Happy St. Patrick's Day


Happy St. Patrick's Day! Over the weekend the city pulled their annual prank of pouring buckets of dye into the Chicago River to turn it Emerald City green. Every year I tell myself that I'm going to go to the parade, and then every year it's just a little bit too cold for me to stand it. But, nonetheless, I did have a chance to toast my Irish heritage with a Guinness or two over the weekend - Cheers & Happy St. Patrick's Day to all!

Chic & Sleek - 758 N. Larrabee #401



This is a beautiful new listing at One River Place, 758 N. Larrabee. It's a 2 bed/2 bath unit with 1800 sq. ft. of living space and a balcony on the Chicago River.

One River Place is a unique building in that it used to be one of the Montgomery Ward buildings back in the day; it was converted to condos in 2002. Because it's an older building, it's made of concrete and has many of the orginal details, such as concrete pillars and ceilings. This also makes for a very quiet building; you'd never know that you had neighbors here.

Unit #401 is new on the market for $654,000 which includes a deeded garage parking spot. For more photos, shoot me an email.
