About This Home

A unique opportunity to customize a stunning home for today's lifestyle in one of Benjamin Marshall's classic pre-war co-ops: The Drake Tower. Located steps to Michigan Avenue on historic East Lake Shore Drive, the Drake Tower offers residents white glove service and indoor access to Marshall's legendary Drake Hotel. Residence 702 is a half floor of 3,150 square feet with oversized windows fronting a verdant park and the lake. There are a few creative options to reconfigure the current floor plan. One concept by Inspired Interiors features two ensuite bedrooms, a third bedroom or family room with lakefront views, an open kitchen and a butler's pantry with a wine refrigerator, and a laundry room. Architectural details that will enhance any design are the 9'6" ceiling height, a wood or gas burning fireplace with a period mantle, and tall French doors. On-site garage parking.
