Modern Living at Chicago Uptown Wilmore Apartments

When we designed The Wilmore - 4600 N Kenmore Ave Chicago, IL 60640, we wanted to create something that felt like a natural extension of Uptown’s storied history while providing the sleek, modern comforts today's Chicagoan expects. Located at 4600 N Kenmore Avenue, our building stands five stories tall and houses 62 meticulously crafted residential units. 

The architecture itself is a conversation starter. We worked with Level Architecture to create a facade featuring faceted aluminum composite panels. Depending on the time of day and how the sun hits the building, the exterior shifts in light and shadow, reflecting the dynamic energy of the neighborhood. It isn't just a place to sleep; it is a landmark on the corner of Wilson and Kenmore.
