A look at Division Street, from Wicker Park to Humboldt Park

Division Street from Ashland Ave almost to Western Ave – a stretch that divides Wicker Park from East Village and Ukrainian Village – is one of the most vibrant, attractive, pedestrian-friendly strips in Chicago. The vitality of Division Street comes to an almost complete halt just east of Western Ave at the border of Humboldt Park.

Division’s broad sidewalks host a wide array of sidewalk cafes, restaurants, bars, nightlife, boutiques and neighborhood service establishments.

Join me for a look at this part of Division Street, and at a new 11-story apartment building that’s nearing completion at the corner of Division and Ashland.
