Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood on the city's far North Side is one of the most diverse communities in the nation. It is also one of the city's most historic, perhaps best known as the former location of the legendary Edgewater Beach Hotel, a lakefront resort which was open from 1923 to 1967.
There's more information about this fantastic neighborhood on the Edgewater Community Council's website.
