Located eight miles south of downtown Chicago, the Woodlawn neighborhood is a community on the rise. Low rents and newer construction have made the area increasingly popular. Picturesque Washington Park is located just a few blocks north with year-round programs and recreational activities for all ages. The park provides the surrounding communities with walking trails, a swimming pool, fitness center, tennis courts, a playground and plenty more attractions. The University of Chicago, hospitals, museums, and Hyde Park with numerous restaurants and shopping, public transportation and entertainment, are all located within easy reach of Boxelder Court.
