This peaceful neighborhood is comprised primarily of post World War II bungalows and two flats dating from the early 1900's. This area caters mostly to working couples and families with a current and growing influx of young professionals. Roscoe Village features a quaint downtown area on Roscoe Avenue from Damen to Western that has a remarkable small town feel, where neighborhood restaurants, bars, boutiques, flower shops and other retail establishments line the street.
On Belmont from Damen to Western is Antique Row, a five block stretch which is known throughout the Midwest as the place to go when seeking antiques. The recent renovation of the defunct Wieboldt's building into condominium lofts together with the Whole Foods supermarket on Ashland Avenue threatens to expand westward the borders of Lakeview. This expansion has dismayed local Roscoe Villagers, who feel that their cozy little neighborhood is no longer a well kept secret.
An apartment (American English), flat (British English) or unit (Australian English) is a self-contained housing unit (a type of residential real estate) that occupies only part of a building, correctly, on a single level without a stair. Such a building may be called an apartment building, apartment complex, flat complex, block of flats, tower block, high-rise or, occasionally mansion block (in British English), especially if it consists of many apartments for rent. In Scotland, it is called a block of flats or, if it is a traditional sandstone building, a tenement, which has a pejorative connotation elsewhere. Apartments may be owned by an owner/occupier, by leasehold tenure or rented by tenants (two types of housing tenure).In some parts of the world, the word apartment refers to a new purpose-built self-contained residential unit in a building, whereas the word flat means a converted self-contained unit in an older building. An industrial, warehouse, or commercial space converted to an apartment is commonly called a loft, although some modern lofts are built by design. An apartment consisting of the top floor of a high-rise apartment building can be called a penthouse.Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/
