In November 2008, Joe Askins of YoChicago.com and NewHomeNotebook.com took a stroll through the eastern half of Uptown (basically the area bounded by Lake Michigan, Irving Park Road, Foster Avenue and the Red Line elevated tracks) in search of new-constructon condominiums and gut rehabs.
My goodness how times have changed!!!!! Our first apartment was on Winthrop back in 1970-72....it used to be a lower middle class neighborhood back then, I would have never imagined that they would turn those old apartment buildings into expensive condos.
