An Art Deco Masterpiece at the Crown of Astor Street
Occupying the northernmost position on one of Chicago's most storied residential addresses, 1524 N. Astor Street is a rare convergence of architectural pedigree, bespoke craftsmanship, and exceptional privacy. Originally conceived as a mid-century modern residence by noted Chicago architect I. W. Colburn, the home was later reimagined with a refined Art Deco sensibility by two of the city's most respected design firms — Marvin Herman & Associates and Suzanne Lovell Inc. — resulting in approximately 6,500 square feet of interiors that reward close inspection at every turn. From a soaking tub carved from a single block of Noir St. Laurent marble to hand-cast plaster moldings and a dramatic curved staircase with artisan-fabricated bronze and steel balusters, this is a Gold Coast residence of uncommon distinction.
