Archer Heights, located between Midway Airport and the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal, is a residential and industrial Chicago neighborhood with brick bungalows and rail-lined commercial corridors. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Archer Avenue near Pulaski Road, where taquerias, bakeries, auto shops, and small storefronts keep the street in motion. Brick two-flats and tidy postwar homes set a steady streetscape behind the main drags. Kelly Park reads as the local green anchor, with field space and a park-fieldhouse rhythm. The area’s geography follows diagonals and freight routes, giving everyday errands a distinctly working-corridor feel.

RS-2
Residential Single-Unit (Detached House) District
The primary purpose of the RS districts is to accommodate the development of detached houses on individual lots. It is intended that RS zoning be applied in areas where the land-use pattern is characterized predominately by detached houses on individual lots or where such a land use pattern is desired in the future. The Zoning Ordinance includes three RS districts - RS2 - which are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements and floor area ratios.
