Crib Chatter

This 4-bedroom vintage row home at 437 W. Webster in East Lincoln Park came on the market in March 2026.

Built in 1886, 437 W. Webster was “masterfully renovated, restored and expanded” in 2014. On a lot measuring 20×115, it has a heated 2-car garage with a coach house.

Many of its vintage features remain including 2 wood burning fireplaces, ornate plaster moldings and the living room has an original wood archway with pocket doors.

It has the original cornice on the front of the house.

The staircase has been restored.

There are herringbone oak floors on the main floor, which is the second floor as you walk up the stairs to enter the home.

The main floor has the living room, what they call a family room, and the kitchen, along with a half bathroom. There’s no dining room.

There is a wood burning fireplace in the living room with a marble surround. There is a second fireplace in the adjoining family room also with a marble surround, which appears to be decorative.

The kitchen is in the back of the row house, with south facing windows, which leads to a deck and the backyard.

The chef’s kitchen has a built-in banquette and custom white cabinetry. There’s a kitchen island with seating for 3 with black cabinets. It has top-of-the-line appliances with a custom range hood and a walk-in-pantry.

The third floor has 3 out of the 4 bedrooms including the primary suite which has an en suite bathroom with a skylight, a double vanity and walk-in-shower. It also has a walk-in-closet and custom millwork along with a gas fireplace.

The other two bedrooms share a full bathroom.

There’s a skylight above the staircase.

The first floor has a dry bar, with two beverage refrigerators, a wood burning fireplace, a full bath, a bedroom, a walk-in laundry room, a playroom and a mud room. It has its own separate entrance.

There is an all brick exterior to the row home with a bluestone walkway and back patio.

It also has a 2-car heated garage with a coach house above. The coach house has a full kitchen with white cabinets, a Murphy bed with shelving and the listing says an updated bathroom. It suggests using it as a guest room or an office.

This row home has central air and it appears the coach house does too.

It’s in a prime East Lincoln Park location, near Lincoln Park, the zoo, bus lines, shops, restaurants and schools.

The row home last sold in July 2021 for $2.5 million and was only listed for several days when it went under contract.

It has come back on the market for $2.995 million, or $495,000 more than 2021.

Will this property be under contract by the time you read this post in this hotter market?

Keith Brand and Meaghan McCarthy at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices has the listing. See the pictures here.

This 3-bedroom at 1544 N. State Parkway in the Gold Coast came on the market in March 2026.

But if it looks familiar, that’s because we’ve been chattering about it since 2019. It has never sold.

The last time we chattered about it was in August 2023. Back then, the listing called it a maisonette, which anon(tfo) disputed. Some of you also had an issue that it was called a “penthouse.” Otherwise, many of you wondered who was going to live in the Gold Coast anymore.

You can see our 2023 chatter here.

1550 N. State Parkway was designed by Benjamin Marshall in 1912 and has just 32 units. It’s exterior is covered in limestone and it overlooks Lincoln Park.

The building has 24/7 door staff, bike storage, an exercise room, a common rooftop deck, a wine cellar, a guest apartment and walk-in storage units. There’s no parking.

But remember, this unit is in 1544 N. State Parkway, the shorter side building that is seen above in my poorly taken picture. There are 2 units in that building which share the courtyard in the front. These units have 2 separate entrances, either through the landscaped courtyard or through the building’s lobby.

This unit is the top floor penthouse.

If you recall, the unit had sold in an auction from the bank in 2016. It was then renovated with a new kitchen and baths and put on the market. It doesn’t appear to have any of the original vintage features but there is crown molding in the living/dining/kitchen.

It has a bespoke kitchen with modern cabinets and a 10’4? island with slabstone top. It has a 60? Thermador, 48? Wolf 6 burner range oven and Macauba stone countertops.

This kitchen has 2 islands with 2 separate sinks. The second island is a wet bar with a built-in wine chiller.

There are 7 inch wide plank hardwood floors throughout the main living areas.

The primary bedroom has an en suite bath with heated floors and a steam shower.

The second bathroom also has heated floors.

This unit has some of the features buyers look for including a side-by-side washer/dryer in the unit and space pac cooling. There’s no parking, however.

This building is adjacent to Lincoln Park and is near the shops and restaurants of Old Town and East Lincoln Park. There are several bus lines nearby. North Avenue Beach is a short stroll away.

You may recall, the unit was originally listed in May 2019 at $1,049,999 but never sold and was withdrawn. It was on the market in August 2023 for $649,000.

It is now listed in March 2026 for $485,000.

Is this a deal? Is it finally going to sell this year?

Amir Fouad at @properties Christie’s has the listing again. See the pictures and floor plan here.

This 3-bedroom loft in 1000 W. Washington in the West Loop came on the market in January 2026.

It went under contract quickly but was re-listed in February 2026.

