In West Lincoln Park, on the edge of Sheffield Neighbors, stands The Ludlow. Once a historic factory called The Ludlow Typograph Company, this expansive structure located on the corner of Clybourn and Magnolia has been a mainstay in the Lincoln Park neighborhood since its foundation was first poured in 1918.
In 2024, The Ludlow has been reimagined for new life, filled with brand new studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences. As the newest loft-style apartments in Lincoln Park, The Ludlow presents a unique opportunity to live in brand new units that are saturated in rich Chicago history. Complemented by best-in-class amenities, The Ludlow was intentionally crafted to create the experience of living in a “home-tel” – an apartment so luxurious that you’ll never want to leave.
The Ludlow apartments are available in a variety of floor plans to suit your lifestyle needs. Each apartment is complete with high-end finishes and 12’ ceilings, awash with natural light thanks to large loft-style windows throughout, equipped with roller shades. The Ludlow’s luxurious kitchens include custom quartz countertops and stainless steel Samsung appliances, with custom pendant and under-cabinet lighting. Each apartment has in-unit laundry, as well as large closets with built-in shelving. Some units have private terraces, allowing you to enjoy a peaceful night or morning coffee on your personal patio.
As the newest pet friendly apartments in Lincoln Park, you’ll find amenities that make your life (and your pup’s life!) easier. From a dog spa with an integrated laundry station, to a convenient pet relief area, your four-legged friend will feel right at home at The Ludlow. You’ll also find a variety of pet-focused businesses within a half-block of The Ludlow, including Petco, Just Food For Dogs, PAWS Chicago, more.
The community amenities at The Ludlow are unparalleled. Enjoy a craft cocktail at the rooftop bar, or indulge in a mouthwatering dinner in the basement’s omakase restaurant and whiskey bar.

Multiple communal outdoor spaces, including a turfed courtyard with grilling stations, encourage the importance of community. The co-working lounge allows for solo focus or collaboration with others, providing space for your WFH needs.
