The 227 East Walton Place Apartment Building is a historic condominium located in Chicago's Near North Side, designed by architect Harry Weese and completed in 1956. Notable for its innovative design that honors Chicago's architectural history, the building features a striking façade of red brick and stacked window bays, setting it apart from the modernist trends of its time. Recognized as a Chicago Landmark in 2004, it reflects Weese's vision of humane modern architecture. The building's unique layout includes only two apartments per floor, accessed via semi-private elevator lobbies, enhancing the living experience. Originally marketed as cooperative apartments, it has operated as condominiums since 1969, contributing to the vibrant Streeterville neighborhood just blocks from the Magnificent Mile.
