About North

Shore

North Shore, located between Evanston and Lake Forest, is a residential and lakeside Chicago neighborhood with leafy ravines and a shoreline park system. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Metra stations and village centers along Green Bay Road, where independent cafes, bookstores, and small galleries line walkable blocks. Writers Theatre and the North Shore Center for the Performing Arts anchor the cultural calendar, while the Chicago Botanic Garden sets a seasonal rhythm just beyond the lakefront. Streets of brick Colonials, Tudors, and mid-century homes sit behind mature trees and stone walls. Lake Michigan beaches and the Green Bay Trail shape daily routines with long, linear outdoor corridors. Commuter rail and lakefront drives connect the area to downtown without changing its quiet, curated pace.

Single-Family Residential District

The requirements set forth in this chapter, together with other provisions set forth in the Building Code of the Village, have been adopted in order to provide for a single-family residential environment of moderately intense suburban character, where the degree of improvements upon an individual parcel of land is generally subordinate to the landscape. Due to the mature character of development within this district, such requirements are also intended to assure that future modifications to existing structures, or the replacement of existing structures with new structures, will not alter the scale and general character of established neighborhoods. In this regard, the requirements set forth in this chapter are further intended to foster development which is compatible, in general, with the character of existing single-family development within the immediate neighborhood with respect to external architectural scale, landscaping and other site improvements.
