Workers at Metropolitan Tower, the conversion of the former Britannica Center into condominiums, have unbeatable views of the Taste of Chicago, across the street, from their perch above Michigan Avenue. Residents will have the same perspective, though with a little more separation from the roaring crowds below.
Prices start in the $300s for units in the building with the blue beehive light on top, at 310 S Michigan Ave. You can check out a brief history of Metropolitan Tower, designed by Graham, Anderson, Probst and White as the Straus Building and built in 1924, at the development’s Web site.
The biggest advantage to buying here? Incredibly easy for friends to find you; just follow the blue light.
