This mixed-use renovation in West Town gave a classic Chicago building new purpose as a modern, sustainable live-work space. We worked with our clients from the start, first helping them find the right property, and then renovating it from the ground up.

Our clients weren’t just looking for a building—they were looking for a project with a clear purpose. They wanted to create a sustainable residence above a street-level commercial space that could serve as a neighborhood hub. Acting as their real estate broker, we toured several properties together before finding the perfect, dilapidated building. A neglected mixed-use property with a hair salon on the first floor and an apartment above that had seen better days.
