What This Condo Offers

Property Id: 1457290

This brand-new luxury apartment complex added 202 apartments near the Illinois Medical District in 2021. Taking up an entire wedge-shaped...
city block, this unique 7-story property is also adjacent to three cool neighborhoods in Chicago’s Lower West Side -- Pilsen, Little Italy and UIC’s University Village.

These apartments are high on stylish details with industrial-chic light fixtures, polished concrete floors and sky-high ceilings. Each unit includes stainless steel appliances, a gas range stove, an in-unit washer and dryer, a bold tile backsplash, and sleek bathroom with glass-enclosed rain shower. Select apartments also feature balconies, walk-in closets and kitchen islands.

The amenity space is more than the icing on the cake. You’ve got 8,500-square-feet built for relaxation and recreation with a fitness center, beautiful spacious lounge, and an outdoor rooftop pool deck with gas grilling stations and alfresco dining area.

This is a convenient location for folks working in the Medical District, Loop, South Loop, or needing to commute regionally. There is plenty to explore with diverse restaurants, culture and several parks surrounding the area. Stock up on essentials at nearby big box stores on Roosevelt Road, or make new friends shopping at convenient neighborhood bodegas.

Cats and dogs are allowed, and the sprawling Addams/Medill Park is just a couple of blocks away where you and your pup can get plenty of exercise.

There is a Loop Link bus stop right on the corner that will take you downtown, and also has a stop within a block of the Racine CTA Blue Line Station. The Halsted Street Metra Station is also nearby for folks commuting to the western suburbs. If you own a car, on-site garage parking is available with additional fees, and there is a complimentary bike storage room too.
