Most apartments at 812 Adams open onto a balcony. A handful open onto something larger. A private terrace, wide enough for a table, two chairs and the kind of evening where nobody suggests going anywhere else.
A SECOND FLOOR TERRACE AT 812 W. ADAMS
A balcony is somewhere to stand. A terrace is somewhere to sit. It is the difference between stepping out for air and eating dinner outside on a Tuesday in June, and it is the first thing residents mention when you ask them why they renewed.
The terrace homes sit on the second floor. High enough that the street reads as background, low enough that you are still part of the block. Halsted is half a minute away and you can hear it, faintly, which is the point of living here.
Your terrace is yours. The roof belongs to everyone. Six thousand square feet on the penthouse level with grills, lounge seating and the downtown skyline in front of you. Most residents use both, for completely different reasons.
Five apartments in the building have a private terrace. Availability moves, so call the leasing office for what is open now.
