This residential neighborhood centers on the 36-acre Portage Park at Irving Park Road and Central Avenue, a popular gathering place with an indoor pool, tennis courts, athletic fields and a large field house. The major shopping district is the longstanding but still thriving Six Corners at Milwaukee and Cicero avenues and Irving Park Road. You can see classic movies at the renovated 1920’s-era Portage Theater on Milwaukee Avenue, just north of the Six Corners intersection.
