Cinema Lofts

About Cinema Lofts

These elegant lofts are named for their location on the site of the once-popular Belmont Theatre, which has since been converted into a mixed-use, retail and residential building. In the 1920s, the 6-corner intersection of Belmont, Lincoln and Ashland avenues was the heart of the popular Lakeview neighborhood, and it was home to the city's most stylish movie houses, the Belmont.

Although it is just one of the condo developments in Lakeview, the Cinema Lofts are a favorite among the most sought-after. Situated at 1635 W. Belmont Ave, these beautifully-crafted units provide quality construction, spacious layouts and all the modern amenities you need to live in comfort. The various floorplans cater to single residents and families alike with as few as 1 bedrooms, or as many as 3 separate sleeping spaces to house the whole crew-including Fido and Fluffy, since the building has a "pets allowed" policy.
