Little Italy, located between the University of Illinois Chicago campus and the West Loop, is a historic and walkable Chicago neighborhood with classic brick flats and a restaurant-lined main drag. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Taylor Street near Racine Avenue, where old-school Italian eateries, espresso counters, and corner bakeries keep the sidewalks busy. Community pillars include the National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame, the Italian American Museum of Chicago, and Rosebud on Taylor. Tree-lined blocks mix greystones, two-flats, and newer mid-rises, giving the streetscape a layered look. Arrigo Park and the surrounding courts add a daily rhythm of pick-up games and festivals. CTA Blue Line access at UIC-Halsted links the area to downtown and O’Hare.

RT-4
Residential Two-Flat, Townhouse and Multi-Unit District
The primary purpose of the RT districts is to accommodate detached houses, two-flats, townhouses and low-density, multi-unit residential buildings at a density and building scale that is compatible with RS districts. The districts are intended to be applied in areas characterized by a mix of housing types. The districts are also intended to provide a gradual transition between RS districts and higher density RM districts. The RT districts are differentiated primarily on the basis of allowed density (minimum lot area per unit) and floor area ratios.
