About Lincoln Park Chicago
Lincoln Park is one of Chicago's most vibrant and historic neighborhoods, situated just north of downtown. It is home to many well-known landmarks such as the Lincoln Park Zoo and Conservatory and the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum. The park itself is one of the largest in the city, spanning over 1,200 acres and offering a variety of recreational opportunities including biking, running, and tennis. It's no surprise that Lincoln Park has become one of the most desirable neighborhoods to live in, with a mixture of housing options to choose from high rise living, single-family homes that are between $1.5M to $50M, and 3 flats.
The neighborhood is home to several highly regarded schools, including Lincoln Park High School, Oscar Meyer Elementary, and private schools Francis Parker and Catherine Cook. In addition to the schools, there are several parks throughout the area. One of the most notable is Oz Park, which is dedicated to the classic story of "The Wizard of Oz." The park features beautiful statues of each of the Oz characters including Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Lion.
Within Lincoln Park is Old Town, which is home to the world-renowned Second City and Steppenwolf theaters. These theaters have launched the careers of exceptional comedic and dramatic talent, including Tina Fey, Stephen Colbert, Chris Farley, John Belushi, Tim Meadows, Bonnie Hunt, and Chicago's beloved Bill Murray. The best summer art fair, Old Town Art Fair, takes place here, and The Green City Market is held in the summer every Wednesday and Saturday mornings. North Pond Nature Area and Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum are also popular attractions.
Notable residents of the area include Al Capone, who was believed to have orchestrated the infamous St. Valentine's Day Massacre at the Clark Street garage in the heart of Lincoln Park. Another notable spot in the neighborhood is Grinder Pizza and Oven Grinder, which serves up their signature pizza pot pie.
The luxury high-rise buildings in the area include 2500 Lakeview and 1550 N. Clark, and premier residential buildings include One Bennett Park, which has private access to Bennett Park after hours, and residences at Aqua and St. Regis, which is the tallest female-designed building in the world created by "Starchitect" Jeanne Gang, Cirrus, and The Hayden. The area also has its own grocery store, private school GEMS Academy, and easy access to the Lake Shore bike path, which stretches for 18 miles along the lakefront.
In addition, the neighborhood is home to the famous Tribune Tower Residences, and is conveniently located near Navy Pier and its Children's Museum, a movie theater, and a bowling alley. Overall, Lincoln Park offers residents the perfect mix of historic charm and modern amenities, making it a sought-after destination for those looking to live in one of Chicago's most vibrant neighborhoods.
