    Uptown�s Booming Condo Market is singing, �All that Jazz�!

    The renaissance of Chicago�s north side entertainment district has attracted it�s first $1 million+, non-single family, condominium residence.<br/><br/>Public records indicate 2600 sq. ft. of raw space on the 12th floor at 1000 West Leland was purchased by the Clarke family for almost $800K. But the RESPA closing statement revealed yet an additional $400K to build the interior! Minnie Clarke was personal secretary to the late insurance tycoon W. Clement Stone whose AON Corporation still maintains a presence in the Uptown neighborhood.<br/><br/>The contemporary penthouse has colorful warm tones influenced by the Clarke�s Native American Indian Culture. Sweeping, unobstructed views of lake michigan and downtown�s west loop skyline, is a feature of the the all-glass exterior condo, creating a unique feeling of floating on air. Vaulted and mult-level ceiling heights flow 9 ft., up to 17 ft tall throughout the condo, creating room for an additional 200 sq. ft. loft. Entry to the condo displays an expansive 25 ft curved wall which visually draws guests into the airy entertainment plaza, decked-out with a full wet bar. A dazzling, creative use of iridescent glass tile, surprise and shimmer in every room.<br/><br/>3 generations of Clarkes; Minnie, her son Keith, and granddaughter Tina reside at the residence and enjoy entertaining in the open living space. There is also 3 large bedroom suites and 3-1/2 baths providing ample personal space. The Clarkes can walk to all the original and newly-attracted neighborhood venues which makes their lifestyle in Uptown Complete.<br/><br/>Uptown penthouses are emerging in many of the new and planned mid-rises since 1000 West Leland has been built. (834 W. Montrose, 4350 N Broadway, 5440 N Sheridan, 5554 N Sheridan, 1100 W Catalpa and to-be-built: 1134 W Leland and 4750 N Winthrop.)

    Where three isn't a crowd Uptown family creates a space for all its members October 01, 2006|By Denn

