What This Condo Offers
Come see this west facing, junior 1 bed concrete loft in University Station with nice upgrades! There is a full-sized kitchen with full-sized stainless steel... appliances including a dishwasher, range, refrigerator and microwave, 1.25" granite counter tops, under mount sink, and a breakfast bar.

The 60 bus to the Loop is one block away and close to I-55, 90, 290, Rush, UIC, Taylor St., Pilsen, Greek Town, West Loop, and lots of shopping on Roosevelt.
