Live Among the Saints: St. Phillipus Lofts in McKinley Park
Chicago has an enormous amount of churches but as the congregations dwindle, many religious orders are left to contemplate: what to do with a church that isn’t wanted anymore?
Years ago, Chicago figured out the answer: convert them into housing.
The latest such project is in the McKinley Park area a few blocks from the orange line stop.
The St. Phillipus Lofts, at 3556 S. Seeley, is ten units priced from $259,900 to $379,900. The $259,900 unit is a 1027 square foot 2 bedroom, 2 bath.
There is parking available.
Sorry, no pictures yet of the interior. Deliveries from February until late spring.
Century 21 S.G.R. has the listings.

Very cool place. I’ve been in there, and I have pictures somewhere, I’ll have to send them. Only thing is, McKinley Park is not really that cool of an area. Nice park, but the inhabintants are a little ghetto. (No Offense). My sister boguth a hous over there.
Jason,
Do you still have these pictures? I’d be interested to see them.
I doubt Jason is checking 16 years later, but one never knows, I guess.
