About this property
High-Rise Living Near the Medical District
The Illinois Medical District surrounds this 22-story tower, completed in 2022 with 279 units stacked above a parking garage — a practical trade in an area where street parking disappears fast. Transit and bike scores both run into the 80s and 90s, putting the district's hospitals, the Loop, and the Near West Side all within easy reach without a car. The fitness center is built for serious use rather than a token treadmill room, and the pool adds a resort-style counterpoint to the clinical surroundings nearby. The building accepts both cats and dogs. The area carries a steady daytime energy that eases once hospital shifts change for the evening.
