5 N Wabash Ave

A 17-story landmark-era condominium conversion in Chicago’s Loop, built in 1931 and repurposed for residential use in the early 2000s. The masonry building preserves many period touches—tall, 10–11 foot ceilings, large Chicago‑style corner windows, and an original marble-accented lobby—while units offer modern updates such as quartz and granite counters, stainless appliances, hardwood floors, and in-unit laundry. Layouts range from soft-loft one-bedrooms and one-bed-plus-den plans to expansive three-bedroom corner units; many residences include private storage rooms located on the same floor. Common elements emphasize vertical living convenience: an elevator, secured lobby entry, and acoustically conditioned demising walls for sound control. Utilities such as heat, water and often air conditioning are included in assessments; monthly fees also cover building systems and some cable services. Located on Jewelers Row near Millennium Park, the site places residents steps from multiple CTA lines, the lakefront, theaters, museums, restaurants and dense downtown retail. Parking options are off-site/discounted nearby garage arrangements. Pet policies and on-site concierge services vary by unit; the building appeals to buyers seeking historic character paired with updated urban amenities and strong city-center walkability.
