New City / Back of the Yards, located between Pershing Road and 55th Street, is a historic and industrial Chicago neighborhood with brick two-flats and rail-lined corridors. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around 47th Street and Ashland Avenue, where taquerias, corner bakeries, and long-running storefronts sit beside working warehouses. The Union Stock Yard Gate anchors the area’s legacy in the streetscape. Back of the Yards Coffee Co. adds a modern counterpoint in a straightforward, workshop-like setting. Davis Square Park and the broad lawns of Sherman Park frame everyday outdoor time among gridded blocks and freight routes.

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.
