A rare opportunity at iconic 680 North Lake Shore Drive! For the first time in over a year, one of the building's coveted one-bedroom, 11/2-bath residences is available! Offering 1,475 square feet of beautifully proportioned living space, Residence 1223 features tall ceilings, striking west-facing city views from both the expansive great room and oversized bedroom, and wonderful architectural character throughout. The evolving Northwestern Medicine campus, with its planned landscaped green spaces and setback terraces, adds another dimension to the compelling daytime and evening cityscape.
