A 55th-Floor Condo With Panoramic Views in Chicagos Trump Tower Will List for $2.99M – Mansion Global

A 55th-story condo with panoramic views of downtown Chicago, the Chicago River and Lake Michigan will hit the market in January.

The three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom apartment fills out one of the rounded corners of Trump International Hotel and Tower Chicago, with floor-to-ceiling windows running roughly 90 feet from one end of the unit to the other. Primary views are to the north and east but the apartment also gets a bit of southern and western exposure, listing broker Phil Skowron, of @Properties, told Mansion Global.

Mr. Skowron plans to officially list the unit in mid-January for $2.99 million.

Homeowners Glenda and Ed Spangler are former suburbanites who bought the property for $2.3 million in April 2010 and became its first and only residents. They renovated it extensively, redoing almost every stone surface of the 3,100-square-foot space, they said in an interview Wednesday.

Countertops, bathrooms and three fireplaces were made over with elegant materials such as granite; the kitchen features Snaidero cabinets; some of the pillars throughout feature mosaic detailing, Mr. Skowron and the Spanglers said. The couple also found a clever way to maximize the units gorgeous viewsthey installed foot-long mirror panels indented about an inch into the walls in common areas, so the reflection of the city is visible even when occupants are sitting away from the windows.

The Spanglers decision to sell their home was difficult because they love the city and enjoy living in the Trump building, where residents have access to the same amenities as hotel guests. The building, which is about 10 years old, has 339 hotel rooms and more than 400 condos, according to Mr. Skowron. It features a 30,000-square-foot fitness center with a gym, spa, yoga and spinning studios with lake views from the 14th floor. The downtown location provides easy access to theaters, restaurants and shopping.

But there are other things calling us at the moment, Mr. Spangler said, like travel plans and their other homes in warmer climes. We might be back.

Mrs. Spangler, 61, and Mr. Spangler, 64, are both retired from careers in sales and consulting, respectively, and will kick off their new chapter with a holiday trip to Hong Kong, Cambodia and Vietnam.
