1001 South State - Chicago, IL

Selecting images to post on the blog can be difficult when there are too many great options. Our 1001 South State project in Chicago, IL highlights this dilemma. 1001 South State, the newest high-rise to grace the Chicago highline, is a 40-story residential tower designed by Solomon Cordwell Buenz and built by Walsh Construction.

This apartment building holds all the amenities: from swimming pools and work out facilities to a bike repair room and dog run. Expansive green spaces on the 5th floor make the outdoor experience accessible, while pool and grill areas make communal living convenient yet private. The glass-covered exterior curves and angles, providing countless views of the city from every possible position to apartment residents. It seemed like every space we photographed yielded an entirely fresh perspective of the Chicago Skyline or Lake Michigan.

Located in the South Loop, one of Chicago’s fastest growing neighborhoods, 1001 South State also includes 7,800 square footage of street-level retail space. Towering above its surroundings, this breathtaking building can be seen from virtually all angles throughout the South Loop, establishing it as a main view throughout the neighborhood. 

The image above is an example of a two-bedroom apartment facing southwest with fantastic views of Lake Michigan.
