Chicago Gold Coast - Chicago IL Walking Tour

Preview: Tucked comfortably between the Magnificent Mile and Lincoln Park on Chicago’s Near North Side is the stately Gold Coast. Some of Chicago’s most desirable —and expensive—real estate and most historic architecture can be found in the stately neighborhoods of State Parkway, Lake Shore Drive, and Astor Street. Truly the silk-stocking district of Chicago, the Gold Coast neighborhood remains intimate and exclusive to this day. Special attractions: Historic homes and structures, park areas, unique architecture, and elegant urban landscapes.
