The 14th Ward is one of the 50 aldermanic wards with representation in the City Council of Chicago, Illinois.

History The ward was created on in 1863, when the number of wards in the city increased from ten to sixteen. In its initial map, its boundary lines were defined by North Avenue at the north, Lake Michigan at the east, Division Street at the south, and the North Branch of the Chicago River at the east.
