What $2,100/Month Rented in Printer’s Row

This residence combines historic architectural character with practical modern updates.

The open living and dining area features soaring ceilings and oversized windows, helping the one-bedroom layout feel bright and spacious.

Recent improvements included fresh paint, new stainless steel appliances and a renovated bathroom, while in-unit laundry adds an important convenience for downtown living.

Historic Downtown Living at The Manhattan

The residence is located in The Manhattan Building at 431 S Dearborn St, a landmark property closely associated with Chicago’s early skyscraper history. The building’s historic character gives renters an alternative to the newer glass high-rises found throughout downtown.

That setting is one of the defining advantages of Printer’s Row. Residents can live among historic architecture while remaining close to the Loop, South Loop and many of downtown Chicago’s major destinations.

Why Printer’s Row Appeals to Downtown Renters
