3550 N Lake Shore Dr

A full-service high-rise condominium on Chicago’s Lake Shore Drive, completed in 1962 and rising 28 stories. The tower contains a mix of studios, junior one-bedrooms, two- and three-bedroom residences that reflect a mid-century modern fabric updated through individual unit rehabs. Common interior features include hardwood or laminate floors in many units, granite and quartz counters in renovated kitchens, built-in millwork, spacious closets and storage lockers, and functional layouts with dining areas and occasional first-floor bedroom options. Shared spaces are oriented toward convenience and daily living: a staffed 24/7 doorman lobby, on-site management and maintenance, a fitness room, multiple laundry and commissary rooms, a party room, and retail services such as a convenience store and dry cleaner on the premises. Exterior amenities emphasize outdoor living and city outlooks: private balconies on select units, two rooftop sun decks with panoramic lake and skyline views, an outdoor grill/patio area, and monitored entry with door-mounted TV. Building systems and finances are notable for consistently maintained reserves and ongoing hallway and window upgrades. Parking is handled via an onsite garage with valet and monthly parking options; some units rent parking through the building. Pet policy restricts dogs; smoking and in-unit washers/dryers are limited by building rules. The location places residents steps from the Lakefront Trail, beaches, Belmont Harbor, Wrigley Field, public transit corridors, restaurants, and neighborhood shopping, supporting an active, urban-lakeside lifestyle.
