About Lincoln Park

Lincoln Park runs from North Ave to Diversey between the lake and the river, and it's the most polished shared-housing market in the city. Expect renovated two- and three-bedroom units in walk-ups and garden apartments in converted rowhouses, most with dishwashers and updated kitchens.

Getting to work from Lincoln Park

The Brown and Purple Lines at Armitage and Fullerton reach the Loop in 15 minutes, the Red Line runs under Clark, and the 22 and 151 buses cover the lakefront. Walking to DePaul takes minutes.

Who shares apartments here

DePaul students and grad students, consultants, finance and medical residents at Lurie and Northwestern, and recent grads whose first Chicago apartment this is.

The trade-off

You pay the north-side premium and street parking is a genuine problem. Lakeview one neighborhood north gets you similar transit for less; garden units here are the budget option but flood risk is real.
