high rise condos. The development
of the south Loop began with
the conversion of publisher
warehouses in printers tow into
lofts followed by the construction
of condos, town homes and single

off in the late 90’s has

continued with new buildings
being built as far south as
Cermak. As the neighborhood
grows area amenities have also
grown as grocery stores, wine
bars, retail, light life and
fine dinning continuing to follow

The area’s development
has been fuelled by its prime
location just south of downtown.
