A CLOSER LOOK
The square is only the beginning.
The monument and boulevards make a memorable center. Beyond them, Milwaukee Avenue, residential blocks, parks, and smaller commercial streets offer different daily routines.
Walk the route from a home at the time of day you would actually use it. A listing label cannot tell you how that block fits your life.
