Chicago Loft Apartments with Studio to 3 Bedroom Floor Plans

Lofts at River East offers studio through three-bedroom loft apartments inside a converted early-1900s warehouse at 445 E. Illinois Street in Streeterville. The building’s original brick walls, exposed wood beams, visible pipes, and high ceilings give each home genuine architectural character that cannot be replicated in a new high-rise.

Across 285 apartments and more than 74 floor-plan configurations, no single layout defines the building. Hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, in-home washers and dryers, and generous closets support daily life, while select homes offer additional storage and balconies. The result is a collection of distinctive Chicago lofts shaped by the building’s industrial past and updated for modern city living. View availability and floor plans.
