​

Greektown Chicago is a social and dining district, located on the Near West Side of the United States' city of Chicago, Illinois. Today, Greektown consists mostly of restaurants, cafes and businesses. 

The prominent cultural site within the Greektown precinct is the National Hellenic Museum, situated on 333 South Halsted street.

​

The original Greektown district on Halsted Street began with the Jane Addams Hull House, which acted as a meeting point for the Greek population within Chicago and provided a basis for community to be built from 1889. This house was used as a hub for the Greek community, and saw further small business expand within this area.

 

The Greektown Chicago district can be found along Halsted Street, between Van Buren and Madison Streets.

​

Greektown is easily accessible via public transportation by riding the Chicago "L"'s Blue Line to the UIC-Halsted station and head north from the station. One can also ride the Green Line or the Pink Line to the Morgan station. In addition, the neighborhood is accessible via the CTA #8 Halsted bus route.
