Overview
Ravenswood's boundaries are as fluid and flexible as the creative folks who live there. Some say it's part of Lincoln Square, others Lakeview or Uptown. All are technically correct, but it's easy to see why other Chicago neighborhoods want to claim this one. With awesome culinary and arts scenes, Ravenswood is not just a night-out destination, but a place for a family, foodie, or burgeoning creative to plant their feet.
Ravenswood's history dates back to the late 1800s when a real estate group developed the land to be a prime neighborhood for families and commuters--a reputation the area still holds today. Full of historic, architecturally inspiring homes and a renowned entertainment district, Ravenswood is a local favorite nestled on the city's North Side. Ravenswood manages to capture the convenience of the city combined with the charm of a smaller town, and thanks to a very active Chamber of Commerce, there are neighborhood festivals scheduled year-round. With everything from a neighborhood-wide garage sale to a local art walk, this neighborhood cultivates a community among its residents.
