment.
