"On the Move....again...sort of"

When my partner John and I move to Chicago, I had roughly about three days to pound the pavement with two agents and find a place. The housing Gods shined on us and we landed in this great loft in west Lincoln Park, top floor, complete view of downtown, and pretty convenient to most everything.

We got the news last week that our owner wants to sell. After the shock wore off, we hit all the web sites looking for another place. Again, we were very fortunate. Saturday of this past week we saw a complete "walk-up" renovation with two bedrooms, two full baths, everything stainless and granite (that should be)and brand new hardwood floors ready for move-in October 1 in the North Halsted area of Lakeview.

Initially it was our intention to find a place in this part of town, but nothing really appealed to us. It will be great to live on a tree-lined street between Halsted and Broadway in walking distance to so many great places and shops. The street is quiet and has more of a "neighborhood" feel.

It is a work in progress, sort of like my life. I have included some pictures of the latest work. I will post some completed photos once we move in. Time to pack.
