Cladding and window installation are wrapping up for 1400 Monroe Street, a seven-story residential building in West Loop by JK Equities Prior to construction, the property housed a three-story masonry building. The replacement, known as 1400 Monroe, is set to yield a total of 42 condominiums ranging between two- and four-bedroom residences. Prices begin at $800,000 for a one-bedroom, $1 million for a two-bedroom, and $2.5 million for a four-bedroom. Layout sizes, meanwhile, will fall between 1,242 and 3,887 square feet.

Chicago’s Booth Hansen has designed the rectangular structure, which includes a rectangular massing with vertical bays. The exterior is also punctuated by a series of recessed balconies and terraces. The near-complete facade is a mix of gray brick cladding, dark metal paneling and accents, and loft-styled windows. Given the brick work’s reflective coating, photos show an almost shimmer-like quality to the facade.
