“Along the Gold Coast, high-rises began to glow, window added to window, against the dark. In every lighted bedroom, couples home from work were stripping off their business suits, falling into bed, and doing it,” Stuart Dybek writes in his story, “We Didn’t.” As poets will, Dybek left out the most important piece of information — what were those couples paying in monthly rent? Maybe less than you think, given all the romance of the Gold Coast. If they were in one-bedrooms like the ones at 40 E Oak St, pictured here, they were paying $1,225 to $1,275.
At 910 N Lake Shore Dr, you can find a one-bedroom apartment (floor plan below) for $1,300. The building has a sun deck – in case summer ever arrives.
