Chicago's Tallest New Rental Tower Just Opened Its Doors: 400 Lake Shore Drive Is Now Leasing
By Socialhood News · Il/Chicago/Near North ·
Near North neighbors, your skyline just got a stunning new addition — and you can now actually live in it. The North Tower at 400 Lake Shore Drive, a soaring 72-story skyscraper standing 857 feet tall, officially began leasing this week, marking one of the most significant residential milestones the neighborhood has seen in years. With 635 apartments up for grabs, this architectural giant is poised to bring hundreds of new neighbors to the Near North lakefront community.
The tower is part of the broader 400 Lake Shore Drive development, one of the most ambitious mixed-use projects ever undertaken along Chicago's iconic shoreline. Its prime Near North address puts future residents within easy reach of the Magnificent Mile, Navy Pier, the Riverwalk, and the very same lakefront that will be packed with Air and Water Show fans this coming weekend. For anyone who has ever dreamed of waking up to sweeping Lake Michigan views from one of the city's tallest vantage points, this is the moment.
The launch of leasing at 400 Lake Shore Drive signals continued confidence in Near North as one of Chicago's most sought-after places to call home. Whether you're a longtime local curious about the new neighbors moving in, or you know someone on the hunt for a new place, this is a development worth watching closely.
