About the community
Historic hard lofts on the river in the old Montgomery Ward tower.
One River Place is a loft-condominium conversion of the former Montgomery Ward & Co. Administration Building, the 1929 Art Deco landmark on the North Branch of the Chicago River that is crowned by the copper Spirit of Progress statue. The eight-story building at 758 North Larrabee Street holds roughly 241 loft residences, converted in the early 2000s. Homes are authentic hard lofts with soaring concrete ceilings, oversized windows, exposed columns, and private balconies on most units, and the building pairs a riverfront setting with a roof deck, a fitness room, and 24-hour door staff on the quieter northwest edge of River North.

What it’s actually like to live here
One River Place appeals to buyers who want genuine loft character rather than a glass high-rise. The concrete ceilings, columns, and oversized windows are the real thing, carried over from a 1929 landmark, and the Spirit of Progress statue overhead gives the address a sense of history that newer River North towers cannot manufacture. Sitting right on the river with a rooftop deck, a kayak launch and water taxi nearby, and the East Bank Club minutes away, it rewards an active, urban, and design-minded resident who values quiet, private, thick-walled units.
The location threads a useful needle. It is close enough to River North dining, galleries, and nightlife, plus the West Loop and the Loop, but set back on the quieter northwest edge away from the Magnificent Mile crowds. Transit, Kennedy Expressway access, and walkability are all solid, and the neighborhood is notably dog-friendly, with a dog park a short walk away.
The honest tradeoffs are the tradeoffs of any historic conversion. Owners take on the upkeep of a nearly century-old building, so reserves, assessment history, and any special assessments deserve close reading. Hard-loft layouts, older systems, and open floor plans are not for everyone, parking varies by unit between deeded and rental spaces, and the immediate industrial-transitional pockets nearby are still evolving. For the right buyer, character and location outweigh those frictions. For current pricing and market activity, see the live Market snapshot on this page.
The questions buyers actually ask
One River Place FAQ
The questions I get most from buyers shopping One River Place. If yours isn't here, text 224-385-8779, same-day reply.
- What does the HOA actually cover?
- Monthly assessments at One River Place fund the door staff, the exterior and common-area upkeep of a historic riverfront building, the roof deck and fitness facilities, water, common insurance, and reserves. Because this is a nearly century-old converted structure, assessments should be read alongside the reserve study and any special-assessment history. Confirm the exact current amount, what it covers, reserves, and any pending special assessments from the condo documents for the specific unit.
- When was One River Place built?
- Loft conversion of the 1929 Montgomery Ward & Co. Administration Building built the community between 1929 and 1929.
- Is One River Place a new building or a loft conversion?
- It is a loft conversion. The residences were created inside the former 1929 Montgomery Ward & Co. Administration Building, an Art Deco landmark on the Chicago River topped by the Spirit of Progress statue, with the conversion completed in the early 2000s. The building has roughly 241 loft units across eight stories.
- What makes the units distinctive?
- Authentic hard-loft construction: soaring concrete ceilings, exposed columns, large windows, and private balconies on most homes, with a quiet, solid feel from the concrete structure. Layouts skew toward one-bedroom and two-bedroom lofts.
- What amenities does the building offer?
- 24-hour door staff, a fitness room, a rooftop sundeck with skyline and river views, a bike room, indoor garage parking, and direct riverfront access. It is also a notably pet-friendly building.
- How is parking handled?
- Through an indoor garage. Some units include a deeded space and others rely on rental spaces, and availability varies, so confirm the exact parking arrangement and cost on each specific unit.
- What schools serve the building?
- The district is Chicago Public Schools, with Ogden International and Wells Community Academy commonly cited as the neighborhood schools for the Near North Side, plus magnet and selective-enrollment options that are application-based. Confirm the assignment by entering 758 North Larrabee Street in the official CPS School Locator, since boundaries change.
- What are prices and assessments like, and how is the market?
- Those move over time and are best read live. See the Market snapshot on this page for current price character, availability, and activity rather than a quoted figure, and confirm the exact monthly assessment and reserves on each unit's disclosure.

Your local agent
Joe knows One River Place
Most agents will list anything. I focus on the places I actually know, and the things that move value here don't show up in the MLS write-up: which streets and buildings hold demand, what the HOA or assessments really cover, how the comps read once you account for condition and location, and where buyers consistently want to be.
When you're ready to tour or list, you want someone who has read the last 50 closed comps in this specific market, not a national average, and can tell you what they actually mean for your price. That's how I work. Text or call any time, and I'll give you a real take, not a brochure.
