Downtown Chicago Condos, Lofts, High-rises, and Unique Homes

People from all walks of life are migrating to the urban lofts, condos, and single family homes in “The Loop” or Downtown Chicago. Why? What is it about the city makes living in Downtown Chicago so attractive?

Mike Doyle believes that living in Downtown Chicago is “the Good Life”. He, like so many other Downtowners in the nation, has a hard time putting his finger on exactly why.  Here is his attempt:

During their Windy City visit last week, Seattle’s coolest couple, Kasey and John, waxed giddily about the fun and frolic of my downtown Chicago neighborhood.

Their reaction stands in stark contrast to the one I normally get from native Chicagoans when I tell them I live downtown. It’s almost like telling a New Yorker you never ride the subway. The response is always the same: no one’s stopping you from doing it, but why would you want the hassle?

Outer-neighborhood Chicagoans tend to think downtowners suffer through our central-city lives. How on earth do we live without backyard barbecues, front-door parking and a cricket on every window ledge? It’s hard to describe the devotion some of us feel for our high-rise Chicago ‘hood.
