Iconic Chicago Duplex Has Dramatic East Views, 1920s Details and Five-Star Perks

This stunning, three-bedroom, two-floor duplex at Tribune Tower Residences commands majestic views of the city skyline, the Chicago River and even the Chicago Harbor Lighthouse. Gorgeously appointed, the one-of-a-kind home centers around a breathtaking living/dining great room with soaring 18-foot ceilings, a private balcony, a fireplace, a service bar with built-in wine storage and multiple pairs of window-topped French doors surrounded by the building’s exquisite dimensional limestone tracery.
