The Irving Park area northwest of the city has been experiencing redevelopment in recent years. The revitalization is due to the strength of the housing stock, convenience to downtown—near the Kennedy Expressway and rapid transit—and the fact that its neighborhoods are more affordable than those to the east.

The community known as Old Irving Park retains many features of long ago. Quiet side streets and thriving gardens provide a background for Victorian homes on 50-foot wide lots that exist side-by-side with apartment buildings and bungalows. Architecturally significant homes abound, including many fine examples of the Prairie School. In September, The Irving Park Historical Society holds its annual housewalk featuring interior tours of area residences.
