New Chi Apt Preview

I've finally gotten around to uploading a few pics of my new apartment in Chicago. Take in the sights of this new, empty place before Winnie and I clutter it all up!

After taking my sweet old time to make a decision, I settled on a one-bedroom, one-bathroom condo near Clark and Division, just a wee bit north of the city. In fact, it's still technically Chicago, but I'm not considered downtown. I'm not really sure where the condo is considered to be; Gold Coast, Old Towne, etc. Regardless, I'm happy with the location, just 4-5 blocks to the beach, and nearby to shops, parks, and of course, Starbucks. And, I'm even within walking distance to Barnes & Noble, which is just perfect!

The condo was completely gutted and refinished; here's a link to a few other pics that i've posted on Flickr. The kitched is equipped with stainless steel appliances and has nice granite countertops, hardwod floors throughout (except the bedroom that has berber carpet). The nice touch is the crown moulding and the track lighting. The views are prety neat too, and I can see the Hancock building to my right, and lake views to my left.

All in all I have to say that I'm pretty excited about my new place, and looking forward to making Chicago my new home!
