- Take a dji drone ride through Chicago's Wicker Park with real Wicker Park sounds added with the video. Fly high above Wicker Park and down along Milwaukee Avenue that runs smack in the middle of Wicker Park. You'll also see Bucktown and Logan Square from high above as clouds and light rain is in the area. Downtown Chicago looked cool as low level clouds can be seen obscuring some of the skyline.
Check out the huge, eye-catching ConAgra mural in Bucktown.
The Wicker Park Historic District is on the National Register of Historic Places listing in Chicago. Much of Wicker Park was also designated as a Chicago Landmark District.
Be safe and enjoy!
Wicker Park is a neighborhood of about 26,000 residents within the West Town community area in Chicago, Illinois. Situated just west of the Kennedy Expressway, Wicker Park is known for its local hipster culture, art community, nightlife, and food scene.

CHICAGO/ THE WINDY CITY/ CHI-TOWN
Located on the shores of freshwater Lake Michigan, Chicago was incorporated as a city in 1837 near a portage between the Great Lakes and the Mississippi River watershed and grew rapidly in the mid-19th century. After the Chicago Fire of 1871, which left more than 100,000 homeless, the city made a concerted effort to rebuild. The construction boom accelerated population growth throughout the following decades, and by 1900 Chicago was the fifth-largest city in the world. Chicago made noted contributions to urban planning and zoning standards, including new construction styles (including the Chicago School of architecture), the development of the City Beautiful Movement, and the steel-framed skyscraper.
Chicago is an international hub for finance, culture, commerce, industry, technology, telecommunications, and transportation. It is the site of the creation of the first standardized futures contracts at the Chicago Board of Trade, which today is the largest and most diverse derivatives market globally, generating 20% of all volume in commodities and financial futures. O'Hare International Airport is one of the busiest airports in the world, and the region also has the largest number of U.S. highways and the greatest amount of railroad freight. In 2012, Chicago was listed as an alpha global city by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network, and it ranked seventh in the entire world in the 2017 Global Cities Index. The Chicago area has one of the highest gross domestic products (GDP) in the world, generating $680 billion in 2017. In addition, the city has one of the world's most diversified and balanced economies, not being dependent on anyone industry, with no single industry employing more than 14% of the workforce.

Im born & raised in NYC but I've been in love with Chicago ever since i was a kid. I wanna move my family out there but none of them wants to leave NYC but im sick of it!!! Im a Bear's, Cub's, Blackhawk's, White Sox fan & Chicago just has a certain essence to it from the architecture to the neighborhoods. I can't wait to take my family on a vacation there so they can fall in love with it like I did...
Update
Still here in NYC. 🗽🤷🏽♂️
@@hbc586I love NYC but to visit only I couldn't live there and so if you really want to live in Chicago just try it. I still love Chicago living here. I know it's a scary thing to move but you only live once besides you can always move back
Id recommend against moving to Chicago. Unless its to the suburbs. But even then, the weather in Illinois is very bleak and dreary for most of the year. I'm also from New York, currently in the Chicagoland area for school. The weather in NYC is far better. Winters in NYC are actually beautiful with a lot of sunlight. Chicago is gray for half the year.
Chicago is cool and all, but man this city has really turned to shit lately. Crime is out of control, there are a million robberies, carjackings and other violent crimes daily. The homeless population is skyrocketing, they are bussing illegal immigrants in etc. There are groups of black kids causing problems downtown, stores are getting looted downtown on Michigan Ave. I'd say spend your money elsewhere. I lived Lakeview, Bucktown, Lincoln park for 16 years but glad i left. It's out of control.
Drones are really changing the way we view the world. Beautiful and soothing look at Wicker Park.
WOW thank you for sharing this! It brought me back to when I used to live in Logan Square 11 years ago. I really miss Chicago ❤
Chicago! Citta Bedda! Forza Chicago! Proud Chicagoan-Italian! 🇮🇹💪🏻
I love Wicker Park.
Thanks for focusing on the grandeur of the neighborhoods, not just downtown. There are so many other neighborhoods in the city that should be given this chance to shine. 🙏
Thank you for the video. I used to live near there for 10 years before moving to a different state.
thanks for this amazing footage of my hometown!
having chills watching this, I was walking out and about in the area here around the same time it was recorded! don’t know if I’ve found myself yet however…
Nice 🙂,I love Chicago,thanks 😊
Amazing footage of Chicago.
I'm glad Wicker Park was revitalized while at the same time, dismayed that the gentrification has excluded many of the Hispanic families that lived there. I'm sure they see it as exclusivity for "whites only" which is still indicative Chicago's segregated history. It goes to show you that when a solution is needed, one can be found immediately for one privileged group of people. It actually a form of discrimination repackaged under the guise of 'urban renewal'. The more thing change; the more they stay the same.
@@phillipgrey I totally agree with you, gentrification has been going on all over the country taxing people out of their properties. It would be nice if the government would remove all of the redlining laws. I feel that alone would do great improvements to many areas in this country.
Keep them coming. I would give anything well almost anything to live in Chicago.
"Almost" is alot to give. Chicago is great city and alot of people who love to be back even for a vacation.
@@chicago4k542 what about los angeles or houston
@@GSM92 I never been to Houston. I'm sure Houston is a beautiful city. I've been to
to LA though when I was a little kid back in the late early 80's. I always watched the CHIPS show and when I visited LA I was excited and thought every time I seen a CHP(California Highway Patrol) on a motorbike it would be JON or PONCH. Thought it was pretty cool!
@@GSM92 Los Angeles has earthquakes and Houston has tropical storms. Overall, Houston is a boring city. Chicago has no natural disasters.
@@GSM92 Houston and LA are both too big for their own good. they're cool cities but you can't do much of anything without a car. Chicago is a great city for public transport, walkability, bikeability, etc.
😍😍😍
Amazing video once again. Milwaukee Ave's infill has been hugely transformational from the perspective of building a cohesive streetwall and erasing many urban renewal scars. I wish that we would erase our restrictive zoning and allow for mid and high-rise density to reshape our built environment. Wicker Park should have well over 100,000 residents but the stagnation is representative of our single-family zoning and practice of deconversions. These remaining underutilized and suburban lots need tall/dense development to increase the scale of our built environment which would add population, increase vibrancy and allow for more inclusion. Nimby's successfully killed two separate high-rise proposals last development cycle at Polish Triangle and have kept the scale of development along the 606 in check. Complaining aside, you captured the neighborhood brilliantly and provided stunning visuals.
Don’t you mean West Town? Wicker Park is tiny. It’s only a small part of the West Town Community Area. West Town as a whole could definitely be more vibrant, I agree. It’s still super fun though!
@@ArtistsCry13 Well I'm sort of combining Bucktown and Wicker Park together for the area I'm describing that should have 100,000 people or more. If we had NY population densities that number isn't astronomical. I would say Lincoln Park as well should have atleast double its population. We discourage that type of density though and keep our neighborhoods stagnant. We shouldn't even have single family housing within a certain radius of the core in my opinion.
