310 S Michigan Ave

The Metropolitan Tower is a 30-story landmark residential building on Michigan Avenue in Chicago, completed in 1924 and extensively renovated to combine historic character with modern systems. Architecturally the exterior maintains its period presence while common areas preserve original detailing; individual homes vary from two- to five-bedroom plans with high ceilings, hardwood floors, ornate millwork, and reconstructed traditional finishes. Residences show a mix of historic elements and contemporary upgrades: granite or marble counters, custom cabinetry, updated appliances, built-in bookcases, wet bars, and flexible rooms such as media dens or in-law suites. Building services and shared spaces include a staffed 24-hour doorman, elevator service, a fitness center with sauna and steam rooms, hot tub/whirlpool, massage/theatre facilities, laundry hookups in unit, storage rooms on-floor, rentable guest suites, and a landscaped roof deck with grills and dog run. Parking is available in a heated garage (deeded and tandem options) though purchase is optional; assessments commonly cover heat, air conditioning, gas, basic cable, internet and a phone line. The location offers immediate access to Grant Park, Millennium Park, Lake Michigan, the Symphony Center and theater district, positioning the tower for both cultural and urban lifestyle conveniences.
