Gold Goast

Get to know the area
Chicago’s Gold Coast got its glow-up after the Great Chicago Fire, when developer Potter Palmer turned the area into a hotspot for the city’s upper crust. These days, it’s where vintage charm meets high-rise glam, with historic brownstones hanging out alongside sleek towers, all set against some of the best Lake Michigan views in the city.
But it’s not just about the pretty buildings. The Gold Coast is a vibe. Stroll through lakefront parks, shop at Oak Street’s designer labels, or grab a table at a restaurant that’s probably booked out for weeks. It’s old-school elegance with a modern twist and still the go-to zone for anyone who knows style when they see it.
