Extraordinary price drop in the Donohue Building, the home of real big city loft living. . 14 ft concrete ceilings, concrete columns & floors, brick walls, huge west windows flooded with sunshine overlooking the fabled Dearborn Station/Printer's Row neighborhood: this is the live/work space you've been seeking. The location just doesn't get any better. With a whopping Walk Score of 97 & a Transit Score of 100, this is the true center of the city. The protected bike path through the Loop to River North starts right out front, the street is lined with shops, restaurants & taverns & it's an easy walk or roll to the Loop, lakefront parks & beaches & museums. On the 2nd floor, it would be a great place to work with a tree top view of the street. Parking available all around, but you might opt out to hop the buses or train right outside. Printer's Row is that rare peaceful neighborhood in the middle of the bustle of the city. Tree lined & friendly, you'll feel at home upon arrival.

Public facts and zoning for 727 S Dearborn St Unit 212W
SW corner unit. A building is under construction that will be right up against the entire south side of this unit. Existing south-facing windows will either be bricked up or filled with an artificial light box and the view of Dearborn Station will be no more. This unit currently has 1 lofted bedroom at best and a very unique configuration. It feels like the listed square footage includes the lofted office/bedroom space. One bathroom has been fairly recently updated. There is loads of potential to re conceptualize this space and make is truly special.
