Bucktown
is a neighborhood located in the Logan Square community area in
Chicago, Illinois northwest of the Loop. Its boundaries are the
Chicago River to the east, North Western Avenue to the west, the
above-grade Bloomingdale Line to the south and West Fullerton
Avenue to the north. It is primarily residential, with a mix of
older single family homes, newer buildings with edgy architecture,
and converted industrial loft spaces. Bucktown is directly north
from Wicker Park.
If your looking
for big-city amenities with small-town charm, look no further
than the adjoining communities of Bucktown and Wicker Park, located
just northwest of downtown Chicago. An abundance of art galleries
and street-side cafes serve as constant reminders of the art movement's
humble beginnings. Residents--once drawn to the area by chic Chicago
restaurants, art galleries, and specialty boutiques--are now attracted
by a remarkable array of property selections. Throughout the community
loft buildings, century-old homes and three-story walkups can
be found alongside coffee shops, taverns, vintage stores and churches.
Home prices – once very affordable – have moved up
in recent years. Prices start in the mid-$150,000’s and
increase to $1+ million.
There are
many bars and restaurants in the vicinity of Bucktown and there
has been a large number of "teardowns" of the older
housing stock - replacing them with new and large residential
buildings.
There is
a significant amount of shopping on Damen Avenue from North Avenue
(in Wicker Park) going North until a few blocks north of Armitage
Avenue. Bucktown is readily accessible on the Blue Line.
Bucktown
gets its name from the large number of goats raised in the neighborhood
during the 19th century. A male goat is a buck.
