What Is There to Do Here?

Living in Old Town Chicago apartments means being surrounded by fun. Wells Street between North Avenue and Division Street is the main drag, although “drag” is hardly the right word! World-renowned Second City and Zanies Comedy Club provide all the laughs you want. Other area nightspots include A Red Orchid Theatre and a variety of bars and taverns. Wells Street is also home to family-owned restaurants, specialty fudge shops, cigar stores, spice shops and more. Are you hungry? You can dine on pizza, sushi, pasta, ribs and other delights. Bordering the west edge of Old Town are the famed Steppenwolf Theatre Company and the Royal George Theatre.

Summer in Old Town is a delight! Walk east to North Avenue Beach, stroll along the quaint streets or take in a festival. The nationally acclaimed Old Town Art Fair presents the work of hundreds of artists and offers a garden walk, music stage, food court and children’s corner. Approximately 30,000 art lovers attend this event every year. The fair is located in the charming Old Town Triangle Historic District, known for being one of the few areas not laid out in Chicago’s typical grid pattern.
