The Gold Coast has long been the jewel of Chicago neighborhoods. The Gold Coast got its start in the late 1800's as the Astor Street District. Today's Gold Coast incorporates this original district and extends beyond it. Its boundaries are now defined as North Avenue and Division Street on the north, Lake Michigan on the east, Chicago Avenue on the south and Clark and Franklin Streets on the west.

The Gold Coast grew in popularity because of Lake Shore Drive . The influx of wealthy families has given the Gold coast reputation of having wealthy families, bringing up the status of the area and giving it a reputation as a neighborhood of influential citizens.

Gold Coast not only consists of high-rise apartment buildings on Lake Shore Drive, facing Lake Michigan, but also includes low-rise residential blocks inland.
