We were recently contacted by a condo owner at 540 N Lake Shore Drive in Streeterville. We quickly recognized the address as a vintage loft conversion. Yes, it's true. In this dense luxury high-rise neighborhood -where new construction seems to have no end in sight- is a unique timber loft
property. If that is your style, the location at 540 North Lake Shore
Drive can't be overlooked.
