Newsletter from Chicago

Greetings from the windy city - Chicago, Illinois! Sophisticated contemporary and well preserved traditional architecture can be found everywhere in downtown Chicago.

Last Winter, the Chicago Tribune featured one of the many condo conversions, The Metropolitan Tower – 'A Family Legacy To Preserve The City's Architectural Gems'.

Traditional Condo - Metropolitan Tower is located on Chicago's lakefront. Unlike Toronto, the city protected the lake view in perpetuity. Not only the lake and park view are stunning, the neighborhood is impeccable. The building is located at the historic stretch of Michigan Avenue, which is at the epicenter of Chicago's best culture and entertainment.

Museums, theatres, the Symphony, Millennium Park and the Art Institute are just at the proximity. I would say it is almost like our Yorkville relocated to the lakefront (except the lakefront is a lot easier to access).

The maintenance fee and property tax are quite comparable to what we pay in Toronto. The 750 sq ft one bedroom is starting from $299,900 to half a million US dollar depending on the view and floorplan.

Contemporary Condo - Aqua Lakeshore East building is slated to climb eighty-seven stories into the Chicago skyline. The lower floors, from floor fifty-five down are destined to be where the 476 rental living spaces and the 210 hotel rooms will be housed. The remaining 263 condo living units and penthouse suites will fill up the floors from 55 up.
