The neighborhood around
West Irving Park Road and North Ravenswood maintains a cool city grit due to the remaining industrial buildings mixed in with residential buildings and store fronts.
Irving Park Road condo sales (Clark Street to Western Avenue)
33 condo units (attached homes including town house) have closed over the last 12 months along Irving Park Road. The sales are fairly mixed among vintage converted buildings and newer construction.
The median price of a condo along this stretch is a hefty $424,000. The high unit prices sold reflect new construction and the relatively larger vintage options available along Irving Park Road at the price.

Buyers and builders look for cheaper alternatives in good locations when the real estate market gets hot.
The busy four lane stretch of West Irving Park Road (from North Clark Street on the east to North Western Avenue on the west) has seen spurts of new residential development in the past 15 years. Builders and buyers can buy at a bit of a discount for the noisy street but benefit from the many transit and business options.
