August 28, 2009 – With the Lofts At Roosevelt Collection switching to rental, it might be a good time to take a look at some other Chicago lofts that are for rent. Bold L&H Lofts on 2620 West Washington is a new LEED Silver certified loft conversion of the historic six story building at that location. The building is actually listed on the National Register of Historic Places as it used to be the L&H Stove Company, and the traditional look of the low-rise is obvious. Bold Developments converted the building to 68 rental apartments plus 3,400 square feet of retail space and kept the exterior terra-cotta facade and terrazzo floors in the entry and on the ground floor.

True loft features include solid concrete floors, walls and ceilings, exposed brick and exposed wiring and ductwork. The one to two bedroom units vary in size from 707 to 1,266 square feet, have 11′ 6″ ceilings and 7′x15′ windows. Each apartment has a security system, washer/dryer hook-up, individual hot water heaters, oak or maple kitchen cabinets, granite counter tops, refrigerator, stove, microwave and dishwasher plus ceramic tile in the baths.

The Bold L&H Lofts building amenities include a 1,600 square foot green roof top deck with BBQ area and dog run, elevator access to the roof, bike storage, laundry room on the first floor, 68 indoor parking spaces for autos and 32 motorcycle spaces, which is kind of unique.

The one bedroom lofts at this Chicago real estate development are all rented, but there are about eight two bedroom units still available. The developer is also offering as an incentive six months free parking or a washer/dryer depending on the unit you rent. Rents on the two bedroom lofts had been running $1,355 to $1,425 but have been lowered to $1,250 to $1,395. Parking for a car is $95 per month and for a motorcycle or scooter it’s $25.

Whether you’re looking to rent or buy, there are quite a few choices out there when it comes to Chicago Lofts.
