All the perks of downtown living with access to museums, attractions, and more
As its name suggests, South Loop is located just below the Loop on the city’s south side. Here, residents range from working professionals to couples and families. The neighborhood is a mix of high-rise apartments, condos, and converted historic buildings.
The area is great for anyone who wants that vibrant downtown feel, yet slightly more relaxed. Museum Campus is located here, where Adler Planetarium, Shedd Aquarium, and the Field Museum are set against a backdrop of the city and beautiful Lake Michigan.
South Loop is also home to many jazz, blues, and music venues, including Buddy Guy’s Legends. Historic districts like Motor Row, Printers Row, and Millionaire’s Row on Prairie Avenue are also located here.
