Logan Square
The boulevards. The scene. The culture.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD STORY

Logan Square has completed one of Chicago's most remarkable neighborhood transformations — from underinvested North Side community to the epicenter of the city's culinary and creative culture — while maintaining enough of its original working-class Latino character to remain genuinely interesting rather than merely curated. The broad Chicago boulevards, designated as a landmark system, create a visual grandeur that gives the neighborhood an urbanistic scale unlike anything else in Chicago. The restaurant scene — anchored by Lula Cafe and driven by a succession of talented chefs — has made Logan Square a destination for the entire metropolitan area.

WHY RESIDENTS LOVE IT

HOMES & ARCHITECTURE

Logan Square's housing stock is among the North Side's most architecturally varied. Greystone courtyard buildings and vintage single-family homes line the boulevard system and adjacent streets. Two-flats and three-flats are abundant throughout. New construction has added townhomes and boutique condominiums. The premium market has developed around the interior blocks closest to the boulevards and the 606, with values that have risen dramatically over the past decade.

THE LUXESQUIRE INSIDER TAKE

Logan Square's appreciation story is well-documented but not over. The buyers who came in on the first wave — pre-606, pre-Lula-fame — made extraordinary returns. The next wave is still being written by buyers who understand what the boulevard system represents architecturally and what the culinary density represents culturally. The entry points that exist today will not exist in five years.
