River North rental roundup – one-bedrooms with balconies

Our at-a-glance apartment list and map makes it hyper-easy to check what’s available for rent in River North and other Near North locations. If that’s not your destination, we have more at-a-glance lists.

If you’d rather turn your apartment hunt into a sorry safari of misinformation, head for Craigslist or one of Chicago’s bait-and-switch apartment rental services.

The majority of River North apartments are one-bedrooms, due to their relative affordability and high appeal to singles and couples.

We set out to check what’s available for immediate occupancy in River North 1-bedrooms, and what it will cost you. We limited our search to buildings with private outdoor space, i.e. balconies or terraces, which ruled out The Chicagoan and River North Park Apartments (warning, auto-play video at link).

A number of the buildings have near real-time availability information online, which enabled us to determine that Flair Tower, 222 W Erie, has no one-bedrooms available for immediate occupancy.

NOTE: All quoted prices are for 12-month leases. Some of the buildings have a variety of incentives available, and you should always check their websites and inquire at the leasing office about special deals.

Quoted prices can conceal as much as they reveal. Check what utilities, if any, are included in the rent and what additional fees you may be required to pay.
