History 
The German, Polish, and Ukrainian immigrants came to the northwestern area of the Chicago

They also brought their culture and traditions with them. 
 of the district was rebuilt after the Great Fire by William D. Kerfoot. By 1910 almost all of 
his buildings were finished 
There are 2 Ukrainian banks that people can use for their financial services. There are a lot of 
grocery stores and stores that sell different products like books, clothes, and shoes. 
The area was officially declared the Ukrainian Village by Chicago mayor Jane Byrne in January 
18,1983. 
During the 1980s, more immigrants came to the Ukrainian Village area. This caused young 
people come to the area. Before that Ukrainian Village was known, it was a place where mostly 
senior people lived. 
Today 10,000 of Ukrainians and people of Ukrainian descend live in the Ukrainian Village. 
People of other ethnical groups are living in this area and now it is even more interesting to 
visit the Ukrainian Village neighborhood. It is a very good place for tourist and for people who 
want to spend their day discovering something new.

Reflections 
Yesenia: It was a very fun 
experience. We were able to explore a 
town that weve never been to, and 
also helped to get to know each other 
better. Unfortunately, we all had busy 
schedules, and the only times we could 
meet were in the afternoon. It was all 
worth it in the end because we got 
food from a small place called, Village 
Pizza. It sold pizza by the slice, and it 
was huge! We could hardly finish it! 
Gabby: I thought that it was a 
very unique and interesting little 
town. I also think I wouldve 
enjoyed it more during the day 
because everything was closed by 
the time we were able to go. 
Overall, I would definately go back 
so that I could look at more shops 
and go to the museum.
Reflections 
Mairead:I really enjoyed our adventure through 
Ukrainian Village! I have been curious about the 
neighborhoods in Chicago and had never heard of 
Ukrainian Village before. I liked the young atmosphere 
and can tell the residential area is growing. The pizza 
we ate was delicious but in the future, I would like to 
explore some of the coffee shops we saw in Ukrainian 
Village like the Dark Matter Cafe. 
Mane: I really enjoyed visiting 
Ukrainian village. Moreover, I would love 
to live in that neighborhood for three 
main reasons. Firstly, it is very beautiful 
and clean. Secondly, there are many 
attractive houses. Finally, Ukrainian 
village is very close to downtown, which I 
think is convenient, as people have access 
to everything within a few minutes.
