LAKEFRONT LIVING

 

ABOUT LINCOLN PARK


Lincoln Park is Chicago’s most desirable neighborhood located along a two-mile drive stretch along Lake Shore Drive and its namesake park, just north of downtown Chicago. Jog along the shorelines of Lake Michigan to take in the skyline and sunset views. Explore the meandering pathways leading you through lagoons and ponds located throughout the parks.

Browse the artisanal coffee shops, boutique shops, bookstores, and notable restaurants. Home to numerous museums, one of the Nation’s oldest Zoos, an array of award-winning schools and nationally famed theaters, Lincoln Park offers a living experience like no other.
