South Loop’s invigorating blend of business and pleasure attracts a wide range of residents who love to stay active and participate in a fast-paced, modern lifestyle. Located just south of central downtown, South Loop encapsulates most of the Grant Park area and borders the shore of Lake Michigan. Many locals are able to walk to work, and the exceptional access to public transportation makes it easy to get anywhere in the city.

This area’s diverse population includes students, musicians, politicians, artists, and professionals of many industries. A superb selection of world-class restaurants draws foodies from across the city, and the local nightlife incorporates everything from music venues to dive bars to swanky nightclubs. The famous museums of the neighborhood cater to more academic tastes, and the waterfront parks offer lush environments to relax and enjoy gorgeous views of the lake. With Soldier Field right next door, it’s the perfect location for Bears fans.
