Inside Glimpse of One Bennett Place
LUXURY! High-quality materials and thoughtful design!
Rents in the newly opened Streeterville tower range from $3,705 to $18,500 per month.
Chicago’s current building boom has delivered dozens of high-end rental buildings over the past five years, but few so far rival One Bennett Park when it comes to pushing the upper edge of the luxury envelope.
Monthly rents at One Bennett Park command a unsurprising premium. According to Related, pricing currently starts at $3,705 per month for one-bedrooms, $4,795 per month for two-bedrooms, $7,995 per month for three-bedrooms, and a jaw-dropping $18,500 per month for one of the four-bedroom penthouse units. One of the two-bedroom model units pictured above falls somewhere in the middle at around $6,050 per month.

Luxury Apartments Come to Uptown
1500 new apartments, some of them luxury, are coming to Uptown! Bringing hundreds of new residents to the area!
Located at 4337 N. Hazel St. and originally built in 1901, the three-story brick building is being renovated by Chicago-based Arbor Investment Management LLC, which has retained Spaces as the exclusive leasing brokerage. A decorated model is now available for tour, with first move-ins scheduled for May.
“When this property was built in 1901, it was one of the first luxury apartment buildings in Buena Park, so it’s a landmark within the neighborhood that has been reimagined for a new generation of renters,” said Bentley Phillips, founder Spaces Real Estate. “The building’s vintage charm, modern floor plans and amenities, and walkable location near the lakefront make Hazel Place a true standout in the North Side rental market.”
Hazel Place offers two- and three-bedroom floor plans – each with two or 2½ baths – ranging in size from 924 to 1,358 square feet and priced from $2,625 per month. Finishes include red oak hardwood flooring; modern kitchens with two-tone cabinetry, quartz countertops, tile backsplashes and stainless steel appliances; baths with sleek subway tile tub/shower surrounds; and bedrooms with spacious walk-in closets. Every residence also includes keyless smartphone-ready entry, smart lighting
controls, Nest thermostats and full Amazon Echo integration, as well as in-unit laundry.
Other big projects in the neighborhood include 811 Montrose with 373 apartments.
Stewart School Lofts with 64 apartments.
5050 Broadway will bring over 700 apartments!
975 Wilson and Sheridan will build about 140 more apartments!
A total of 4 new buildings are breaking this year!

Chicago HOT Restaurants 2018
SOOOOOO many restaurants to choose from in Chicago! There is no way to keep up!
In December, Chicago Mag speculated, “Is Chicago’s dining boom over?
Staff shortages, massive competition, rising rents: The day of reckoning is coming.”
The article reveals, When Rob Katz and Kevin Boehm opened their flagship Lincoln Park restaurant Boka 14 years ago, more than 600 people lined up around the block looking for jobs. How times have changed. These days, when the duo launches a new place, “you put out an ad, you might get 10 people,” Katz says. “What was once a very fertile ground for talent is not any longer. People are fighting just to put a staff together.”
Such is life in the restaurant bubble.
Every month the HOT LIST changes! Yesterday a new list of hot spots came out.
I am so happy to see the Pump Room come back! (Above)
I do agree, how can all of the restaurants survive? This is not New York.
Chicago’s Most Iconic Buildings
Chicago Skyline
Chicago has some amazing examples of truly wonderful architecture! And the building never seems to stop! There are currently 33 cranes in Chicago working on new projects!
The buildings and architecture of Chicago have influenced and reflected the history of American architecture. The built [constructed] environment of Chicago is reflective of the city’s history and multicultural heritage, featuring prominent buildings in a variety of styles by many important architects. Since most structures within the downtown area were destroyed by the Great Chicago Fire in 1871 (the most famous exception being the Water Tower) Chicago buildings are noted for their originality rather than their antiquity.
Chicago is world-famous for its plethora of unique architectural styles, from Chicago Bungalows and Two-Flats to the grand Graystones along Logan Boulevard and Lawndale, from the skyscrapers of the Loop as well as a wealth of sacred architecture such as the city’s ornate “Polish Cathedrals”.
CURBED recently compiled a list of 27 that everyone in Chicago should know about.
Credited for inventing the skyscraper, Chicago and its lasting mark in the world of architecture is internationally renown. The city has an abundance of remarkable structures and no shortage of residents and tourists eager to learn their histories.
Think about…what top 5 come to mind???
