MDA Apartments
63 E Lake St, The Loop, Chicago 60601
MDA Apartments is a converted historic Loop building with a lot of character, from the hotel-style lobby with a library lounge to the local art and murals scattered throughout, and the amenities punch above their weight: a 24-hour fitness center, an outdoor heated pool with cabanas, and a sky club with a bar and lounge for entertaining. Units come with in-unit stackable washer and dryer, granite counters, wood-style flooring, and ceilings that run 9 to 12 feet in select layouts, some with Juliette balconies and real city views. You are a two-minute walk from Starbucks, three minutes from the Chicago Riverwalk, and steps from bars like Elephant and Castle (which is actually in the building), with ROOF on theWit a three-minute walk and Five Iron Golf about seven minutes away. The State/Lake train stop is a three-minute walk, and a Mariano's for full grocery runs is about 11 minutes away.