1000 W. Washington used to be called the Epicenter Lofts but no one is calling it that anymore. It was built in 1910 and has 183 units and an attached heated parking garage.

It’s one of the few buildings in the West Loop with door staff and also has a bike room, on-site manager/engineer, a sundeck and a party room.

The listing says this is a “rare” single level unit with 2400 square feet.

It has 13′ ceilings, exposed brick (most of it painted), and “dramatic” triple-wide, south facing industrial windows.

The unit has hardwood floors throughout.

The main living space is open concept with the kitchen, living and dining room.

The Chef’s kitchen has double height white cabinets, a massive quartzite waterfall island with seating for 6, and luxury appliances like a 6 burner Viking range.

There’s a den area the connects the main living space with the primary suite. The unit is shaped like a “U” with the den being the connector between the two sides. It appears to have a wet bar with a beverage refrigerator.

The primary suite has windows, a seating area, a walk-in-closet, and a “spa-inspired” bathroom with a walk-in-shower and radiant heated floors.

The second bathroom has a bathtub.

The other two bedrooms do not seem to have windows.

The unit also has a south facing balcony with a gas line.

This unit has the features buyers look for including central air, washer/dryer in the unit and one heated garage parking space is included with an EV charger installed.

The listing says it’s in the Skinner Elementary school district.

This building is near the Randolph Row restaurant scene, West Loop shops and restaurants, and Fulton Market shops and restaurants. It’s near bus lines.

Listed at $1.379 million in January 2026, it’s still listed at that price.

This loft last sold in 2018 for $1.2 million.

Does this loft have it all?

Anne Rossley at Baird & Warner has the listing. See the pictures and floor plan here.

This 2-bedroom in the Parkside of Old Town building at 511 W. Division in Old Town came on the market in March 2026. However it had been originally listed in November and December of 2025.

The last time we chattered about this building was in 2011 when the developer was still selling units in the building during the housing bust. That is the 2011 picture above. I have a newer picture of the back of the building below.

Parkside of Old Town was built in 2008, just as the housing boom was ending. It has 79 units and attached heated garage parking.

It’s an elevator building with an exercise room but no door staff.

The listing says this unit has been “completely reimagined” and has been “beautifully rehabbed” with “designer finishes.”

The unit has wide plank flooring.

There is a custom kitchen with green cabinets on the base and white cabinets on the uppers, quartz countertops, and premium stainless steel appliances along with a large breakfast bar that seats 5.

Both bathrooms have been “redesigned” with custom vanities and modern tilework.

The primary suite has a “spa inspired” en suite bathroom with a double vanity and bathtub.

This unit is a south and west facing corner unit and has a wraparound balcony that has city views of the Sears/Willis Tower and the Loop and, to the east, of the Hancock.

This unit has the features that buyers look for including central air, washer/dryer in the unit and one car heated garage parking is included.

This building is near the shops and restaurants of Old Town, Target and Jewel are just steps away, and it’s near major bus routes.

There’s a lot of residential construction going up south of this building, but directly south, as the picture below shows, are some townhouses.

Listed in November 2025 for $630,000, it was withdrawn from the market in December 2025.

It came back on in March 2026 reduced $5,000 at $625,000. This is $190,000 above the 2021 purchase price of $435,000.

Buyers love “new.”

Will this seller get the premium?

Blaz Bilic at Mark Allen Realty ERA Powered has the listing. See the pictures and floor plan here.

This 2-bedroom in 1212 N. LaSalle in Old Town came on the market in March 2026.

1212 N. LaSalle was built in 1988 and converted into condos in 1992-94. It has 230 units and attached garage parking.

The building has 24/7 door staff, an exercise room and bike storage.

This unit is one of the rare 2-bedroom units. It has oversized windows and a semi-open concept.

There are hardwood floors throughout.

The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and what looks like stone countertops. It has a peninsula with seating for 2.

The living and dining room are in a combo with a private balcony.

Neither of the bedrooms are en suite but there are two bathrooms.

One of the bedrooms has a second private balcony.

The unit has a walk-in-closet.

It has some of the features buyers look for including central air and washer/dryer in the unit. The listing doesn’t say there is any parking, so I don’t think it has a space. It is deeded separately. But if anyone else can tell, let us know.

This building is near the shops and restaurants of Old Town and the Gold Coast and there are 3 grocery stores, Aldi, Jewel, and The Fresh Market, within a few blocks.

There are buses and the Red Line stop at Clark nearby.

I’m having a hard time finding properties to crib about because the inventory remains at a record low and when something new does come on the market, it is often selling within days.

Crain’s Dennis Rodkin covered Chicago’s red hot market this week:

Within 48 hours of going up for sale last weekend, a two-bedroom condo on Cleveland Avenue in Lincoln Park received a dozen offers and went under contract.

