A minimum of $1Million Dollars to get a condo at Vista, Chicago's newest luxury high-rise - What happened to the 20 percent that had to be reserved for low cost Section 8 housing for the Negroes rule in Chicago? I guess money gets you to keep the shitheads out!

If you want to live in Chicago's newest luxury high-rise, get ready for a expensive truth: Million-dollar views ain't what they used to be.

While $1 million will be just about enough to squeeze you into one of the cheapest condos on a lower floor of the yet-to-be built, 95-story riverfront Wanda Vista Tower, it won't get you much closer to the stunning views from the building's $17 million penthouse than a ticket for a passing boat tour would.

That's because the average condo in what will be the city's third-tallest building will cost you around $2.5 million.

Developer Magellan earlier this month opened a 10,000-square-foot showroom to market the 406 Vista condo units in the 1,186-foot-tall, Jeanne Gang-designed skyscraper, which is due to break ground this summer in Lakeshore East and aims to be the last word in luxury downtown living when it is completed in late 2019.
