NORTH CENTER

North Center is one of Chicago’s most dynamic neighborhoods—a vibrant blend of cultures, generations, and traditions that reflect the city’s spirit. This community is made up of four sub-neighborhoods: Roscoe Village, Northcenter, St. Ben’s, and Hamlin Park. Bordered by Diversey Parkway to the south, Ravenswood Avenue to the east, and the Chicago River to the west, it centers around the historic “Six Corners” intersection of Irving Park, Damen, and Lincoln.

Known for its thriving small business scene, eclectic dining, live music, and strong sense of community, North Center balances city energy with neighborhood charm. Beautiful tree-lined streets, top-rated public schools, and ample green space make it an ideal place to raise a family. Historically, its classic two- and three-flat buildings offered a path to homeownership for immigrant families— who often lived in one unit and rented the others to cover costs. That legacy continues today, with North Center offering a mix of unique properties for both residents and investors. The neighborhood is easily accessible via the CTA Brown Line, with stops at Montrose, Irving Park, and Addison, along with several convenient bus routes.

The CTA offers Brown Line train service and bus service in the neighborhood.

WELLES (GIDEON) PARK

Located in the heart of Lincoln Square at Lincoln and Montrose Avenues sits the 15.84-acre Welles Park, a gathering place for musicians and sports and fitness enthusiasts of all kinds. Many residents enjoy the park’s indoor pool—using it year-round for lap swims, instruction, and aqua exercise. Others visit Welles Park’s fitness center for a workout, while some prefer a leisurely game of horseshoes at the park’s outdoor pits or a competitive game of tennis or pickleball on the outdoor courts.

The Chicago Park District installed and unveiled a green, wrought-iron, European-style gazebo on the west side of the park as a centerpiece for the Lincoln Square community. Equipped with electricity for lights and sound, the gazebo is used for outdoor concerts, storytelling and other performances.

In Spring 2010 the park district unveiled a new action packed ADA accessible/softsurface playground for community children. On the many fields at Welles Park, one can find baseball, softball, track and field, and football. Preschoolers get involved in tot soccer, floor hockey, tumbling and various play groups, while older children can participate in tumbling, arts & crafts, swimming and many sports. Welles Park also provides activities for adults and children who are developmentally disabled through its therapeutic recreation programs.
