Pilsen

Pilsen Neighborhood is located in the southwest side residential community area of Chicago.  In the late 19^th century, the area was originally inhabited by European immigrants who worked in the stockyards and surrounding factories.

By the early 20^th century, it became home to many wealthy businessmen as well as  labored middle class people. Famed author, Stuart Dybek hailed form Pilsen .

Development adjacent to Pilsen grew with the restoration of National Historic Register properties such as the 800+ unit South Water Market. That development spilled into Pilsen with Union Row Townhomes  and others and 18^th Street is an active commercial corridor. The east side of Pilsen along Halsted has one of Chicago’s largest art districts.
