Executive summary

1601 S Morgan Street is a free-standing, 2½-story brick building of about 6,800 SF on a 6,600 SF corner lot at 16th & Morgan, in the heart of Pilsen. The building dates to 1874 and was formerly an art gallery. It combines historic masonry with a bright, open interior. About 3,300 SF is available, and ownership is flexible on how the space is configured.

The gallery-style ground floor has soaring ceilings and an open plan that adapts easily to showroom, studio, creative office or event use. The building also has a private second-floor office, a fully equipped kitchen, three bathrooms including a two-stall restroom, and attic storage with full standing height.

On-site parking is a rare advantage in Pilsen. There are three outdoor spaces and a two-car garage off a paved public alley. The corner location gives visibility from two streets. The CTA Pink Line's 18th Street station, the #8 Halsted and #18 16th/18th Street buses, and the Dan Ryan and Stevenson expressways are all nearby.

Pilsen is one of Chicago's best-known cultural neighborhoods. The 18th Street corridor, the arts district and the nearby UIC/University Village area bring steady foot traffic and a broad customer base.

B2-2 zoning and existing infrastructure make the space a strong fit for creative firms, galleries, food and event concepts, and professional users. A tenant gets character space with parking and corner presence in one of the city's most distinctive neighborhoods, with build-out costs kept low.
