Real estate in Lincoln Square is a great mix of single family homes, apartments from many years ago, and rehabilitated condos. Those single family homes occupy many corners of tree-lined side streets, where their charming wrap-around porches and gardens "wow" those who walk by. Brick apartment buildings house units with original hardwood flooring and classic finishes, along with two and three-flats... some new, and some old. You'll also find plenty of condos mixed in, and a sprinkling of new construction homes.
