Four out of five of this week’s priciest listings were condominiums, which these days tend to fare better than single-family homes in Chicago’s luxury market. But there was one notable exception, in a 1920s-era red brick mansion.
The list also includes a unique listing at the Heritage, a condo with a Japanese garden that has water misters, a lily pond, and a waterfall.
