About Avondale
Avondale became part of Chicago when the city annexed the Town of Jefferson in 1889. Factories that sprang up by the railroads attracted its initial wave of immigrants. This quiet blue collar neighborhood lately has a vibrant commercial and residential composition of rising real estate prices including frame houses, modest brick bungalows, two flats, multi-units and condominiums.
Belmont and Milwaukee Avenues along with the Kennedy Expressway (Interstate 90/Interstate 94) traverse this community on Chicago's Northwest side.
