The pergola is often the largest element on your rooftop deck, so it will be responsible for a hefty portion of the first impression from your friends and family. Make it impressive.
A JLV pergola is made of steel and specially suited for Chicago’s weather and climate. We anchor it to your deck or patio then add your space’s other elements like outdoor kitchen, landscaping, or fire pit.
Some options to consider are whether you want a louvered or fixed roof as well as where lighting will be situated around it. Start dreaming, and when you’re ready to put it all together, give us a call.
More About Irving Park, Chicago
The Irving Park neighborhood, named after author Washington Irving, started in 1843 when Major Noble purchased land and established a farm. After many years of success, he sold the farm to four men from New York who planned to expand it after purchasing 80 additional acres immediately to the south. The men intended to continue farming, but ultimately decided to divide the land and create a settlement after observing the success of other suburban communities. They created their settlement seven miles from the city.
They negotiated a stop with Chicago and Northwestern Railroad after agreeing to build a train station. The train station is still at the same location and serves Irving Park residents today. Originally, they wanted to name the suburb Irvington, but changed the name after discovering there was already another town in Illinois with the same name. Thus, the settlement became known as Irving Park.
