Lakeview, Chicago
A Chicago, IL neighborhood: what the housing is, what is nearby, and what has closed there.
Bordered by Diversey Parkway, Irving Park Road, Ravenswood Avenue, and Lake Michigan, Lakeview features a mix of mid-rise brick courtyard buildings, high-rise lakefront towers, greystones, and converted walk-ups. Commercial corridors include Broadway, Clark Street, and Belmont Avenue.
Homes in Lakeview
Housing consists of Victorian frame residences, masonry greystones, brick courtyard buildings, and lakefront high-rise condominium towers. Most properties sit on standard 25-foot urban grid lots with alley-fed detached garages alongside newer multi-unit infill.
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.
