Welcome to 2008 S. Wabash Ave
South Loop
Bordered by Lake Michigan and the Chicago River, South Loop is not only one of Chicagos most gorgeous neighborhoods, but also one of its richest in terms of leisure and entertainment. Within proximity of Navy Pier and Chicago Harbor Lighthouse, residents can choose between a variety of activities on water or land and stroll among the community areas several historic districts in your free time. The Loop is also Chicagos central business district and the second-largest financial district in the U.S. after Manhattan, while additionally hosting many diplomatic missions and educational institutions. World-class public transportation allows for easy exploration, either to any of the neighborhoods gems, or to other parts of the city via Lake Shore Drive. Both a walkers paradise and very bikeable, The Loop is extremely accessible. In the summertime, make sure to catch the Taste of Chicago, Lollapalooza, and the Printers Row Lit Fest all just steps away from your home!
