Posted by Leo Clark. on
The Bucktown neighborhood is easily one of the hottest locations on the west side right now, and arguably one of the hottest locations in all of Chicago.

In most instances, you might see a home or condo with a funky layout or some interesting interior finishes, but rarely do you come across what just hit the market over at Lake Point Tower.Â
No. 9 Walton (9 W. Walton St. Chicago) is one of the highest profile condo developments to break into the downtown market since perhaps the Ritz Carlton Residences were finished along Chicago’s famed Michigan Avenue, and buyers have clearly responded over the past 12 months or so. 
There’s certainly going to be a lot action around Chicago’s Wrigleyville neighborhood over the next couple weeks, or at least we hope so, and if you plan on making your way over to the ballpark at some point, why not make the most of your trip? Â
According to numerous reports, Chicago’s highest-profile condo development in the works is now over 25% sold before building permits have even been approved. Earlier this week, the Chicago Tribune spoke with Magellan National Marketing Director Jim Losik, who updated the project’s sales by reporting 110 of the 406 planned condos at Vista Tower are now under contract, which include the building’s full-floor units priced around $9 million.Â
