About Windermere House
Originally one of Chicago's most luxurious 1920's apartment hotels, Windermere House was designed to be the most sophisticated and elegant residence of its day. Today, it remains a testament to that vision. Carefully preserved and restored original plaster, wood, terrazzo, terra cotta, brass, copper and bronze details of French and Italian Renaissance styles combine with a myriad of modern amenities to create a remarkable coalescence of contemporary living in a timelessly refined atmosphere. Overlooking Jackson Park, it's ideally located for easy access and within walking distance from the University of Chicago, restaurants and shopping.
Illinois Central, located between Millennium Station and 63rd Street Station, is a rail corridor and lakefront-adjacent Chicago neighborhood with elevated tracks and station platforms. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Museum Campus rail approaches near Roosevelt Road, where passing Metra trains, pedestrian paths, and skyline views set a brisk, infrastructural tone. Architectural identity leans utilitarian—steel viaducts, embankments, and long sightlines that frame the lakefront parks. The corridor stitches together commuter routines with cultural stops, linking downtown edges to South Side lakefront destinations. Sound and motion define the streetscape, with bridges and underpasses creating distinct pockets of light and shade.
