“Rich in Hispanic heritage, part of Pilsen will be a state historical landmark district. Pilsen, located on the city’s South Side, is one of Chicago’s oldest neighborhoods.

Fifteen properties in Illinois were listed in the national register of historic places in February by the National Park Services. The designation places them on the nation’s most prestigious list of places with historical significance. The Pilsen district, often called the Heart of Chicago, is the largest area designated in the U.S. in terms of the number of eligible buildings.”
