A brick-clad, 12-story loft-style condominium built in 1904 and reconfigured for residential use, the property combines historic industrial character with modern condo conveniences. Units are predominantly multi-bedroom (common 2–3 bedroom layouts) with high or vaulted ceilings, oversized east- and corner-facing windows, exposed brick in many homes, hardwood floors, built-ins, and flexible open-plan living and dining areas. Kitchens commonly feature granite or quartz counters, stainless appliances, and islands or breakfast bars; primary suites typically include walk-in closets and ensuite baths with double vanities or separate tub-and-shower configurations. Building-level amenities emphasize neighborhood living: a staffed lobby/doorperson, passenger elevator, common roof deck/sundeck with grilling and city views, a party/meeting room, storage in the basement, and monitored entry systems. Practical conveniences include on-site laundry or in-unit washer/dryer hookups, individual heating/AC units in many residences, and deeded or rentable heated garage parking. Pet-friendly policies apply. The location sits in Printer’s Row/South Loop with immediate access to riverfront parks, CTA lines, Metra, nearby museums, lakefront green space, restaurants, and commuter arterials, offering an urban lifestyle that blends historic context with everyday functionality.
