Neighborhoods

Classic chicago, you'll find it all in Wicker Park. Hipsters, townies, young professionals, some real urban feel with history, and diversity. All accompanied by tree lined streets, young professionals and strollers. Some of the best restaurants in the city without the noise and headache of being directly downtown.
