The Frank Fisher Studios is a two-story, 1936 landmarked Art Moderne/Art Deco residential building in Chicago’s Gold Coast. Designed by Andrew Rebori with decorative work by Edgar Miller, the intimate mid‑block property contains a small collection of one‑bedroom duplexes and studio-style units arranged around a gated, brick‑paved courtyard. Characteristic architectural elements include curved interior staircases, a dramatic two‑story living room with a large glass‑block wall, beamed and cathedral ceiling moments, wood‑burning fireplaces, and period millwork integrated with updated finishes. Interiors commonly feature open floorplans, hardwood and marble floors, granite or quartz counters, stainless appliances and built‑in storage; some homes have lofted bedrooms or office nooks overlooking the main living space. Shared amenities emphasize the landscaped courtyard with fountain, seating, fire pits and controlled gate access; on‑site laundry and additional storage are available. Parking is not dedicated to every unit but multiple rental and permit options exist nearby, including a neighboring garage. The building permits pets and benefits from a prime walkable location—steps from Oak Street Beach, Michigan Avenue, transit, restaurants and shopping—while offering a residential, historic setting rather than large modern high‑rise services.
