Less than two miles north of downtown Chicago, Old Town has a lively urban atmosphere and plenty of green spaces — the best of both worlds. The historic neighborhood features charming Victorian-era buildings, tree-lined streets, and a bustling shopping, bar, and restaurant scene. Home to the iconic Second City comedy club, Old Town is just a mile west of Lake Michigan with easy access to Lincoln Park, which offers a world-class zoo and nature conservatory. Located on North Wells Street between Division Street and North Avenue, the neighborhood is part of Chicago’s Near North Side and Lincoln Park.
