About Logan Square

Overview of Logan Square

First settled in the mid-1800s, Logan Square was named after Civil War hero and congressman General John A. Logan. The Near West Side neighborhood has experienced a recent resurgence that has it in direct competition with adjacent neighborhoods Bucktown and Wicker Park. As Logan Square continues to develop, it has become more desirable to retailers and restaurants, yet it hasn't lost its culturally-diverse 'soul.' Logan Square's high-profile dining and nightlife scenes, in particular, have garnered national attention, accolades and awards, drawing a steady stream of tourists.

Transportation and Livability

Logan Square's boundaries are Diversey Avenue to the north, Fullerton Avenue to the south, Western Avenue to the east and Central Park Street to the west. The neighborhood is approximately five miles northwest from downtown Chicago and is easily accessible by public transportation via the Blue Line elevated trains at California Avenue, Logan Square Boulevard and Western Avenue.

Livability

Logan Square remains a diverse community that's dominated by rich, Hispanic heritage and a community of artists. It's also very residential, with pockets of quiet streets, vintage buildings and newer, upscale properties. It's become a desirable place to live for young professionals and young families for its varied selection of cafes and restaurants. The epicenter, aptly named Logan Square, is along Logan Boulevard at Milwaukee Avenue and Whipple Street. It's a walkable area for the stroller set and people with pets, and it's also the location of the year-round Logan Square Farmers Market. Surrounding neighborhoods are Avondale, Bucktown, Humboldt Park, Roscoe Village and Wicker Park.

Neighborhood Life

Long before Logan Square became a trendy neighborhood known for its dining and nightlife options, it was popular with early adapters of the farm-to-table movement. Lula Cafe opened in 1999 in a small storefront and immediately gained a reputation for using fresh ingredients. Within several years, other restaurants followed suit, turning Logan Square into a nationally-recognized culinary destination. Some of the most popular eateries here are Billy Sunday, Longman & Eagle, Revolution Brewing, Scofflaw and Yusho. Additional attractions include a number of thrift stores, antique shops and vintage churches. Street parking in Logan Square is much easier than downtown and in neighborhoods such as Lincoln Park and River North. Although there are a few parking lots in the most frequented areas, the challenge is that most restaurants and bars do not offer valet service.

Logan Square History

New Yorker Martin Kimbell settled the area that is now known as Logan Square when he claimed 160 acres in 1836. European immigrants followed and the neighborhood steadily grew, particularly after the notorious Chicago Fire of 1871, which devastated what is now downtown Chicago. By the 1960s, Logan Square was mainly comprised of bohemians and Hispanics. Today, the neighborhood continues to enjoy a culturally- and ethnically-diverse population that complements its trendy dining and nightlife scenes.