“This market is wilder than ever,” said Shay Hata, the @properties Christie’s International Real Estate agent who represented the two-bedroom condo in the handsome 1920s building seen at the top of this story. The deal has not closed, and because the contract is contingent there’s a chance it won’t, but the flurry of offers suggests the condo will go for more than its $450,000 asking price.

This Lincoln Park condo was at the lower price point. But according to the article, homes listed over $1 million are also going under contract quickly in the city and suburbs.

“It’s kind of insane right now,” said Kim Brychel, an agent who’s also with @properties Christie’s. Her clients’ five-bedroom house on Leavitt Street in Lincoln Square hit the market at just under $1.7 million and was under contract six days later. The insanity, Brychel said, “is very stressful for buyers,” who have to jump like Jordan in order to score a purchase.

A coach house on Magnolia Avenue in Lincoln Park priced at a little under $1.2 million went under contract Feb. 15, two days after hitting the market.

The article also had one agent commenting that some buyers are bringing Mom and Dad with them to the showings and that they are getting help on the down payment from their parents.

Is Chicago the hottest housing market in America in 2026?

Chicago homes fly off the market as ‘wild’ 2026 season gets underway [Crain’s Chicago Business, by Dennis Rodkin, February 19, 2026]

This 3-bedroom penthouse level duplex-up at 800 W. Cornelia in Lakeview came on the market in February 2026.

Built in 2002, 800 W. Cornelia is a boutique elevator building with 25 units and attached garage parking.

If it looks familiar that’s because we have chattered about this unit before, during the housing bust in 2009-2010.

It sold in 2010 for $41,000 above the 2004 price and most of you who chimed in thought it was worth the price.

For those who weren’t around in 2010, it was rare to see a property selling for more than the 2004-2007 price. But this one had updated finishes and 2-car garage parking.

See our 2010 chatter here.

The unit has now been “impeccably updated.”

There are hardwood floors through the main living area on the first floor.

In the kitchen, the old wood Shaker cabinets and granite counter tops are gone (see prior listing photos). The kitchen now has modern white custom cabinets on the uppers and royal blue custom cabinets on the lower with a white marble countertop and backsplash. It still has an island, now with royal blue cabinets on the base, and seating for two.

The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and is open concept to the living and dining room.

There’s a gas fireplace in the living room and room for a dining room table in the dining area. There’s also a balcony off the living room.

Two of the three bedrooms are on the main floor along with a full bathroom.

The second floor has a family room with a wet bar and a powder room so your guests don’t have to go into the primary bedroom’s bathroom.

The primary bedroom has an en suite bathroom with a double vanity and an oversized shower with bench and multi-shower head along with a walk-in-closet.

The unit has a large terrace accessed off the family room and primary bedroom. It has skyline views, ceramic tile decking, a built-in outdoor kitchen with a sink, planters with small trees, other vegetation, water, and electricity.

It has the features buyers look for including central air, washer/dryer in the unit (on the main floor), and 2-car garage parking is included.

The listing says the windows and sliding doors have been replaced.

The building is on North Halsted, surrounded by shops and restaurants. The Jewel grocery store is just two blocks away and there are buses and the Addison Red Line nearby. Wrigley Field is just a short stroll away.

Listed at $869,000 with 1805 square feet, will this get multiple offers?

Ed Jelinek at @properties Christie’s has the listing. See the pictures here.

This 3-bedroom in 500 W. Barry in East Lakeview came on the market in February 2026.

Built in 1927, 500 W. Barry has 11 units. It’s also a rare vintage building that has garage parking for owners and guest parking.

The listing says the 3 bathrooms have been “fully renovated.”

It appears that two of the bedrooms are en suite, including the primary bedroom.

There’s a private balcony.

The unit has the features buyers look for, but which can be rare for vintage units, including washer/dryer in the unit, central air, and one garage space is included. There is also guest parking available.

This building is near the shops and restaurants on Broadway in East Lakeview and several bus lines. The listing says it’s in the Nettelhorst school district.

This unit came on the market for about a month last Oct-Nov and was under contract but then was removed.

This 5-bedroom vintage duplex penthouse in 1320 N. State Parkway in the Gold Coast came on the market in April 2024.

1320 N. State Parkway was designed by Robert S. De Goyler in 1927. It has 40 units and a brick and limestone façade. There’s no parking with the building.

It is a co-op building with a doorman, bike storage, a newly renovated exercise room, a communal courtyard with tables, grills and a garden, a new residents lounge and individual mail delivery to each apartment. It has an on-site manager and engineering staff. There’s also large private storage.

It has a dramatic 2-story living room with a wood burning fireplace, linenfold paneling and an ornamental plaster barrel vaulted ceiling.

The oversized windows open directly onto a “rare” 61-foot private terrace.

The dining room is also paneled and the listing says it can fit up to 20 guests.

The HOAs are $12,393 a month which includes all of the on-site staff including door staff, manager and engineers and the taxes.

At 7,750 square feet, is this a deal for the square footage?
