Property Description
Rare opportunity to own a truly iconic Chicago loft in the historic Donohue Building, widely recognized as one of the city's first industrial-to-residential conversions by legendary architect Harry Weese. Spanning nearly 3,000 square feet from Dearborn to Plymouth, this expansive concrete loft offers exceptional scale, character, and provenance-rumored to have been originally designed as Weese's own residence. Bathed in natural light from both east and west exposures, the home features soaring 10+ ft ceilings, oversized 7-ft windows with built-in seating, and the authentic architectural elements loft buyers seek-exposed columns, hardwood floors, and original structural detailing built to support the building's printing press history. The kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring an oversized island (plumbed for gas), and an impressive walk-in pantry offering exceptional storage rarely found in loft living. Adjacent to the kitchen, a stunning library/media room showcases a unique curved ceiling and terrazzo flooring, an unforgettable space perfect for movie nights, gatherings, or creative use. The private primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a spacious sitting area, an oversized dressing room lined with closets, and a well-appointed bath. Additional features include in-unit laundry, abundant storage throughout, and direct access to a freight elevator for easy move-in/out of large furnishings or artwork. Constructed in the building's concrete section, you'll benefit from substantial sound insulation, uncommon in loft buildings. Residents also enjoy access to the building's historic birdcage elevator, one of the few remaining in Chicago. Located in the heart of Printers Row, this home is surrounded by some of the city's most charming cafes, restaurants, bookstores, and the beloved weekly farmers market. Easy access to public transportation, major expressways, and the Loop makes this an unbeatable location for both lifestyle and convenience. Deeded garage parking available. This is more than a home, it's a piece of Chicago architectural history.
