Live in the heart of River North in a polished high rise that puts the best of downtown right outside your door. The crown jewel here is the rooftop, where a swimming pool and sun deck open up to sweeping views of the Chicago skyline and Lake Michigan, the kind of setting that makes ordinary evenings feel like something more. Inside, the apartments lean modern and bright, with floor to ceiling windows that pull in light all day, contemporary kitchens finished with granite counters, in unit washer and dryer, and deep spa baths made for soaking after a long day. Many homes open onto spacious balconies or terraces, and some catch those coveted lake and skyline views for themselves.
The amenities go well beyond the rooftop. There is a full fitness center with space for yoga, a comfortable resident lounge, a billiards room for unwinding with neighbors, and a spa to round out the wellness offerings. Covered parking is available on site, and twenty four hour door service means there is always someone looking out for you and your packages. Pets are genuinely welcome here, large dogs included, and there is a dedicated dog run on the fourth floor so your companion never has to go far. For longer walks, Ohio Place Dog Park is an easy stroll away, a real plus for pet owners.
Getting around could not be simpler. The Chicago stop on the Brown and Purple lines sits about three blocks away, putting the entire city within easy reach.... A Whole Foods is just a few minutes on foot for everything from a quick dinner to a full week of groceries, and when you want some green space, Washington Square is right around the corner. The surrounding streets are packed with coffee shops, restaurants, and neighborhood favorites, so you are always steps from something good.
This is the rare combination of refined living, resort style amenities, and a location that keeps you connected to the best of Chicago. Come see it in person and picture yourself at home. Reach out today to schedule a tour. Amenities: Freezer & Range/Oven. Heating: forced air.
