We chattered about a home on Logan Boulevard but how about on Humboldt? This American Four-Square at 2048 N. Humbold Boulevard was built in 1921 in the Logan Square neighborhood. It has great vintage details but, as the listing admits, it is “ready for your updating.” There are no pictures of the kitchen and only a partial view […]
There’s been a lot of chatter about three bedroom units in some of the new construction high rises with around 1700 to 1900 square feet. We’ve seen these routinely listed around $800,000 to $1 million. I recently stumbled across these two units selling in The Chandler, at 450 E. Waterside Drive, in Lakeshore East. The building is a new […]
1129 N. Mozart is a gut conversion of a three unit building in Humboldt Park. The developer has been trying to sell the units individually for just about a year. (Thanks to the tipster who sent me info about this building.) Recently, the entire building came on the market. Here’s the information about the building: […]
We are so used to the granite, stainless steel and other “modern” interiors we forget that only ten years ago, those weren’t the norm in conversions and new construction in the city. 300 W. Grand in River North is a loft building that was converted in the 1990s. Some of the units have been upgraded […]

711 W. Melrose in East Lakeview was converted into condominiums at the peak of the housing boom in 2005. Four owners are trying to sell their one bedroom units. Each has a new kitchen and bath, a washer/dryer, central air and a fireplace. Parking is available for $20,000. There’s no square footage given for any […]
732 S. Financial, Printers Row Lofts, is a 1906 building that was first converted into apartments in 1996 and then converted into loft condominiums in 2003-2004. The units are timber with lots of authentic brick. There actually is parking available with this building (to purchase or to rent.) And washer/dryers are allowed in the units. Some have interesting layouts, like this […]
