We last chattered about 2625 N. Clark in Lincoln Park in March 2008 when there was a bunch of short sales going on in the building.
Built in 1983, the 133-unit apartment building was converted into condos in 2005.
Unit #1504 was available in a possible short sale in March (the listing called it an “investors dream”) […]
Nearly a year ago, we chattered about this single family home in the Old Town Historic Triangle at 235 W. Menomonee.
The house has a private coach house and 3 parking spaces on an oversized lot.

We haven’t chattered much about The John Hancock Building at 175 E. Delaware in Streeterville/Gold Coast but now that Trump Tower is trying to steal its thunder (and views), maybe it’s time to re-visit it.

Current stats on the building (out of […]

But it’s a price cut, nonetheless.
And with flippers trying to flip properties in the […]

Due to the Thanksgiving holiday- there will not be any new Crib Chatter posts on Thursday. (Yes- even I need a day of rest and eating.)
But the normal schedule will resume on Friday (for those of you who will not be at the shopping malls or who will be stuck in your office- bored.)
Happy Thanksgiving!
