Chicago
Real Estate
According
to the Bucktown Community Organization, remains
of the “good old days” of this Chicago neighborhood
can still be found in Bucktown, “cobblestone alleys; streetcar
tracks peeking through potholes, a water pump in a yard near Leavitt
and McLean, old street numbers in stained glass on Oakley, privy
rooms under vaulted sidewalks, and, of course, the beautiful,
sturdy century-old buildings.” Clearly, Bucktown’s
history is grand, but it is future is just as promising. Small
neighborhood bars are found on every corner, and both North and
Damen Avenues boast smoky late-night clubs and stylish bars, shops,
and restaurants. Bucktown has no shortage of culture—“Gallery
Point,” is the area’s central art colony, (bounded
by Milwaukee, Damen, Wabansia and North Avenues), and the "Bucktown
Arts Fest," continues to attract 30,000 plus art lovers to
the area every August, a beloved Bucktown tradition for well over
20 years.
