LaSalle Illinois Real Estate

LaSalle, Illinois has its beginning in the mid 1800s when it was necessary to build new homes for the families of the construction workers, first for the I&M Canal and then the rail road workers and coal miners. Like Chicago, (connected 96 miles away by the canal and the railroad), manufactures began to settle in LaSalle. 

Times and needs have changed through the decades. In 1933, the Illinois Waterway was completed and the I&M Canal was closed to navigation. Since this time the canal has been developed for recreation. Shelters and picnic areas were added and the towpath was renovated for hiking and bicycling. Interpretive programs and information centers are located at various locations along the trail.

The area remains a favorite for those who are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city. Today the canal is part of a park where canoeing and other water activities are possible.You will find diverse housing in LaSalle such as average single family homes, apartments, condominiums and townhouses. Also to be found are historic properties and small estates. And in the sister city of Peru you will find beautiful new home developments such as Sycamore Lakes.
