…new urban convenience

Here in the Near North area, surrounded by rolling hills and tree-lined streets, you might forget that you’re five minutes from the center of downtown. But stroll down Washington Avenue and you’ll remember: this is the super convenient area where it’s likely you can walk to work within ten minutes, go out to the latest and best places and never be too far away, plus you’re close enough to the freeway that getting out of the city is a breeze.

Near North encompasses everything you might hear about “new urbanism”—as a mixed-income, high-amenity area, it’s designed to create a community and culture that people love to be a part of.

You'll find lots of housing in this 'hood, including Near North apartments, townhomes and new developments. Browse new galleries, check out shops, try great restaurants, or stay outside and play in Wirth Park, which is complete with trails, a beach and a nearby community garden.

All this, right in the heart of the city.
