Distinctive Housing in Old Town Chicago
Famous for distinctive architectural
character,
the area is packed with charming
cottages,
rowhouses and townhouses of both
brick and
frame construction. Many of its
streets are
narrow, giving it an intimate,
historic feel.
Several high-rise buildings with
park and
lake views run along the edge
of the park.
Background and History of Old
Town
The land known as Old Town originally
served
as a home and trade center to
many Nations
including Potawatomi, Miami and
Illinois.[2]
Following the Treaty of Chicago
in 1833,
most of the indigenous people
were forcibly
removed, and the land was then
settled by
German-Catholic immigrants in
the mid to
late 19th century. Clark Street
is a leftover
of the culture, it being an old
road which
followed the high point next
to Lake Michigan.
Old Town was one of the first
neighborhoods
to be gentrified, almost 40 years
ago. Today,
it is home to some of Chicago's
finest and
most expensive housing. A neighbor
of Lincoln
Park, Old Town's main thoroughfares
includes
Division, Armitage, Clark and
Halsted

Background and History of Lincoln
Park
The area now known as Lincoln
Park in Chicago
was still primarily forest with
stretches
of grassland and occasional quicksand,
and
was virtually untouched by Europeans
as late
as the 1820s.
In 1824 the United States Army
built a small
post near today's Clybourn and
Armitage Avenues.
Indian settlements existed along
Green Bay
Trail, now called Clark Street
(named after
explorer George Rogers Clark),
at the current
intersection of Halsted Street
and Fullerton
Avenue.
In 1836, land from North to Fullerton
and
from the lake to Halsted was
inexpensive
because the area was considered
remote. Therefore,
a small pox hospital and the
city cemetery
were located in Lincoln Park
until the 1860s.
In 1837 Chicago was incorporated
as a city,
and North Avenue was established
as its northern
boundary. Settlements increased
along Green
Bay Trail when the government
offered land
claims and Green Bay Road was
widened
