River roundup: A look at available units near the riverwalk

The area around Chicago’s riverfront is in many ways ground zero for new construction high-rises downtown. Within four blocks to the north and south of the river are over a half dozen new developments, notably the The Trump International Hotel & Tower Chicago and the Lakeshore East projects on the New East Side. It’s the views of many of those high-rises that make walking along the river such a treat, and once the city’s development of the riverfront is complete, it’ll likely be a popular destination for nearby residents. Here’s a look at some of the developments near the riverwalk that still have units on the market.
