I’ve yet to meet anyone who uses “Holstein Park” as a neighborhood name, but when we interviewed Realtor Elizabeth Mallon for a New Homes article last year, she suggested the pocket in northern Bucktown bounded by Leavitt Street and Dickens, Belden, and Claremont avenues had a look and feel all its own.
On Sunday evening I drove over to the actual Holstein Park, a charming park with a well-kept softball field, a clean pool, new playground equipment, and a century-old fieldhouse, and took a stroll around the surrounding streets. The housing options in this part of Bucktown seem par for the course — a mix of old three-flats and new infill condos and single-family homes — but the park itself, as well as the neighboring Senior Citizens Memorial Playlot, are certainly worthwhile amenities for anyone living nearby.

I have clients who live in the area (either have bought, or currently renters in the area). One of my buyer clients lives across the street. That park is totally packed with kids, moms and nannies in the late afternoons etc… Weekend mornings too with the whole family. You probably hit it at it’s slowest time.
