253 E Delaware Pl

A 23-story, 1957-built residential condominium in Chicago’s Streeterville/Gold Coast fringe, the building primarily offers studio and one-bedroom layouts within a mid-century high-rise form. Exterior features include a roof deck with grills, evening lighting, and city-facing windows that capture lake and skyline views from upper floors. Common interior amenities emphasize full-service living: a 24-hour doorman, updated passenger elevators, fitness and party rooms, an attended lobby, on-site management, coin laundry, and dedicated storage lockers. Individual units tend toward open floor plans with flexible sleeping arrangements (murphy beds or glass-block separations noted), walk-in closets or generous closet systems, and a mix of original and renovated finishes—hardwood or laminate floors, modernized kitchens and baths in many units, and efficient radiant/electric heat systems. Building services accommodate daily needs with valet/garage parking available for a monthly fee, guest parking coupons, Zipcar access, and receiving services. Pet policy and exact service contracts vary by unit; assessments commonly include gas, heat, water and basic cable. The location places residents a short walk from Lake Michigan, Oak Street Beach, Michigan Avenue shopping, Northwestern/Lurie hospital campuses, transit links, restaurants and urban parks, supporting a walkable, amenity-rich city lifestyle.
