Learn more about what Near East Side has to offer.
Near East Side offers residents a vibrant mix of lakefront access, plentiful parks, walkable streets, and convenient transit, along with diverse dining and cultural options that keep everyday life engaging yet balanced.
Near East Side suits buyers and sellers who want city living with a polished, residential feel. Surrounded by Downtown, Millennium Park, and Loop, it attracts professionals who value walkability, access to lakefront recreation, and a quiet home base close to major employers and transit.
Most housing here is in luxury high-rises with full amenities and lake or skyline views. Buyers can choose from modern condos overlooking Grant Park to newer developments that offer fitness centers, pools, and concierge services. Families and long-term planners often appreciate proximity to Maggie Daley Park, highly regarded schools like GEMS World Academy Chicago, and the protected Lakefront Trail.
Dining and culture are within easy reach. Residents stroll to the Art Institute of Chicago, enjoy seasonal events at Millennium Park, and have quick access to Streeterville and River North for additional restaurants and nightlife. Daily conveniences, from grocery options to transit at nearby Metra and L stops, make car-free living realistic.
Because buildings, amenities, and views can vary dramatically from one block to the next, it is important to work with an agent who understands the specifics of Near East Side.

“In today’s world, when reviewing a product and/or business, Artificial Intelligence tends to be used to get it done in a fast and efficient manner. That would be an absolute disservice to Miriam’s work product and personality. She is genuine. She is responsive. She is intelligent. She is kind. My favorite aspect of Miriam’s work is her past experience working at a property management company. She understands how a building is run, the importance of the building’s budget, and other minor details you would never even think of. She is simply the best, and you should definitely give her the opportunity to help you find your new home!”

“Laura is hard working, dedicated, and responsive. She understood the challenges of a cash-only sale and made things happen that would have been dropped by less motivated realtors. As my listing agent she closed a sale on a property that was very difficult to sell at a sales price that other realtors balked at. She earned every penny of her commission. Hire her! You won’t regret it.”

“Selling our condo was a much smoother experience than I expected, and I truly have Larry to thank for that. From the very beginning, he was knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly professional. Night or Day, weekday or weekend Larry answered the phone and communicated actively any information about the process to us. A true professional. He guided us through every step of the process, answered all of my questions, and always made us feel confident in the decisions we were making. What impressed me most was his negotiation skills. Larry advocated for our best interests every step of the way and worked hard to secure the best possible outcome. We always felt like he had our back and never settled for less than what our home was worth. If you’re looking for an agent who is honest, strategic, communicative, and genuinely invested in their clients, we can’t recommend Larry Lazar highly enough. Selling a home can be stressful, but he made the entire process seamless. We would absolutely work with him again and recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home.”

“Working with Henry and the Heart of Chicago Homes team was an incredible experience from start to finish. Throughout the entire process, I always felt supported, informed, and confident knowing he and the team had our best interests in mind. We were searching in one of the most competitive markets, and the townhome we fell in love with ended up receiving multiple offers. Although our offer wasn’t accepted initially, Henry stayed persistent and maintained consistent communication with the listing agent. Thanks to his dedication and follow-up, he was able to position us next in line and ultimately help us secure our dream home when the first deal fell through. Even though we originally had the second-best offer, his hard work, relationships, and determination made all the difference. We couldn’t be more grateful and would highly recommend Henry and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”

“Paul helped me find my first multifamily investment property house-hack in Chicago. Paul is very easy to work with, responsive and knowledgeable since he is also an investor. He pointed me in the right direction with finding a lender, attorney, and inspector. Paul helped me run the numbers to make sure the deal I am getting into is the right one. We analyzed several properties until we found the right one. Grateful for all your help, Paul.”
