In September 2009, we chattered about the price cuts at the new construction high rise 757 N. Orleans in River North.
See our September 2009 chatter here.
A year later, there are still units for sale from the developer and an advertisement in the Sunday Tribune which says “dive in…to river north’s best financing.”
But what happens to […]
We first chattered about this huge 2-bedroom unit at 60 W. Erie in River North in March 2008.
See our March 2008 chatter here.
Back in 2008, the listing said the overseas owner wanted out.
The unit has been on and off the market since then but apparently, according to the listing, the overseas owner still wants out.
It has also been […]
This 2-bedroom unit in the Lucien LaGrange designed high rise at 653 N. Kingsbury in River North has been on and off the market since January 2010.
It is currently listed as a short sale and is priced $67,000 under the 2003 purchase price.
The Northeast corner unit has floor to ceiling windows and a balcony but carpet […]
We last chattered about this full-floor brick and timber loft at 208 W. Kinzie in River North in October 2009.
See our prior chatter here.
It is still available and has now been reduced $124,000.
If you want to know what many lofts in River North looked like before developers got ahold of them, then this loft is […]
This 2-bedroom duplex penthouse unit in the highrise at 435 W. Erie in River North is true city living.
With a wraparound terrace and southeast facing views, you can watch the entire city skyline twinkle all evening long (check out the outstanding night pictures taken by the Jennifer Ames’ team on the link below.)
The living/dining room has two story ceilings. […]
We’ve chattered about this 2007 construction mid-rise at 845 N. Kingsbury, the Village Pointe, in River North several times before when flippers were attempting to flip in the building.
Now, one of the units actually ON the “Pointe” is on the market.
At 1700 square feet, it is among the largest units in the building.
The unit has two […]
This 2-bedroom in The Pinnacle at 21 E. Huron would appear to be like every other luxury 2-bedroom in River North.
Only the listing for this unit says that “close to a million dollars was spent to turn this unit into a one of a kind designer home.”
Where did the money go?
It has a Poggenpohl custom […]
The last time we chattered about the apartment-to-condo conversion high rise at 400 N. LaSalle in River North it was January 2008.
See our January 2008 chatter and pictures here.
Back then, some of the units were under distress.
Since then, the developer tried to sell the remaining units. If you read the Tribune, they had a prominent ad in […]
This 2-bedroom penthouse floor unit at Chicago Place, at 100 E. Huron in River North, has more square footage than some of the newer 3-bedroom units downtown.
At 1657 square feet, developers clearly built heftier condos in 1991, when the building was constructed.
The unit was recently reduced and is now listed for $96,000 under the 2004 purchase price.
The […]
We’ve chattered about the distress sales in 10 E. Ontario in River North numerous times over the past few years.
Even I can’t keep up with the pace of the foreclosures in that building (and also the sales.)
This 1-bedroom bank owned unit recently came on the market on the 33rd floor.
It has carpet and the white […]
