Montclare is one of 77 officially designated Chicago community areas located on the Northwest Side of the City of Chicago, Illinois.

History

William Sayre bought the land that would become Montclare at a Jefferson Township land sale. The 1870s brought the railroad and a housing development. The developers named the area Montclare, after Montclair, New Jersey. In 1889, the area was annexed into Chicago with the rest of Jefferson Township.[1] At the time of annexation, the rural, agricultural area had fourteen houses and 120 residents.[2] In 1912, the Grand Avenue streetcar was extended to the area and Tudor houses were built in response.[1] The area continued to be relatively undeveloped during this period.[2]

During the latter half of the twentieth century, the area saw an increase in brick bungalows and residents attracted by the suburban character of the area.[3]

Geography

The area is bordered by Harlem Avenue on the west, Belmont Avenue on the north and railroad tracks to both the south and east.[1] These railroad tracks include those that service the area via the Milwaukee District/West Line at Mont Clare station.

Consistent with the area’s history[1][2] the majority of land use in the area is single family residential and transportation with acreage of 250 acres and 193 acres respectively. Other land uses include 63 acres of multi family residential, 55 acres of commercial development, 6 acres of mixed use development, 19 acres of industrial development, 29 acres of institutional development and 11 acres of open space.[1]
