Dearborn Park & Printer's Row

Dearborn Park was developed beginning in 1977 on former rail-yard land, transforming a long-industrial stretch south of the Loop into one of Chicago's most studied examples of planned urban residential redevelopment. Its tree-lined streets and well-maintained sidewalks create a pedestrian-friendly environment distinct from the busier grid of the surrounding South Loop.

1115 S Plymouth Court sits within the Dearborn Park I development phase, near the neighborhood's namesake open field and walking paths, and a short distance from the historic Printer's Row buildings profiled throughout this guide series.

The historic Dearborn Station, once a major rail terminal and now home to commercial offices and local businesses, sits at the northern border of Dearborn Park, adding character to the surrounding streets.

• The Art Institute of Chicago

Ideal Residents

Families Wanting More Space

With 2- and 3-bedroom units up to 1,750 square feet and on-site tennis courts, play areas, and park settings, the building suits families wanting more room than a typical loft or high-rise unit.

Buyers Who Want Recreational Amenities

An outdoor pool, tennis courts, fitness track, and party room offer a fuller recreational amenity package than many buildings in this series.

Those Who Value the Dearborn Park Setting

Residents drawn to the quieter, tree-lined, planned-community feel of Dearborn Park, distinct from the busier grid streets of the surrounding South Loop.

Buyers & Considerations

Pet Owners

A pet policy allowing dogs and cats (with a limit on the number of pets) makes the building a practical option for buyers with animals.

Budget-Conscious HOA Planning

Monthly HOA fees in the roughly $700–$875 range cover water, insurance, exterior maintenance, and more, which can simplify budgeting compared to buildings with lower fees but fewer included services.

Those Wanting Historic Character

Buyers specifically drawn to 19th-century printing-industry architecture may prefer the historic loft buildings profiled elsewhere in this series, since this is a purpose-built 1981 mid-rise rather than a converted historic loft.

Advantages of the Location

1. Full Recreational Amenity Package

An outdoor pool, tennis courts, fitness track, party room, and bike room, according to real estate listings.

2. Spacious, Family-Friendly Units

Unit sizes up to 1,750 square feet with 2-3 bedrooms, larger than many condo units elsewhere in Printer's Row.

3. Heated Garage Parking

Reported one garage space per unit, a practical advantage in a dense urban neighborhood.

4. All-Inclusive HOA Fees

HOA fees covering water, insurance, exterior maintenance, lawn care, scavenger service, snow removal, and internet simplify monthly budgeting.

Considerations About the Building & Area

Not a Historic Landmark

Unlike most other buildings in this series, 1115 S Plymouth Court is not part of the Printing House Row National Register district; it is a purpose-built 1981 condominium building.

Mid-Rise, Not High-Rise

At 6 stories, the building offers a lower-rise living experience than the neighboring 27-story Dearborn Park I and 22-story Dearborn Park II towers.

HOA Fee Range

Reported monthly HOA fees vary by unit ($674–$1,279); confirm the current fee for a specific unit before making decisions.
