Matthew Jackson+FollowChicago’s prewar apartments: Charm vs. costVintage apartment lovers, Chicago’s lakefront is packed with prewar gems—think grand foyers, solid walls, and timeless Beaux Arts or Art Deco details. These homes offer serious space and character, but here’s the catch: monthly HOA fees can be sky-high, sometimes topping $6,000! While prices range from $315K to over $1.2M, many units linger on the market because of those hefty assessments. Still, if you crave historic charm and don’t mind trading open-concept trends for old-school elegance, these buildings might be your dream. Would you pay more for vintage style and amenities, or is modern living worth the trade-off? #RealEstate #ChicagoRealEstate #PrewarApartments00Share
