About The Northalsted Business Alliance
Northalsted Business Alliance is the Chamber of Commerce working to enhance the economic vitality and quality of life for the area through programming, business services, and events that celebrate our LGBTQ+ history, promote tourism and foster a welcoming, safe community for all. Since 1981, the Northalsted Business Alliance has worked collectively to enhance and beautify the district while supporting its LGBTQ+ community.
Through the chamber’s efforts, anyone visiting Northalsted for the first time (or the hundredth!) will immediately see LGBTQ+ pride on display — such as the 35 multi-colored “Boystown” bike racks that the Alliance commissioned and installed in 2020, the 13 first-of-their-kind rainbow crosswalks that it designed and paid for in 2019, its 22 signature rainbow pylons, and the many “Instagrammable” murals and sculptures it has added within the district.
Representing over 100 businesses, the Northalsted neighborhood became the nation’s first recognized LGBTQ enclave in 1997 and in 2019 the 22 rainbow pylons were honored by the city commission as a Chicago Landmark. Northalsted provides programs, services and events that increase investment, security, and opportunity throughout our community.
Northalsted Business Alliance is the sole service provider for SSA #18.
