Big changes have been in store for weeks at Silver Tower, 303 W Ohio St in River North. We learned earlier this month that the building went into receivership following a $40 million foreclosure suit filed against Stonegate Development. Over the weekend, hints of “drastic” price cuts started spreading around Twitter and Facebook.
Some of those new prices surfaced on the MLS this morning with eight new one- and two-bedroom listings. @properties is out, Jameson Real Estate is in, a sales center is already open on-site, special financing plans are in place, and a few homes have already gone under contract, says Jameson Realtor Lindsey Delrahim.
A “was / is” sheet comparing Silver Tower’s new and original prices should be ready by tomorrow, Delrahim says, so consider the following a sneak preview of sorts, based solely on what I found on Redfin, Coldwell Banker Online, and our own archives.
