4850 S Lake Park Ave

Harper Square is a 25-story cooperative tower constructed in 1970 and located in Chicago’s Kenwood/Hyde Park neighborhood. The building contains a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom cooperative units with varied floor plans that emphasize functional layouts and large living/dining combos. Interiors commonly feature high ceilings, built-in storage, walk-in closets, and first-floor bedroom/bath provisions in some layouts. The lobby was renovated and the property provides a 24-hour doorperson, elevator access, on-site management, and a staffed security presence. Shared amenities include a fitness room, party room, communal laundry facilities, on-site shops or convenience services, and storage options; unit assessments often cover heat, water, basic cable and exterior/interior maintenance. Exterior features include monitored entry and building lighting, plus an expansive landscaped courtyard adjoining the tower. Parking is available for a monthly fee with a separate garage queue; pet policy and specific parking allocations are determined by co-op rules. The cooperative structure requires board approval, a share purchase separate from sale price, and typically restricts rental use; many transactions have been cash-only and units are frequently sold as-is. The location places residents within walking distance of Lake Michigan, public transit, the University of Chicago, museums, grocery and restaurant districts, supporting a walkable, amenity-rich urban lifestyle.
