While reviewing 2011 Lakeview condo sales statistics I ranked the median sale price for the pricier buildings. Only condo buildings that had at least 2 sales recorded in Chicago’s multiple listing service (MRED) that closed in 2011 were included in the rankings. Only listed sales were used in determining median sale price for a building.
Most of the top 10 Lakeview condos were located between Belmont and Addison. Most of them were also east of Sheffield. The most expensive building in Lakeview in 2011 was 443 W Aldine, a vintage building just west of Lake Shore Drive that was renovated and sold as condos.
