I have loved nearly everything about living here. The views are just tremendous in every direction but I particularly enjoy looking out and being able to read the time from the Wrigley Clock tower, and viewing the details of the Neo Classical ornamentation of the Jeweler’s, and London Guarantee Buildings across the river, and the Neo-Gothic ornamentation of the Chicago Tribune building across Michigan Ave. I like being on the water, i.e. the river and seeing the lake. We love the fact that our views will always be protected.

The location is perfect for walking to the loop and theaters and also north down Michigan Ave for shopping, and dining.  We always feel safe here even walking home from the theater or dinner late at night. Neither the views nor the location can be beat but the real pleasure is that all the rooms are really large. We have a large eat in kitchen, but also a large dining room for entertaining. My husband and I each have our own spacious offices. The living room is very large with space for my grand piano and the building is so quiet that my playing does not disturb any of our neighbors, in fact the piano can hardly be heard from the bedrooms when the doors are closed. The two bedrooms are nice sized and the master bath is gigantic.We have a true laundry room with cupboards and a laundry sink. I like the fact that we have two entrances, one to the kitchen and one to the the living room. We have great interior gallery space for artwork and yet the entire exterior is windows allowing for beautiful views and lots of light in every room. I would never have thought that I would so enjoy having a dedicated bar in the living room but I do. I like love my sub zero refrigerators the large one  in the kitchen and the small one in the bar.

A real pleasure in living in this apt is the quality and attention to detail of every element, from the inlaid granite floors and the solid inlaid pear wood interior doors to the pull out drawers located in the kitchen and bar areas.
As far as the building is concerned it is not pretentious but it is very well sound proofed between floors and between apts. We have never been able to hear a noise from a neighbor’s apt. which is a blessing in a high rise building. The building has a very nice gym and lap pool on the third floor and the staff is very nice and helpful.

In short we love the location, the views, the space and the fact that the condo is not your typical vanilla box.
