Since we were talking about 540 N. Lake Shore Drive so much the other day, I decided to revisit the units I had last chattered about in September 2007. At the time, numerous units were on the market including one, Unit #625, where the seller was trying to double his/her money after owning for only about two years. Well, […]
Closings began on 600 N. Lake Shore Drive, Belgravia’s new towers on the lake in Streeterville, last fall. One of the three units I chattered about in late January has sold. Unit #1704: 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, 2149 square feet I’m not sure if this unit sold previously as I couldn’t find an original sales […]
Remember this small studio loft in the Grand Ohio at 211 E. Ohio in Streeterville? I chattered about it in November 2007. It sold. The third floor is unique in the building because the space was formerly offices. There are washer/dryers allowed in the units and they have 16 foot high ceilings. Unit #314: studio […]
The Olympia Centre, at 161 E. Chicago in Streeterville, is a 63 story high rise that was completed in 1985. It is a full service condo building with washer/dryers in the units, parking and an amenities floor. It is best known as the Neiman Marcus building, because the store anchors it on Michigan Avenue. There are units of varying sizes […]

But now price reductions are starting on the larger units as the weeks drag on without many re-sales. I still haven’t seen any of the larger units re-sell in the building. Closings began the first week of November 2007. […]
The Pearson, at 250 E. Pearson in Streeterville, closed in 2003 and has been a very popular building for re-sales. It has held its value well. That part of Pearson is quiet, with the south facing units overlooking the park, the lake and Northwestern University Law School. Yet you are two blocks east of the Mag […]

200 East Pearson in Streeterville/Gold Coast is that rare building that you might walk by a million times before realizing that people actually live there. Just east of Michigan Avenue, across from the Museum of Contemporary Art, 200 East Pearson was built in 1916. It has only 10 units. From Chicago Apartments: A Century of […]
Apparently, this poster on Craigslist thinks if he/she just asks if anyone is interested- people will respond. Are there any interested parties out there who are looking for a high floor one-bedroom in the new Jahn building at 600 N Fairbanks? I don’t have the exact numbers, but I would estimate there are at least 200 […]
