Logan Square Real Estate
Logan Square is expansive in the best way, with grand boulevards, quiet residential pockets, busy stretches of Milwaukee Avenue, and plenty of room to find your place.
Logan Square stretches across Chicago’s Northwest Side, centered around its historic boulevard system and the Milwaukee Avenue corridor. Here, you’ll find greystone two-flats and three-flats, workers cottages, courtyard buildings, newer condos, and single-family homes, along with parks, restaurants, and direct Blue Line access to downtown. The neighborhood offers plenty of activity without feeling defined by a single commercial district. The Everett Group has represented buyers and sellers throughout Logan Square for years, and we know how much the experience changes from one pocket to the next: around Palmer Square, The 606, or on the quieter residential streets beyond Milwaukee Avenue.
Logan Square sits on Chicago's northwest side, generally bounded by the Milwaukee District North Metra line to the west, the North Branch of the Chicago River to the east, Diversey Parkway to the north, and the Bloomingdale Trail (better known as The 606) to the south.
The historic boulevard system gives Logan Square some of the most recognizable residential streets in Chicago. Greystone two-flats and three-flats, brick apartment buildings, workers cottages, and vintage courtyard buildings reflect the neighborhood's long history. Newer condominiums and single-family homes have added another layer.
About the Neighborhood
Life in Logan Square
Ask any Logan Square resident what keeps them there and you'll probably hear some version of "the food, the parks, and the people." A few highlights:
The Logan Square Farmers Market, a long-running neighborhood institution that draws some of the city's best local vendors during the warmer months
The 606, an elevated trail built on old rail tracks that connects Logan Square to Bucktown and Wicker Park, perfect for walking, running, or biking
A deep, ever-changing restaurant scene, from casual neighborhood spots to some of the most talked-about tables in the city
Palmer Square Park and the boulevard medians, which give the neighborhood a genuinely green, walkable feel that's hard to find elsewhere in the city
Getting Around
One of the biggest draws for buyers is how easy Logan Square makes it to get anywhere else in the city. The CTA Blue Line runs straight through the neighborhood with a stop at its namesake square, connecting you to the Loop in one direction and O'Hare in the other. Several CTA bus routes run through the area as well, and the neighborhood sits close enough to the Kennedy Expressway to make driving downtown or out to the suburbs simple too. The 606 can also function as a practical bike route for shorter trips.
The Logan Square Market
Logan Square has seen real appreciation over the past several years and remains one of the more competitive markets on the North Side. Pricing varies quite a bit depending on property type, with condos, vintage multi-unit buildings, single-family homes, and new construction all part of the mix.
