About the Building

Chicago is rapidly becoming a destination for luxury condominiums, and the Astoria Tower at 8 E 9th St in the South Loop is setting the standard. This high-rise condo building, which is currently under construction and is expected to be completed in 2009, will contain 241 separate units that will be spread out over 30 stories. In addition to the amenities provided in the individual units, the building will feature a 12,000 square foot spa on the tenth floor, as well as deeded indoor parking. At its completion, this fashionable development in South Loop promises to be one of the most desirable places to live in Chicago.

The units in this building provide a range of layouts that range from 1 to 3 bedrooms. Depending on the size of the property, you can expect to pay anywhere from $320,900 to $363,100 for a place in this South Loop residence. The larger units offer 840 square feet of living space while the smaller ones are 782 square feet in area. Kitchens are typically 231 square feet, which should provide plenty of counter space to mass produce lunches for kids to take to school, prepare dinner for the family, or assemble a masterful spread of finger-foods for the next impromptu dinner party that’s thrown your way. And, don't worry about where everyone is going to sit, with 372 square-foot living rooms and 315 square-foot dining rooms, you can treat your guests to a formal affair at the dinner table, or let them hangout in front of the TV.

Ample living space or not, sometimes the most crucial factor in purchasing a new home is whether your four-legged family member is welcome in the building or not. Well, this is one residential building that happens to be pet friendly, so Fluffy and Fido can make the move, too.
