Why Old Town?

History and sophistication go hand in hand in the Old Town neighborhood, which features historical landmarks, unique cultural offerings, easy access to the lakefront and Lincoln Park, and a convenient location just north of downtown to make for a wonderful place to live. While much of the neighborhood is dotted with high-rise apartments and luxury condominiums, the side streets of Old Town hide some magnificent single-family homes and mansions that offer a combination of space and proximity to downtown that few neighborhoods can match.
