 Located
just west and north of downtown Chicago, Wicker Park and Bucktown
are known as the “hip and trendy” sister neighborhoods with Logan
Square just to the Northwest. They boast an independent, artistic
vibe with boutiques,
shops, cafes, fine
restaurants, craft breweries and vibrant nightlife.
While heavily gentrified
in the last decade, there is still a mix of old and new. From
historic mansions on
Hoyne or Logan Boulevard
to new condos and rehabbed lofts that dot the neighborhood,
there is an eclectic mix
of architecture, history, and charm.
 Wicker Park and Bucktown
are near some of the top summer music and art festivals including
the internationally renowned Pitchfork Festival, Renegade Craft
Fairs, West Fest, Do-Division, Green Music Festival, North Coast
Festival and the Bucktown Arts Festival.
There
are several major pedestrian-friendly, independent-minded retail
districts.
 The
center is commonly referred to as the six-corners, where Milwaukee,
Damen, and North
Avenue intersect with many live music venues, independent boutiques,
cafes, fine
restaurants and nightlife radiating from this hub. Logan Square is
just north of Bucktown on Milwaukee Avenue and you will want to
check out the restaurant scene on Division Street and digest what’s
on the delicious menus or find the perfect dress or pumps for your
night out.
Conveniently located
near everything, these neighborhoods are an ideal base for exploring
all of downtown Chicago's attractions. Visit Wicker Park, Bucktown
or Logan Square and experience one of the top destinations for
locals and visitors alike.
