Four pricey Gold Coast condos are now up for sale, following the recent announcement that a billionaire financial chief is headed to Florida. Ken Griffin, of Citadel, recently announced plans to move his firm to Miami.

Since that time, he’s put four of his condo holdings on the market, all of which are individually priced upwards of $10 million. To put that in perspective, just two Downtown Chicago condos sold for upwards of $10 million last year, and Griffin has four up for sale this year.

The real estate includes an entire unfinished floor at No 9 Walton. Griffin purchased all four top floors of the building in 2017 for $58.5 million but never finished the space. As of now, just the lower-level unit belonging to Griffin is for sale.

Listed for $14 million, the 35th floor condo includes more than 7,000 square feet of space. Griffin previously paid $12.5 for that floor of the building.

He is also selling a 7,400 square foot condo on the 37th floor of the Waldorf-Astoria Chicago. The five-bedroom condo was purchased by Griffin in 2014, and is now on the market for $11.5, which is less than what he originally paid for it.

The third condo for sale is on the 66th floor of Park Tower. Priced at more than $13 million, the condo offers 8,000 square feet of space, including four-bedrooms. A duplex unit belonging to Griffin is also for sale at Park Tower with 9,200 square feet of space, including six-bedrooms.
