Luxury and refinement are the norm in the Gold Coast. Mostly residential area, this neighborhood has more prestigious addresses than any other place in Chicago.
The brownstones and greystones on historic streets like Astor, Goethe and Bellevue are highly coveted by luxury buyers for their charm, elegance and space. The predominant architectural styles reflect the neighborhood’s late 19th century beginnings and include Georgian Revival, Queen Anne, and Richardson Romanesque.
Lavish mid-rise and high-rise condos are more prevalent. They are largely composed of converted vintage homes and buildings, condos and co-ops built in the ‘60s and ‘70s, and a few recently constructed high-rises such as the 25-story 4 East Elm Condos.
High-rise condos along Lake Shore Drive (also considered part of the Gold Coast) are prestigious waterfront properties that are sought out by the most discriminating luxury buyers in the world.
