Around the block

Named for the goats that wandered the streets more than a century ago, today Bucktown is a trendy triangle of land in Chicago's West Town area. Historic lowrise buildings, converted lofts, brownstones, bungalows, condominiums, and recent builds of larger single-family homes bring a diversity of options to homebuyers. All along Damen Avenue, boutiques, shops, fitness studios, bars, and eateries abound. These aren't Bucktown's only offerings, as stretches of other retail and dining options radiate off the Six Corners intersection. Bucktown has a reputation for being an arts hub in the city, with independent bookstores and galleries now sharing space with upscale and designer retailers. Live entertainment, ranging from music to theater, and the Bucktown Arts Fest intersect culture and community. Holstein Park has a green space, pool, and sports fields. Senior Citizens Memorial Park is your chance to play chess and checkers al fresco. Ehrler Park is known for its colorful playground and volleyball courts. In recent years, the opening of the 606 has heralded a new way to get around the area. Bikers, walkers, and joggers take to this trail for both recreating and commuting. Eminently walkable, Bucktown also has quick access to 90/94 and the Blue Line and bus routes to conveniently get around town or out to O'Hare.
