We last chattered about this 2-bedroom vintage unit at 630 W. Oakdale in Lakeview in November 2008. See the old chatter here. On the market since July 2008, it has now seen a $50,000 reduction from its original listing price. Here’s its history: Unit #3E: 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, sunroom, 1600 square feet Sold in […]
We haven’t yet chattered about The Clocktower Lofts, at 2300 W. Wabansia, in Bucktown. The brick and timber building has 113 lofts. These lofts aren’t new construction cookie cutter. This 2-bedroom unit is one of the top floor duplex units which have a unique wall of skylights. Greg Vollan at @Properties has the listing. See more pictures […]
We last chattered about this 3-bedroom vintage greystone unit at 2523 N. Burling in Lincoln Park in July 2008. See the pictures and chatter here. Since then, it has been reduced another $4,000.

The listing says “Mies Van der Rohe inspired” and so it seems, with floor to ceiling windows and open space. Akos Straub at Jameson Realty has the […]
Sorry about all the update posts lately, but quite a few of the properties we’ve chattered about are still on the market and many have had price reductions. During this “slow” winter market, I’ll be updating as many of them as I can. We last chattered about this 2-bedroom unit at 444 W. Belmont in Lakeview in August […]
There seem to be a lot of properties that have long market times that are now reducing prices given that the calender has changed to 2009. This 3-bedroom vintage unit at 626 W. Belden in Lincoln Park is one of them. See the old chatter and pictures here. Since we last chattered about this renovated greystone unit, it has reduced […]
We keep chattering about this 2 bedroom brick and timber loft in The Donohue Building at 711 S. Dearborn in Printers Row. It has been reduced another $20,000 for a total of $120,000 since it came on the market in 2008. Several of you commented, when we first chattered about the unit in May 2008, […]
