Believe it or not, some of the best deals you'll find on high rise condos can be found up along the lakefront in Lincoln Park. Many of these buildings include updated living spaces, spectacular views of the city and Chicago's gorgeous lakefront, and even with a budget of under $400,000, you might be surprised at just how much value you'll find up in this part of town, and more specifically, at these Lincoln Park condo buildings.
Several major downtown neighborhoods like the West Loop, South Loop, River North, and even part of the Loop are known for classic and historic loft conversions that continue to “wow” Chicago home buyers. But in a city as large as Chicago, old warehouses and industrial buildings that now house some of the most desirable residential real estate are located all over the city and are just waiting to be found by home buyers looking for the ultimate urban sanctuary. Â
A new plan is reportedly in the works at the site of the former Chicago Spire condo tower. Work on the luxury tower, which once aimed to become the second tallest building in the world, stalled shortly after construction began.
Downtown Chicago isn’t short sweet residential loft conversions, especially in neighborhoods like River North and the West Loop. But if you don’t mind living a bit further south, or perhaps just want a little more bang for your buck, Chicago’s South Loop neighborhood also has quite the selection of fabulous lofts currently on the market, starting with what you’ll find in these top buildings.
Some Chicago home buyers love the idea of living high in the sky and sharing a building with hundreds of other residents. Others—not so much. While it’s inarguable that the dozens of residential Chicago skyscrapers help make up the greatest skyline on earth, some people just aren’t cut out for the high-rise lifestyle. On the other hand, if living among all the action and hustle and bustle of downtown still sounds appealing, your options can quickly become limited if a high-rise condo is out of the question.
The recently completed Lincoln Park 2550 is among the most exclusive high-rises not just in Lincoln Park, but in all of Chicago. As a Lucien Lagrange building, there’s no denying the elegance seen in and around Lincoln Park 2550, but in a part of town that offers more of a quaint neighborhood feel and a lakefront location that features magnificent views of both the water and downtown Chicago from afar, there’s certainly more to this one-of-a-kind development than just a timeless design.
If you’ve ever lived in a Chicago condo building, no matter the size, you probably understand why some buildings have various pet restrictions that limit certain dog breeds, the size of dogs, and of course the number of dogs you can have inside your condo. Part of such restrictions is to minimize how much of a disturbance you or your dog will be to your fellow residents, while other reasons may include additional maintenance or cleanup around the building or to reduce the potential for property damage a dog may or may not cause.
Downtown Chicago’s apartment market has been booming over the last few years as thousands of new units have consistently been delivered in some of the city’s hottest neighborhoods. In River North, projects like Wolf Point West, Aurélien, and Gallery on Wells were all just recently completed, much like HUBBARD221—a sleek 23-story tower that offers a central location, upscale finishes, and a range of floor plans that include studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom layouts.
Townhomes are a hot property-type in Lincoln Park for a variety of reasons. Although townhome residents may not have quite as much privacy and space than what single-family homes offer, Lincoln Park townhomes for sale have several key advantages that are certainly worth noting.