    Keith Clarke is 41 years old and still lives with his mom--by choice. Clarke, his 75-year-old mother, Minnie, and her 34-year-old granddaughter, Tina, share a 2,800-square-foot penthouse in Uptown that they designed with an architect so they can live together but keep sufficient privacy for each of them. It's one home, but with three master bedrooms. "We call it an enhanced three-bedroom," Keith says. He and his niece each have a bedroom-bathroom suite that is large enough to include a workspace, while Minnie has what she calls "the in-law apartment." Along with bedroom and bathroom, her space has a large dressing area, combined kitchenette and office, closet and small loft that she uses for storage. Minnie's space is like an apartment within an apartment--which it could be, at 700 square feet. "I have to go back there some days just to find out what she's doing," her son says.<br/>?<br/><br/>?<br/>Jonathan Splitt, the architect whose firm designed the buildingand the Clarkes' space, says "it was almost like doing hotel suites, because each person has private space to go into and can come and go as they like, but there is also a central living space where they can interact if they feel like it."<br/>Splitt forecasts that more people will want such collaborative homes as housing costs keep rising. As he sees it, each Clarke gets a lower-cost deal than if living alone. "They're not each paying for a whole kitchen and dining room, which they might not use a lot anyway," he says. "Why pay for two places with two kitchens when you can share?"<br/><br/>Multigenerational living arrangements like the Clarkes' appear to be getting more popular. The 2000 U.S. Census found that households with at least three generations living together accounted for 4 percent of all Illinois households, and 3.7 nationwide, an increase of 38 percent over the decade before. Even so, it was still a small slice--there were over 100 million one- or two-generation households nationwide, and just 4.2 million with three generations. (Of course, three-generation homes include grandparents, parents and small kids more commonly than all-adult groupings like the Clarkes.)<br/>But both Alex Chaparro, president of the Chicago Association of Realtors, and Donna Butts, executive director of a Washington, D.C.-based multigenerational advocacy group called Generations United, say they believe the numbers have grown considerably in the six years since the last census.<br/>Butts says it's partly a response to the way families have become scattered across the landscape while following jobs, education and housing opportunities around the country.<br/>"The generations have been separated," she says, "and as you age you start to have care needs and you start to want to be close to family. And then there are the people who just realize they like their family and want to be close, they want that richness of family."<br/>She notes that there's an economic factor, too: As real estate grows more expensive, middle- and lower-income families have to get creative about affording a home.<br/>Chaparro concurs: "They realize that if they pull together they can afford more house," he says. Chaparro knows the situation well; not only has he had several clients shopping for multigenerational homes, but both his parents and his in-laws share housing with adult offspring.<br/>Combining two or more units as the Clarkes did, Chaparro says, is a smart investment. Particularly as living in Chicago has become more appealing in the past decade or so, he says, "people aren't always looking for the small condo. There are enough large families looking for homes that you'll add to your investment in the long run if you combine multiple units. Let me tell you, you can never have too many bathrooms."<br/><br/>?<br/>There's also the possibility of deconverting the combined units back into separate spaces if the market doesn't seem interested at sale time, Chaparro notes.<br/>Few new Chicago developments have marketed multimaster units, Chaparro says, but "that doesn't mean it's not available. Almost any developer will let you buy multiple units and combine them."<br/>The Clarkes' condo, on the top floor of a 2-year-old building in Uptown, is, according to Keith, one of the neighborhood's first to be sold for $1 million. And they're proud to say so, because the family has been in or near the neighborhood for more than 50 years.From the oversize windows that wrap the west and south sides of their 12th-floor home, the Clarkes can see all the signs of growth--the new high-rises and mid-rises going up within a few blocks, extensive renovations of existing properties and a healthy mix of foot traffic on Uptown's sidewalks.<br/>"It's coming back," Minnie Clarke says. "It's a nice place to be again."<br/>In January 1950, when newlyweds Albert and Minnie Clarke took an apartment at Sheridan Road and Ainslie Street, Uptown was "wonderful, beautiful," Minnie says. "On Lawrence they had all these nice dress shops, and on Wilson the good stores and supper clubs."<br/>But over the next few decades, Uptown's glory dimmed as many of the neighborhood's luxurious apartments were left to decline or chopped into smaller units. And, state health officials "channeled released mental health patients to Uptown's small apartments and halfway houses," according to the "Encyclopedia of Chicago." In the 1970s Keith went north, to Edgewater, and his parents went west, to the Budlong Woods section of Lincoln Square.<br/>Many years later, in the late 1990s, Keith and his parents were living in separate condos on the same floor of a lakefront building in Edgewater, he on the inland side and they overlooking Lake Michigan. Within a few years, Albert died, Keith's spouse died, and Tina's father and mother (Minnie's daughter) died.<br/>?<br/><br/>?<br/>"We were all three widowed, you could say, and it was depressing for all of us," says Keith.<br/>Tina moved in with her grandmother, but Minnie was tiring of their building. "It was 40 years old, everything in it was old and needed to be replaced," she says. "I wanted to start over with something new."<br/>Keith, a real estate agent, had a similar idea but with a twist. "Why don't we all start over together?" he suggested to his mother. "We'll sell our two condos and get one big one together."<br/>At first they looked downtown, where much of the new condo growth was, but they were drawn back to the area where the family had spent five decades putting down roots. Keith found a contemporary condo project in Uptown called the Parvenu before construction began.<br/>They bought a pair of adjacent two-bedroom, two-bath condos on the top floor and, working with John Ballack at Jonathan Splitt Architects, reconfigured the space.<br/>"The three bedroom spaces are visually separated from one another, so they don't have to see each other when they don't feel like it," Splitt says. But when they do feel like it, they congregate in the common rooms, where cobalt blue cabinets, cherry red cabinets and pearlescent paint on concrete beams lend a sharp, contemporary attitude.<br/><br/>Edgy as they are, these and other dramatic design details--such as the guest bathroom's sink, which resembles a slab of lime-green Jell-O--are the choices of Minnie.<br/>"I wanted something new to keep me young," she says, though she's doing quite well at that on her own. At 75, she's still working as the assistant to an insurance executive, a job she has had for almost 50 years.<br/>"My mom's dream was to live somewhere brand new," Keith Clarke says, "but we didn't go very far from where the family has been since 1950."<br/><br/><br/>
