Chicago-Dempster Merchant Association

 
 

Thank you for supporting your local small businesses!


Friendly, personalized service is a priority for our merchants, from one-of-a-kind specialty shops to nationally known businesses. Best of all, you can do all your shopping in one stop. Our merchants are all conveniently located within a two-block radius. Just park your car or hop off the bus or train and stroll down our tree-lined sidewalks.


For more on our charming, historic shopping district, browse through this site. You’ll find descriptions of each merchant, as well as links to those businesses that have their own Web sites. Individual store hours can be found on their websites or by phone. Also be sure to check our calendar of special events.
