Perched atop The Fairbanks at Cityfront Plaza, one of Streeterville's most sought-after full-service residences, this sun-filled corner penthouse offers a rare combination of sophistication, comfort, and panoramic city views. Spanning 1,673 square feet, this highly upgraded three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass, showcasing breathtaking views of the Chicago River, Lake Michigan, Tribune Tower, Wrigley Building, and the city's iconic skyline from nearly every room. Thoughtfully designed for both entertaining and everyday living, the expansive open-concept floor plan is enhanced by soaring 10-foot ceilings, rich hardwood flooring throughout, and an abundance of natural light.

The living and dining areas open directly to a private balcony, seamlessly extending the living experience outdoors and providing a spectacular backdrop for morning coffee, evening cocktails, and Chicago's dazzling skyline. Privately positioned within the residence, the primary suite serves as a serene sanctuary above the city, complete with a spacious walk-in closet and a spa-inspired marble bath featuring dual vanities, a deep soaking tub, and an oversized glass-enclosed shower. A private balcony extends directly from the suite, creating an intimate outdoor retreat framed by sweeping skyline and lake views. Two additional bedrooms and a flexible home office alcove provide exceptional versatility for guests, family, or today's evolving lifestyle. Residents of The Fairbanks enjoy an impressive collection of amenities, including 24-hour door staff, an outdoor pool and sundeck, fitness center, resident lounge, business center, movie theater, and more.
