The Cta
It’s the easiest way to get around. Take out your U-Pass transit card and hop on any of the 8 different train lines and more than 200 bus routes. We’re only 4 blocks from the ‘L’ train to downtown.

Tre Kronor, a North Park fixture for decades, offers the type of Swedish cuisine favored by North Park’s founders. It also offers outdoor seating in its tranquil garden.
