The South Side’s Bungalow Belt

What Gage Park Homes Tend to Need

Gage Park takes its name from the park at Garfield Boulevard and Western Avenue, and its streets are some of the South Side’s most classic Bungalow Belt blocks, with brick bungalows and two-flats from the 1910s through the 1930s.

Today Gage Park is home to a large Latino community, and many two-flats house extended families on both floors.

Bungalows typically converted from boilers to forced air, while two-flats may still share a boiler or have a furnace per unit.

With large households and older equipment, reliable heat, plenty of hot water and safe venting are the main concerns.

Garfield Boulevard, part of the city’s historic boulevard system, runs along the neighborhood’s northern edge, and the blocks closest to it hold some of Gage Park’s largest bungalows and two-flats.

Ask a pro
01

Hot water running out

Large households outgrow standard tanks. A larger tank or a tankless heater sized for flow keeps up.

↗
02

Shared boiler, two households

One boiler for both floors means one failure leaves everyone cold. Yearly service and zoning keep both units comfortable.

↗
03

Bungalow back rooms cold

Long, leaky ducts to the rear of the house lose heat. Sealing them helps.
