On Wednesday, Joe and I took a little field trip to SoNo, Smithfield Properties‘ 28-story high-rise at 860 W Blackhawk St in Lincoln Park. I had been in the building before, but this time we came armed with a camcorder. In this video, we look at the north-facing one-bedroom / one-bath model on the 17th floor that’s priced in the $340s. Later, I’ll post another video from a two-bedroom / two-bath model on the same floor.
According to @properties agent David Wiencek, who let us into the building, Smithfield plans to break ground on the second tower, which will house rental apartments, later this spring.

Will the rental tower have identical size units to this “owner” tower? What about the finishes? I have looked at these units, and the views are really unique, but I am concerned about the rental tower plans.
Morgan,
I doubt that anything is finalized on the rental tower at this time.
Is there anywhere to get a better price breakdown for the units? You can get pretty specific on their site, but no mention of price. Specifically I am trying to figure out the lowest price of the bigger 1 bedroom and the smaller 2br.
Colin,
Have you considered visiting the sales office? That would strike me as the logical move.
