Portage Park, located between Irving Park Road and Belmont Avenue, is a residential and commercial Chicago neighborhood with a grand namesake park and a classic bungalow streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates at Irving Park Road and Central Avenue, where taquerias, old-school bakeries, and corner taverns sit beside everyday storefronts. Brick Chicago bungalows and two-flats line calm blocks, while wider arterials carry steady city motion. Portage Park’s fieldhouse, pool, and broad lawns set the outdoor rhythm in warm months. Community pillars include the Patio Theater’s marquee, Community Tavern’s dining room, and the Six Corners Shops corridor’s long-running retail strip.

The primary purpose of the B3, Community Shopping district is to accommodate a very broad range of retail and service uses, often in the physical form of shopping centers or larger buildings than found in the B1 and B2 districts. In addition to accommodating development with a different physical form than found in B1 and B2 districts, the B3 district is also intended to accommodate some types of uses that are not allowed in B1 and B2 districts. Development in B3 districts will generally be destination-oriented, with a large Percentage of customers arriving by automobile. Therefore, the supply of off-street parking will tend to be higher in B3 districts than in B1 and B2 districts. The B3 district permits residential dwelling units above the ground floor. The B3 district is intended to be applied to large sites that have primary access to major streets.
