@properties: Bucktown

As an artists' community, nightlife hotspot, foodie destination, and shopping mecca, Bucktown is undisputedly one of Chicago's trendiest neighborhoods.

Bucktown's restaurant scene is diverse and local friendly. Residents also enjoy a unique mix of independent bookstores, shops, bars, galleries, and theaters. Meanwhile, upscale retailers have made the neighborhood a designer destination.

Overlooking the six corners intersection, a stunning Art Deco skyscraper is now a modern boutique hotel with a rooftop bar and amazing views. A stately historic bank building on the corner is now home to a pharmacy with stunning archways and stained-glass ceilings.

Located a few miles northwest of The Loop, Bucktown has a variety of housing including modern new construction, stately brownstones, and loft apartments and condominiums.

Between the CTA's Blue Line, the 606 Trail, and numerous bus routes, it's easy for residents to get to surrounding neighborhoods. Likewise, drivers appreciate being able to hop on the expressway just east of the community.
