LAKEFRONT LIVING

OUR BUILDING
Overlooking Belmont Harbor, the 3520 Lake Shore Drive Association is a community that includes three addresses: 3520, 3530, and 3534 North Lake Shore Drive. These addresses are adjoined and house 164 condos within a 12-story building. 3520 Lake Shore Drive is one of the Lakeview neighborhood's classic pre-war condominium buildings. It was designed in a Neo-Georgian style by the architectural firm Rissman & Hirschfield and was built in 1924 as luxury apartment rentals before being converted to condominiums in the 1980s.

The interior entrance of 3520 is lush with vintage architectural detail such as coffered ceilings, ornamental plastered moldings and surrounded by a baluster lined mezzanine. The outdoor spaces contain two enclosed courtyard patios, one on each side of the hallway entrance into the lobby.

Amenities of this pet-friendly condo association include a laundry room, Tide Cleaners Laundry Service, mini-market, ATM machine, receiving room, community room, storage rooms, bike room, exercise room and outdoor dog run. Additionally, the building has a video security system, on-site manager, live-in/on-site building engineer, and maintenance personnel. Parking is available at nearby garage locations as there is no on-site parking. However, 45-minute parking is available in the rear courtyard which is convenient for any loading/unloading tasks. Monthly assessments cover essential utilities such as heat, gas, water, HD cable, and internet.

Some units retain the original live-in maid’s quarters and staff buzzer systems. Condos have high ceilings and hardwood floors, 48 units have lake views. In the 3520 building, units typically range between 765 SF to 1,400 SF. The connected 3530 and 3534 buildings feature semi-private floor plans with only two units per floor. Units in the 3534 building range from 1,600 SF to 1,800 SF. In the 3530 building, units range from 2,000 SF to 2,400 SF.

The condo association is a diverse community of singles, families, recent transplants, and longtime residents.
