Located in Chicago's Near Northwest side, Lincoln Park is one of Chicago's most recognized neighborhoods. Boasting proximity near both the Loop and Lake, Lincoln Park has been a highly sought location to call home for years fully developed, replete with theaters, restaurants, boutiques, retailers and a vibrant nightlife. From destination dining to world-class culture, the pulsing community area has plenty to offer. Lincoln Park's wealth of transportation options and proximity to Chicago's Loop business district (3 miles) make it a great choice for commuters, and the lakeshore park with its beaches, bike paths and abundant green space functions as the city's collective front lawn in the summer. The CTA Brown Line has stops at Armitage, Fullerton, Diversey and Sedgewick, and the Red Line stops at North & Clybourn as well as Fullerton. Many CTA Bus routes transverse Lincoln Park, as well. Lincoln Park stays true to its name by maintaining 1,200 acres of lakeside parkland lined with multi-use paths, beaches, softball diamonds and sun-dappled gardens within its borders. Explore the lakeshore on the Lakefront Trail or soak up rays at North Avenue Beach. Also, situated within the park is the Lincoln Park Zoo (2001 N. Clark), a free, world-class zoo in a pleasant, visitor-friendly setting.
