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.

RS-3
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 - RS3 - which are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements and floor area ratios.
