NEIGHBORHOOD VIBE.
The South Loop is nothing if not a dynamic mix of geography. Just south of the business district, it’s full of modern high-rises with a downtown feel. But the eastern side boasts a sprawling stretch of parks and green space anchored by world-class museums such as the Field Museum and Adler Planetarium. The neighborhood has been steadily redeveloping with more and more big box retail and a solid collection of great restaurants and bars. It’s also a hub for jazz, blues and soul. Despite its downtown location, it still retains a laid-back living experience vibe. And who doesn’t love being able to walk to work?
