The Best Block in Chicago is the 1900 N block of Fremont StreetGo ahead—prove me wrong. I’ve worked in Chicago real estate for almost twenty years, and the best residential street in entire city is the 1900 block of North Fremont.First: location. You’re just off of Armitage—steps from boutique shops, cafés, and the Brown Line—one of the most desirable pockets in Lincoln Park.The block is almost entirely single-family homes, all well kept. No oddball eyesores—everything fits the streetscape.The architecture is the showstopper: beautifully preserved Italianate, Greystones, and workers’ cottages alongside thoughtfully built newer homes—including a few even built on 4 city lots.Unlike the mega-mansion stretches on Burling or Orchard, Fremont feels like a true neighborhood with a mature tree canopy, neighbors walking their dogs, kids on scooters, and everyone says hello.Homes don’t hit the market often, but when they do, standard-lot properties typically trade in the $2.5–$5 million range.And bonus: it’s one of the best blocks in the city for Halloween trick-or-treating.That’s my pick—1900 North Fremont.#chicagorealestate#lincolnparkchicago#chicagorealestateagent#chicagoluxuryhomes
