Property details

The Lawrence House, built as a luxury apartment hotel, has been a cornerstone of life since its construction in 1928. The flats design team restored the building's original skylight, mosaic pool tiling, and terrazzo flooring as well as establishing an open lobby that acts as a free co-working space, adjacent to retailers such as a coffee shop and bar. Additional amenities include a backyard open to the public, a rooftop lounge and communal kitchen for residents, and a 6,000-square-foot fitness center including the fully restored pool and a boxing ring. The Lawrence House, located on the northeast corner of Kenmore and Lawrence avenue is the perfect location for an urban commuter. Just blocks away from the red line, our residents can walk, take the train, and bike to the lakefront and have ease of mind with our bike storage. The Lawrence House is a pet-friendly building and is home to cats, dogs, and even a teacup pig. Originally an apartment hotel, famous for housing musicians from the Aragon Ballroom and talent from the silent film production house Essanay film studios, The Lawrence House has preserved the spirit of the roaring ‘20s in contemporary apartment living. The lobby is open to the public and features an art deco barrel-vaulted skylight with a co-working table, lounge seating, a Heritage Outpost coffee shop, and Larry’s bar. A rooftop lounge, deck, and backyard provide ample seating for spring and summer fun with gas grills and seating areas. The Lawrence House offers studio, lofted studios, 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom duplex apartments. The building's historical name was the New Lawrence Hotel, of which it was one of the founding buildings of the Uptown Entertainment District - with many notable people living in or staying temporarily at the hotel.
