Broadway Edge / Infill Zone

The eastern edge of Platt Park along Broadway — where the neighborhood's bungalow character gives way to a more eclectic mix of original homes, scrape-and-rebuild projects, modern duplexes, and infill townhomes. Broadway itself is a busy commercial arterial with Antique Row, restaurants, breweries, and service retail. Homes on the blocks immediately west of Broadway are a generation-spanning mix: unrenovated 1930s bungalows sit next to three-story modern townhomes with rooftop decks and clean-line architecture. The wide price range reflects this variety — a vintage bungalow needing work can list in the mid-$500Ks while a new-build townhome pushes toward $900K. This zone appeals to buyers who want Platt Park's address and school access at a lower entry point, or who prefer contemporary construction over vintage character. Transit access is the best in the neighborhood, with frequent Route 0 bus service on Broadway and the Evans light rail station nearby.
