    "NP provides tree-lined streets and a small-town aura with a Chicago address. Living in NP may be characterized as living in a bucolic milieu nestled in an urban area, enjoying the conveniences of the city, and avoiding most of the ills that plague other city neighborhoods."
  • Echo
    "The area itself is fine but you will be right on Higgins rd., which is a very busy street, also a corridor for the emergency vehicles at the hospital nearby plus you get to hear the rumbling noise coming from the Blue line trains every 5 to 10 minutes. If that is not enough, the Kennedy expressway is just 100 feet away with no sound barrier! "
