Southport Corridor is known for its dining scene
Southport Corridor is named for the stretch of restaurants and shops along Southport Avenue. You’ll live within walking distance of local eateries, boutiques and shopping centers with well-known chains. The neighborhood is also still close to games and concerts at Wrigley Field, and local theaters and music venues also add to the music scene. Still, Southport Corridor isn’t crawling with tourists the way Wrigleyville and Lakeview East are. The residential streets are home to more longtime residents and fewer rentals, making it feel more like a neighborhood than other parts of Lakeview.
Southport Corridor is known for its ample shopping, access to transit, and restaurant scene.
Southport Corridor has a local vibe that is less touristy than it's neighboring areas.
1/2
Southport Avenue is the place to go for local businesses
“It’s a mix of one-off boutiques local to Chicago and chains,” says broker Juliana Yeager with Christie’s International Real Estate and longtime Lakeview resident. “There’s J. Crew and Abercrombie, but then you’re going to get cute little boutiques like Alice and Wonder.” Some favorite local restaurants include:
Little Goat Diner, for brunch and a cozy atmosphere
Tuco and Blondie, for Tex-Mex and a comfy outdoor patio
Crosby's Kitchen, for Midwestern comfort food, like cornbread skillets
Coda di Volpe, for Southern Italian and an intimate environment
“Of course, we have a Starbucks in there, too,” Yeager says. Shopping centers along Southport and throughout the neighborhood also offer grocery stores like Jewel-Osco and Walmart Supercenter, also located within walking distance.
For a family brunch, residents enjoy Crosby's Kitchen's comfort food and tasty cocktails.
Alice & Wonder is a boutique shop specializing in contemporary women's apparel and home accents.

Historic and comtemporary homes with rooftop decks
Historic Victorians and brownstones line the streets in Southport Corridor, though there’s a contemporary model in there every now and then. “It’s much more residential than other neighborhoods. All the streets are single families with a sprinkle of condos,” Yeager says about the western side of the neighborhood. “There’s hardly any rentals anymore because everything’s getting scooped up by developers.” Condos are still common here, housed in brick low- and mid-rise buildings situated closer to Southport Avenue. Some two- and three-flats are available, though less common. Most single-family homes and condo complexes have rooftop decks or balconies.
Mid-rise condos sit above shops in Southport Corridor.
Contemporary homes make the occasional appearnce between Southport Corridor's hisotric builds.

Southport Corridor is as affordable as nearby neighborhoods
Southport Corridor’s affordability is on par with nearby communities. The neighborhood’s median housing price is about $760,000, which is about $10,000 more than Lakeview and $50,000 more than Roscoe Village. The low- and mid-rise condo complexes range from the upper $200,000s to the upper $300,000s, though the rare contemporary two-flats can be as much as the low $600,000s. Single-family homes typically range from $1 million to $2.2 million. The benefit of choosing Southport Corridor over Lakeview is the same access to the restaurants and shops along Southport Avenue, but a slightly quieter vibe brought by distance from Wrigleyville and Lincoln Park.
Walking to Wrigleyville or other local venues
The proximity to Wrigley Field is a big plus, so you can avoid game-day traffic and walk to Cubs games. “You can hear the concerts in a lot of the houses in Southport, and that’s a big selling point over there,” Yeager says. “They have these rooftop decks, and you can have listening parties.” Other entertainment venues in and around Southport Corridor include:
Schubas Tavern, a small music venue supporting indie musicians
Athenaeum Center for Thought and Culture, a historic theater showing plays, musicals and dance performances
Music Box Theater, a historic movie theater specializing in indie, international and silent films
More venues are also located nearby in Lakeview and Lakeview East.
Wrigley Field pays homage to important players with gorgeous statues near Southport Corridor.
The historic Music Box Theatre debuts a fresh rotation of shows at its iconic Southport location.

Top-rated public schools located within walking distance
Southport Corridor is part of Chicago Public Schools, a school choice district with several top-rated public schools located within the neighborhood. Blaine Elementary School and Hamilton Elementary School are both K-8 fine arts magnets. Burley Elementary School is another public magnet that instead focuses on literature, writing and technology.
Burley Elementary School is the go to choice for Southport Corridor kids.
Hamilton Elementary School scores an A- on Niche.com.

Southport Corridor's walkability and accessibility
Sidewalks and nearby amenities like restaurants, grocery stores, schools and entertainment venues mean you don’t need a car when getting around Southport Corridor. Lincoln, Belmont and Southport avenues all have bike lanes, and there are also Divvy bike share stations throughout the neighborhood. Buses along Belmont and Addison are another option. The one thing Southport Corridor residents might not be able to walk to is Lincoln Park and Lake Michigan, located about 2 miles away, when other Lakeview neighborhoods are closer and more accessible.
Commuter options in Southport Corridor
Commuters have some options in Southport Corridor, but not as many as other Lakeview neighborhoods. The Brown Line makes several stops in the neighborhood, and heads to The Loop, taking about 40 minutes. Additional L options like the Purple and Red lines are next door in Lakeview. Cars can get downtown in about 20 minutes, but Southport Corridor is also farther from Lake Shore Drive, a major highway and commuter route on this side of Chicago.
Residents can take the L at Southport station to be downtown in 40 minutes.
The L trains Brown Line runs through Southport Corridor and connects to the rest of Chicago.
