Description

Perched on the 52nd floor of one of the Gold Coast's most premier and secure buildings, you will enjoy an awesome corner view, north on Lakeshore Drive with the lakefront as far as the eye can see and west to award-winning sunsets. Across the street from the Magnificent Mile, the Museum of Contemporary Art, a park, and blocks from Lake Michigan, this bright 2-bedroom, 2-bath unit offers an open and airy 1,900 sf of living space. The primary suite has been recently renovated with custom-made rain glass doors leading into a large bedroom with 2 walk-in closets. The primary bath includes Robern fixtures, a Toto toilet, and more than adequate storage space. The second bedroom, currently used as an exercise room, can be closed off and includes a large closet. The entryway as well as much of the unit has been furnished with a museum-quality hanging system for your artwork, and beautiful hardwood floors occupy the majority of the unit. The island kitchen has ample granite counter space, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, as well as stainless steel appliances. The building has an extraordinary team, including a concierge, door staff, as well as exceptional security. In addition, Olympia Center boasts world-class views of the city and air show from its 63rd-story deck, a glorious swimming pool and jacuzzi, as well as two separate workout rooms. This competitively priced unit has been appointed with everything one would need for the perfect city dwelling.

"I use busses for personal transportation and also use my own vehicle for work. Either way it is very easy and convenient to get around. I also walk for personal errands easily and conveniently. Everything you need is in walking distance and also it’s great just for a casual walk. Many parks, lakefront and riverwalk access make it a perfect location!! Best neighborhood in Chicago!"

"This neighborhood is quiet, by the lake ... but also very close to the shops and restaurants around Michigan Avenue. If you like convenience and don’t mind it feeling a bit like a business and tourist district, it’s a great place to live. "

"Not a ton of dogs to be seen when you’re closer to Michigan Ave, but a lot when you’re closer to the lake. Most owners pick up after their animals and are open to you petting them as well."

"Not neighborly at all. Kinda touristy and annoying at times. Nice to be close to Michigan Ave and the lake, also the loop and public transportation. This is a lively neighborhood but very transient. Restaurants are decent. "

"Pet friendly neighborhood, friendly people park and beach close by just pick up after your pet and it’s all good. You will pay extra for your dog in most apartments but that’s expected some people also have to use the back entrance or exit to take the dog out instead of the front which could be inconvenient sometimes "
