Tribune Tower Condos: Q1 2026 Sales and What the Market Is Telling Us
Tribune Tower is getting close to a point that I think matters quite a bit for the building long term, which is the near sellout of the remaining developer inventory.
That changes the conversation.
For the last several years, part of the challenge in reading Tribune Tower has been separating true market demand from developer pricing and release strategy. As more of that inventory gets absorbed, the building starts to trade more like a true resale market, and that’s when pricing becomes a lot more telling.
Q1 was a good example of that. There was strong resale activity, and when you pair the closed sales with what’s currently active and pending, you start to see where buyers are actually stepping in.

What Stands Out
The strongest part of the market right now is clearly under $2M.
That’s where you’re seeing the most consistent activity, both in closed sales and in pending deals. More importantly, those units are moving quickly when they’re priced right.
I’m seeing it firsthand. I currently have two units under contract with new buyers in the building, and they’re genuinely excited to be here. It’s a great building, and that demand is very real.
I also have a 2 bed sale in progress representing the seller, which lines up with what the data is showing. That part of the market is active, and buyers understand the value there.
Once you move above that range, things become more selective.
There’s still demand for larger units, but buyers are paying close attention to layout, finishes, floor, and exposure. At that level, they’re not just buying the building, they’re buying the specific unit, and the differences matter.
At the same time, you’re seeing inventory push higher, including listings well above the most recent closed sales. Some of those will trade, especially if the product is strong enough, but buyers at that level tend to be patient and very aware of their options.
What This Means
Tribune Tower is starting to behave like a true resale building.
That’s where the market gets more honest.
- 1 and 2 bed units under $2M are moving and feel the most liquid
- Larger units are still trading, but require more precise positioning
- Buyers are engaged, but they’re making more deliberate decisions
Final Thought
The most interesting part of this quarter isn’t just the sales themselves, it’s what they represent.
The building is transitioning into a resale-driven market, and you’re starting to see exactly where demand is strongest and where pricing needs to be dialed in.
Right now, that strength is clearly under $2M.
