We last chattered about this 3-bedroom townhouse at 1246 W. Oakdale in Lakeview in January 2013. See our previous chatter here. Some of you will remember it as the epic thread that included a debate (again) about the city versus the suburbs. But those of you who did comment on the property thought it would […]
We’ve chattered about units in this pre-war building at 500 W. Barry in East Lakeview before. The last few years, we chattered about a 3-bedroom third floor unit, Unit #3W, which was listed in April 2011 at $799,900 and ended up selling last November for $575,000. See our February 2012 chatter on that unit here. […]
We’ve chattered about this 3-bedroom duplex at 2131 N. Clark in East Lincoln Park twice over the last 4 months. See our January 2013 chatter here. It originally came on the market in mid-November 2012 at $375,000. It was an estate sale and was being sold “as-is.” It lingered on the market for several months […]
We last chattered about this 3-bedroom in Crilly Court at 1708 N. Wells in Old Town in January 2013. See our prior chatter here. Over the last few years, owners in Crilly Court have been some of the few that have either made money or broke even on their 2007 purchases. (The buildings were converted […]

This 5-bedroom single family home at 2050 W. Churchill in Bucktown was first listed in December 2010 and stayed on the market for 7 months. It never sold. It’s back on the market and has been reduced. I couldn’t find the original 2010 list price but in January 2011 it was listed at $1.199 million. It’s now […]
Ever wonder what the penthouses are like in the grand pre-war buildings of Chicago? This 3-bedroom duplex penthouse in The Barry at 3100 N. Sheridan in East Lakeview recently came on the market. It has a private entry off the elevator and 2 private terraces. All 3 bedrooms are on the second level. Vintage features […]
If this building at 353 W. Dickens in East Lincoln Park looks familiar, it’s because we chattered about the building in November 2012. See our prior chatter here. Back in November, it was a top floor unit with a “crow’s nest” which had a private roof top deck but few renovations. It was listed at $499,000 but […]
This 2-bedroom penthouse in 320 W. Oakdale in East Lakeview has been on the market since September 2012. Yes, it is a “real” penthouse. It’s on the top floor and it has a massive private terrace which has views of Lincoln Park and the lake. It was apparently the home of the architect who designed […]
