Spent the day looking for this iconic piece and finally found it. The Chicago Theatre was built in 1921 and was originally named the Balaban and Katz Chicago Theatre. This building has become the unofficial landmark for Chicago representing the rich arts and music culture Chicago is known for. In 1979 the building was added to the list of historic buildings, and later in 1983 was added as an official landmark for the City of Chicago. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/829/d8c03156-c181-4c86-ae96-1a7ac5ea265c.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) State Street 1 min walk \- 0.0 km - ![Scene of Chicago street bridge with traffic among modern buildings of Downtown Chicago at Michigan avenue in Chicago, Illinois, United States, Business and Modern Transportation concept](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6156167/9a44be22-322b-4187-8844-e2aa99b46184.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Michigan Avenue 3 min walk \- 0.3 km - ![Chicago Riverwalk featuring a river or creek, a high-rise building and a city](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248621533116610/2226c4aa-f944-42f1-81f9-955ea58ff161.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Chicago Riverwalk 8 min walk \- 0.7 km - ![Reflection of a Chicago buildings in a mirror of Chicago Bean, Millennium Park, Chicago city, USA., Shutterstock ID 1129809965, Purchase Order: SP-2109, Order Number: SP-2109 Qantas AU US Sale New Ads](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6069201/dce58962-e3d4-4c61-b924-2acc9b980313.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Millennium Park 13 min walk \- 1.1 km - Northwestern Memorial Hospital 6 min walk \- 0.6 km ### Getting around - Grand Station (Red Line) 1 min walk - Millennium Station 14 min walk - Chicago Midway Airport (MDW) 35 min drive ### Restaurants - Eataly 3 min walk - Bally's Casino 3 min walk - Chipotle Mexican Grill 1 min walk - Weber Grill Restaurant 1 min walk - UNO Pizzeria & Grill 3 min walk ## Frequently asked questions ### Does 53 Floor MagMile Penthouse Views, Balcony, Pool have a pool? ### Is 53 Floor MagMile Penthouse Views, Balcony, Pool pet-friendly? ### How much is parking? ### What time is check-in at 53 Floor MagMile Penthouse Views, Balcony, Pool? ### What time is check-out at 53 Floor MagMile Penthouse Views, Balcony, Pool? ### Where is 53 Floor MagMile Penthouse Views, Balcony, Pool located? ## Have a question?

The VRBO is clean, well-stocked and very comfortable. The owner’s expectations and instructions were very clear and they even checked in us a couple of times. I definitely recommend this rental and would stay again. ##### Anne b. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catherine C.

The communication with the owners, the property, location and parking all fit our needs perfectly. The property was lovely and spacious and accommodated all five of us very well. Thank you so much for helping to make our graduation trip to Chicago the BEST! ##### Catherine C. Stayed 6 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Margaret R.

The view from the 53rd floor was amazing, especially at night when the surrounding buildings lit up. The location was great. We either took the Red Line on the corner (very easy to navigate around town) or walked to nearby sights, restaurants, and the lake. The apartment was perfect for the 4 of us. The pool was refreshing, and the kitchen allowed us to have breakfast there before heading out, plus cocktails and snacks in the evening. The staff was very helpful. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone spending time in Chicago. ##### Margaret R. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John S. Aug 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect place to stay in Chicago Starting with the remarkably helpful check-in process, the whole stay was amazing. Great communication with managers of the apartment, beautiful place, marvelous view, great workout facilities, close to an insane number of fabulous restaurants, just above a Jewel supermarket, and right at an entrance/exit to the CTA red line subway station. Short walk to Michigan Avenue, Grant Park. Much more. I'm getting tired of typing. Thanks so much Jeri-Lou and James!! ##### John S.

The property gave us such easy access to so many things around Chicago. The building itself was very friendly, including the wonderful doorman! We spent lots of time out and about exploring (and eating), but also enjoyed hanging out on the property for morning breakfast, as well as evening card-playing. Having a grocery store/liquor store attached to the property was also a huge help! The property owners gave us great instructions, not only on how to access the building, but also links to helpful sites for our visit. We love coming to Chicago and will definitely stay here again! ##### Meme C. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joyce B.

The view at this penthouse will not disappoint—It is magical beyond words and the balcony provides an opportunity to enjoy Chicago in a way we had never experienced before. Just a couple of downsides. The bed pillows in the smaller bedroom were rocks! Fortunately, there was an extra pillow in the linen closet. And, the sofa needs to be refurbished as one sinks to 12” off the ground when seated. Our hosts were perfect in every way and we look forward to returning. ##### Joyce B.
