420 E Waterside Dr | Chicago, IL
Rising on the Chicago River's south bank stands the residential gem, The Regatta. This newly completed condominium building offers dramatic views of Navy Pier and opportunities to enjoy a sunrise in the eastern sky over Lake Michigan. The Regatta's cylindrical glass wall that rises to the north is recognized from both Navy Pier and Lake Shore Drive, and is quickly becoming synonymous with Chicago's New East Side. Its location is within steps of the river walk and the walking paths that run along the lake. One can easily saunter during the summer months to favorite Chicago destinations like Shedd Aquarium, the Planetarium, the Field Museum, and Navy Pier. On a crisp fall day, one can enjoy the walk to Soldier Field to see the Chicago Bears. Depending on the floor plan, one can enjoy city views that highlight the city skyline, as well as lake and river views of Chicago's architectural landmarks.
Residents of this upscale condominium building enjoy a quiet, residential neighborhood that is nestled in the heart of Chicago, but that is close enough to the energy and vibrancy often associated with destinations such as Millennium Park, Grant Park, Michigan Avenue, the Theatre District, and, of course, Chicago's lakefront. The Shore Health Club offers residents a full compliment of cardiovascular equipment for use on a winter's day when the lakefront is not an optimal destination. Flat panel television screens in the health club allow residents to multi-task while exercising. For weight training, weight machines and/or free-weight barbells are available. An indoor pool and a whirlpool are located in the building for either exercise or relaxation. The pool deck has wrap-around windows that offer unobstructed views of Navy Pier. Over the next few years, this will become a perfect location to monitor the creation of what will likely become a Chicago architectural wonder, The Spire. Residents have no need to obtain a membership in a local health club when all of these amenities are at one's disposal “at home.”
Owners in The Regatta enjoy state-of-the-art accommodations where upgrades abound. Units include hardwood floors, granite countertops, balconies, and an in-unit washer/dryer, to name a few. The building is pet-friendly for those with either cats or dogs. Parking spaces in the building's garage are also available for purchase. A garden terrace is available for owner's use on those days one would prefer to remain close to home, but still desire to see the fireworks from Navy Pier. This garden setting is the perfect location to entertain friends with a panoramic view of Chicago as the backdrop. Residents can also take advantage of the hospitality room on the first floor, a media room, or just sit near the fireplace in the reception area that extends beyond the vestibule. An on-site dry cleaners is situated in the lobby. The Regatta has twenty-four hour door staff, an on-site engineer, and a management office on the premises.
The New East Side neighborhood is anchored around an award-winning outdoor park. This beautifully landscaped setting is child-friendly with its playground area, and yet offers an arboretum-type location for people who prefer a park bench and a good book to enjoy as they bask in the sun of a summer day. A new coffee shop has opened on the park's perimeter and provides a gathering place for neighbors to congregate and socialize without even leaving the neighborhood.
Take advantage of The Regatta's proximity to work, shopping, or the cultural experiences associated with Chicago. Whether it is a concert in Millennium Park, Venetian Night on the lakefront, or the Chicago Marathon, The Regatta is the perfect location from which to enjoy these highly regarded Chicago events. It is also a place you will want to call home.
