The Loop, Chicago
A Chicago, IL neighborhood: what the housing is, what is nearby, and what has closed there.
Chicago central business district is bounded by the Chicago River to the north and west, Lake Michigan to the east, and Roosevelt Road to the south. Housing stock consists of mid-rise and high-rise condominiums and converted historic commercial towers. The area functions as the primary junction for the CTA elevated train network.
Homes in The Loop
The housing inventory is comprised of high-rise condominium buildings and converted historic office towers dating from the late nineteenth century to recent construction. Residences range from studios to multistory units within a dense urban grid, with parking typically located in integrated interior parking decks.
The Loop sits inside Chicago, so the Chicago market report is the right read on prices and pace; the figures beside this are the town's, not the neighborhood's.
