1 bedroom for $115 in the Loop

[George K]

Today's dollars? About $1050.

It's condos now, and a 1 bedroom goes for anywhere from $210K to $369K for 750 square feet.

Signature building.

$1050 is pretty low for a 1 bedroom these days…

Especially in a landmark building in Chicago with great views.

That's a one room, not a one bedroom. Still pretty good for the prime location and landmark.

After all the unionized janitors became wealthy, they turned to philanthropic architectural monuments, to give a sense of meaning to their lives of idle privilege.
