"Near North - the Ritzy Side of Town"
The near north side includes the Gold Coast, Streeterville and River North neighborhoods. It’s definitely the wealthiest, ritziest area of the city. It’s also the most tourist-y. It’s pretty easy to understand why. The buildings are gorgeous. There’s the old apartment/condo buildings all along Lakeshore Drive. There’s the Wrigley Building, Tribune Tower and the old Playboy mansion. A walk around this area is definitely a must.
