Here's Where You Should Rent a Luxury Condo in Downtown Chicago Right Now
Posted by Leo Clark. on
If you’re not quite ready to buy or perhaps only plan on living in downtown Chicago temporarily, there’s hardly a shortage of luxury condo buildings to choose from that offer exceptional living spaces for rent. But if you’re someone who truly requires the best of the best, here’s a quick look at what we consider 3 of the most luxurious places to rent in 2018:
Aqua Chicago
Undeniably one of downtown Chicago’s most distinct condo towers, at least from a design aspect, Aqua also sits just off the riverfront in the city’s ultra-luxe urban playground known as the New Eastside. Look for Aqua condos for rent to offer insane views, roomy layouts, and insanely huge balconies that are great for entertaining and impressing anyone you have over.

Another luxury condo has been moved over at Trump Tower, according to a new report out from the Chicago Tribune. The buyer, entrepreneur and philanthropist Richard A. Chaifetz, has apparently shelled out $9.4 million for the four-bedroom, 6,850 square foot unit, which occupies about half of the building’s 87th floor. 
Many home buyers searching for a new condo in downtown Chicago often want more than one bedroom associated with their new housing investment. The additional living space, not to mention the added re-sale value, makes a big difference when it comes to choosing the right place to call home and in a market like Chicago, there’s certainly no shortage of condos for sale with two-, three-, or sometimes even four-bedrooms.
While not all of us can afford a million dollar home in Chicago, these high-end listings are still fun to browse whenever you get the chance. Whether it’s a chic condominium residence high above the bustling street level in Streeteville, a trendy duplex loft condo in the up-and-coming South Loop, a spacious single-family home on a double lot in Lincoln Park, or even a historic brownstone situated in the heart of Chicago’s Gold Coast, there’s no denying million dollar real estate listings in Chicago are all extraordinary in their own way.
Today we thought today we’d highlight one of our favorite condominium buildings not just in the River North neighborhood, but in all of downtown Chicago. Although this part of the city is jam-packed with exclusive and luxurious residential buildings, there’s just something about 201 W. Grand that sets it apart from the rest.
It hardly a secret that Chicago’s Logan Square neighborhood has been on the upswing for awhile now, and new demolition permit data that was recently highlighted by Chicago Magazine confirms what most of us already know: Logan Square is still red hot heading into the busy spring season. 
In a market like downtown Chicago, there’s always going to be homes, condos and rentals that blow your mind in terms of finishes, amenities and of course…the price tag. Even if you don’t happen to be in the market for a luxury rental and spending more than a few thousand dollars per month seems like something out of a fairy tale right now, it’s always fun to see what’s on the market and maybe dream that one day you too can call one of these luxury properties home.
It’s no secret Streeterville is home to some of Chicago’s most expensive real estate. Whether it’s the exquisite co-ops lining East Lake Shore Drive or a luxury high-rise condo residence situated high above the busy streets below, Streeterville is where luxury real estate and the downtown Chicago lifestyle go hand-in-hand.
Lincoln Park is certainly one Chicago neighborhood that is known for its luxury real estate. Anything from expansive single-family homes to a lavish multi-level townhomes can be found all throughout the area, but if you’re one who wants to simplify your living situation and prefers the easy and convenient condominium lifestyle, there’s also plenty of extravagant condo buildings that should fit all your needs and desires in a new Chicago home.
It seems more and more people are starting to work from home, at least during part of the work week, and if you find yourself in a somewhat similar situation, it’s important to consider not only your personal needs when looking for a new condo for sale in downtown Chicago, but also your professional needs as well.
