CHICAGO, IL – HFF announced today that it has been named to market for sale The North Shore Hotel (top left photo), a 185-unit independent living retirement community in Evanston, Illinois. 

HFF is marketing the property on behalf of the seller, IRMCO Properties & Management Corporation. 

The North Shore Hotel is situated on a 1.5-acre site at 1611 Chicago Avenue across the street from Whole Foods and within walking distance of Northwestern University in Evanston. 

Originally built in 1919, the property has a six-story main building plus a single-story retail building to the immediate north.  Units are offered in studio, one- and two-bedroom layouts as well as room-only options without kitchens.

 The 90 percent occupied property currently offers residents three meals per day, daily housekeeping services, bath and linen service and a 24-hour front desk attendant.
