RENTAL TOWNHOMES NOW COMPLETE AT PORTE IN CHICAGO'S WEST LOOP

Lendlease and The John Buck Company, together with partner Intercontinental Real Estate Corporation, announced the completion of the townhome residences at Porte, a two-tower, mixed-use development at 855 W. Madison Street in Chicago’s West Loop.

Featuring private entrances along Peoria and Monroe streets, the two-story, two-bedroom rental townhomes range in size from 1,470 to 2,037 square feet. Each townhome features 2.5 baths, a terrace at ground level and balcony on the second floor, as well as reserved parking. Residents also enjoy access to dual amenity suites housed across Porte’s two towers.

“Rental townhomes are a rare offering in the downtown apartment market and especially in the West Loop, which is why we wanted to offer them as an alternative to the existing for-sale inventory in the neighborhood,” said Ted Weldon, executive general manager of development for Lendlease’s Chicago office. “These floor plans offer the space and privacy of a typical townhome while allowing residents to maintain the flexibility and amenities associated with the rental lifestyle.”

Designed by GREC Architects, Porte spans a full city block bordered by Madison Street to the north, Monroe Street to the south, Peoria Street to the west and Green Street to the east. It features a total of 586 residences, including a pair of 17-story apartment towers, each with its own lobby, amenity suite and unit finish package.
