Tribune Tower
Some addresses are simply locations. Others are landmarks. For nearly a century, Tribune Tower has defined Chicago’s skyline and stood as a testament to the city’s architectural and cultural heritage. Today, this neo-Gothic icon at 435 N Michigan Avenue has been transformed into Tribune Tower Residences—offering the chance to live inside a piece of history while enjoying the finest in modern luxury.
The Tribune Tower Residences feature 162 condominiums, from one-bedroom homes to expansive penthouses with private terraces and sweeping city views. While the building’s limestone façade, intricate detailing, and embedded fragments of historic monuments remain untouched, the interiors offer contemporary sophistication.
Residences are designed for both elegance and comfort, with wide-plank European oak floors, soaring ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows framing panoramic views of the Chicago River, Michigan Avenue, and Lake Michigan. Kitchens feature custom cabinetry, quartzite countertops, and top-tier appliances. Primary suites offer spa-inspired baths with natural stone, heated floors, and freestanding soaking tubs. Select homes include private terraces—an extraordinary rarity in a historic high-rise.
Life at Tribune Tower is defined by its five-star service and thoughtfully curated amenities, including:
Indoor lap pool and spa set within the tower’s historic architecture
Expansive fitness center with private training areas and a golf simulator
Rooftop terrace with panoramic lake and skyline views, complete with fire pits and lounge seating
Private residents’ club and entertainment suite for hosting guests
Landscaped private courtyard offering a quiet retreat from Michigan Avenue
24-hour door staff, concierge service, and valet parking
