Estimated unit mix — Assessor + historical MLS
113 units on Cook County Assessor records.
Estimate: each Assessor unit is matched to its unit line, and the line's bedroom count comes from this building's MLS records (19 units from their own records, 94 from units in the same line). Units without enough evidence stay Unknown. Not a verified floor-plan inventory.
| Type | Units (est.) | Median sale price | Median rent | Sales · leases, 24 mo | Near North median rent | Near North price / sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 bed | 45 | too few | too few | 6 · 0 | $3,800 | $392 |
| 3+ bed | 68 | $1,350,000 | too few | 9 · 0 | $6,925 | $480 |
This building's medians are shown only with at least 8 records of that type in 24 months. The Near North columns are neighborhood medians for the same unit type, for reference — not figures for this building.
Every line, every floor
One cell per unit on Cook County Assessor records, by unit line (columns) and floor (rows). Column heads: the line's typical size and the direction its listings usually face.
Each line shows the unit type most of its units have (an estimate; see “Unit types”), and a line's size and exposure only when at least 3 of its units have records; individual units are not marked. Exposure is the direction most of a line's MLS listings report. Across Near North towers, each floor up adds about +0.29% to price per sq ft within the same line (this building alone has too few comparable sales). Line-by-line price premiums are not shown yet: too few sales per line.
What a unit costs to hold, rent against price, and higher floors
Estimates from this building's own sales and leases.
A typical unit, every month
| Type | Typical size | HOA dues / mo | Property tax / yr | Dues + tax / mo |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3+ bed | 2,970 sq ft | $3,034 | — | — |
Typical size: the type's median price over its price per sq ft (the building's, where the type has too few records), so an estimate. Dues: the type's median in this building's sales. Property tax: this building's tax rate per sq ft for units without exemptions, times the size; owner-occupants with a homeowner exemption usually pay less. Mortgage, insurance and utilities are not included. Try your own numbers in the calculator below.
