Spring-Douglas, Elgin

A Elgin, IL neighborhood: what the housing is, what is nearby, and what has closed there.

The Spring-Douglas Historic District is located north of downtown on the east side of the Fox River. It features late nineteenth and early twentieth century residential architecture, including Queen Anne, Shingle style, and American Foursquare homes. The area follows a standard urban street grid framed by North Spring Street and Douglas Avenue.

Homes in Spring-Douglas

This historic neighborhood contains Queen Anne, Italianate, and Victorian single-family homes constructed between 1880 and 1930. Structures sit on narrow urban lots along a grid street pattern, typically served by detached rear garages accessed through alleys or side driveways.

Spring-Douglas sits inside Elgin, so the Elgin market report is the right read on prices and pace; the figures beside this are the town's, not the neighborhood's.
