River North's Coolest New Address Is Here: The Former Salesforce Tower Just Became 153 Luxury Apartments at 111 Point

By Socialhood News · Il/Chicago/Near North · June 21, 2026

Near North neighbors, a landmark building in the heart of your neighborhood has just been reborn — and it's a stunning example of what smart city living looks like in 2026. The former Salesforce Chicago headquarters at 111 W. Illinois St. has been transformed into 111 Point, a brand-new luxury apartment community with 153 modern residences now open for leasing.

Developed by WindWave Real Estate and Path Construction, the $64 million office-to-residential conversion keeps beloved ground-floor tenants Roka Akor and Tarry Coffee right where they belong, while filling floors five through ten with beautifully designed apartments. Think high-end Kohler fixtures, in-unit laundry, smart thermostats, and oversized windows with sweeping city skyline views — plus two terraces, a yoga studio, and even a podcasting studio in the co-working lounge. Rents start around $2,300, with studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms available. As Path Construction's Jack Tse put it, "You can live in the heart of Chicago, but you're in a sanctuary."

For a neighborhood already buzzing with new restaurants and summer festivals, 111 Point adds an exciting new housing option right in your backyard — and it's steps from the Brown, Purple, and Red Line CTA stops.
