Property Description

This nearly 3,000-square-foot concrete/timber loft in the historic Donohue Building offers exceptional scale, architectural character, and an unbeatable Printers Row location. Designed by legendary architect Harry Weese, the building is recognized as one of Chicago's pioneering industrial-to-residential conversions. Spanning from Dearborn to Plymouth, the home features east- and west-facing exposures, 10+ foot ceilings, oversized seven-foot windows with built-in seating, newly refinished hardwood floors, and original structural details reflecting the building's printing-press history. A generous separate study provides an ideal work-from-home space. The expansive kitchen is anchored by an oversized quartz island and impressive walk-in pantry. The family room features a unique curved ceiling and terrazzo flooring. The spacious primary suite includes a sitting area, oversized dressing room, and bath. Additional features include in-unit laundry, abundant storage, freight elevator access, and exceptional sound insulation from the concrete construction. The well-managed association has strong reserves, adding peace of mind and long-term value. Residents also enjoy the building's historic birdcage elevator, one of the few remaining in Chicago. Steps from Printers Row's cafes, restaurants, bookstores, and weekly farmers' market, with easy access to transportation, expressways, and the Loop. Deeded garage parking is available for an additional $35K.

Explore Printers Row

A quiet, chic urban area with zero pretentiousness, Printers Row has seen new lofts, condos, bars, restaurants and shops pop up over the years, yet nothing seems to take away from the literary vibe that was and will always beat the heart of this historic Chicago neighborhood. As you might imagine, book dealers are abundant in this section of town. Rare works, university texts, literary classics and everything in between can be found at these long-established storefronts that epitomize the underlying foothold of Printers Row. Each year, shop owners and residents take it up a notch when the annual book fair closes off the neighborhood streets to welcome booksellers, small presses and literary organizations from across the country.
