All About 1550 North Wieland Street
Posted by Leo Clark. on
A new mixed-use project brings exciting new residential options to Old Town. The six-story building at 1550 N Wieland sits where an old hardware store and a couple of dozen apartments once stood, now making room for dozens of more rental units, some parking and retail space in the area.
In all, the building supplies 60 new residential units to the neighborhood, sitting just across from the Second City theater. The location also puts residents within a short stroll of other nearby entertainment options, as well as local shops and restaurants, and just steps from the lake.
The building itself features a rooftop deck with room for grilling, while the pet-friendly property additionally features a play area and a dog run. Garage parking is available for an extra…

With Thanksgiving right around the corner and Chicago being one of the top food cities on the face of the planet, we thought we’d have a little fun this week and add a series of posts that talk about all things food in Chicago.
If you’re searching for something to do on Halloween night, Downtown Chicago has some great options.
Chicago boasts some impressive loft buildings, many of them situated on the city’s North Side. And if you're someone who happens to be in the market for a new loft somewhere in Lakeview, Lincoln Park, or even Roscoe Village, here are a few great spots to begin your search:
Chicago’s Gold Coast neighborhood is where you’ll find some of the Windy City’s most expensive properties on the market. And one of this is reportedly off the market.
Another expensive condo has reportedly hit the market in Trump Tower, this time a unit owned by the former United Chairman and CEO. Officially listed back on the 12th, the lavish residence sits up on the building’s 34th floor and features two bedrooms, 3,437 square feet of living space, and a price tag of $4.675 million—almost double the 2013 purchase price of $2.375 million.
A site formerly earmarked for a new condo tower could soon instead bring new townhouses to the area of Polish Triangle. Last summer the developer released plans to construct a 12-story condo tower at Noble Square and Wicker Park, but has since come out with a new plan for nearly two-dozen townhouses at the site.
A new skyscraper could soon soar to new heights in the West Loop, where developers are making plans for a new 51-story tower. Slated for a site just off ‘Restaurant Row’, plans call for 300 new residential units, more than 200 parking spaces and some new commercial space in Fulton Market.
The proposed construction of two towers in River North could generate a new contender when it comes to the city’s tallest structures. A newly submitted application calls for one of the towers to rise 1,011 feet, or rather 76-stories. If all goes as planned, the development would make that building one of Chicago’s tallest.
