1. Cost of ownership.
Compared to its condo neighbors, Marina City has a very favorable ownership cost. Assessments, property taxes, and household energy are low and manageable. My favorite is leaving for a vacation, flipping the breaker for the hot water heater and shutting off the heat & a/c. My place stays temperate in the winter or summer.
2. Views.
While some views have been compromised by the office tower construction at Clark & Kinzie, most units still have a stellar view. Compared to most in Streeterville or other parts of River North, the views are much much better.
3. Balconies
Three seasons of the year our wonderful balconies serve as a second living room.
4. Location
Our excellent location continues to improve with new neighborhood restaurants and amenities. Why bother with owning a car when you can walk to work and use the CTA to get just about anywhere else.
5. River Walk
You haven't heard much about it in the press or around the building, but during construction they sure are making some noise! Once this is complete to Franklin in a couple more years, it will really redefine our part of River North.
When this is completed, you will have riverwalk cafes, vendors selling crafts, art shows, and other activities right at our doorstep. It will be a magnet for office workers during the day, residents at night, and tourists on the weekend.
These are only five of my favorites. What are yours?
