    Overview

    This unique three-parcel portfolio is located along the North Branch of the Chicago River, adjacent to the Lincoln Yards development. The assembly includes a raw artist studio with approximately 7,200 square feet over two levels, a timber loft residence with a courtyard and indoor/outdoor spaces, and a 6,000 square foot timber warehouse. The parcels can function separately or collectively. The warehouse, located at 1686 N Ada, spans roughly 100' x 60' with ceiling heights ranging from 14-16'. It features multiple skylights and a large overhead door opening onto Ada Street. The residence at 1684 N Ada, a converted factory, offers approximately 3,500 square feet of live/work space. It is currently configured as a one-bedroom, two-bathroom home with open living spaces and a large gallery that opens to the courtyard. The gallery could be converted into additional bedrooms. The building underwent a complete renovation approximately 15 years ago, including radiant heated floors, a tear-off roof, new steel windows and doors, and the addition of outdoor space. It includes parking for 2+ cars in the indoor garage and several more in the private courtyard. The raw studio space at 1682 N Ada offers over 7,000 square feet and connects the other two parcels. It could be a continuation of the residence or support the warehouse with bathrooms, a kitchen, or a bar. The M3-3 zoning allows for a variety of uses and additional FAR and height. The residence at 1686 is currently used as an event space hosting weddings, parties, and photo shoots with bookings through October 2025. The location provides abundant nearby parking and easy highway and downtown access. Several music venues are nearby, including The Salt Shed, Outset, and The Hideout. The Lincoln Yards development across the street will bring thousands of residential and office spaces to the area, along with infrastructure improvements like parks and a continuation of the 606 trail.
