Lakeview, Chicago
A Chicago, IL neighborhood: what the housing is, what is nearby, and what has closed there.
Bounded by Diversey Parkway to the south, Irving Park Road to the north, Lake Michigan to the east, and Ravenswood Avenue to the west. Housing includes brick multi-flats, vintage courtyard buildings, lakefront high-rises, and newer townhomes. The Belmont transit station serves three CTA train lines.
Homes in Lakeview
Residential stock includes late nineteenth-century frame houses, brick three-flats, and courtyard buildings, as well as high-rise condominiums closer to the lakefront. Buildings are constructed on standard 25-by-125-foot grid lots with alley-accessed parking and modern infill construction.
Lakeview sits inside Chicago, so the Chicago market report is the right read on prices and pace; the figures beside this are the town's, not the neighborhood's.
