Former Chicago Blackhawks hockey great Jonathan Toews on Thursday sold his four-bedroom, 4,406-square-foot penthouse condominium in Lincoln Park for $4.5 million.
Toews, 36, was the Blackhawks’ team captain and a central part of the team’s three Stanley Cup-winning teams between 2010 and 2015. After battling long COVID and chronic immune response syndrome, Toews sat out the 2023-2024 hockey season, and he currently is a free agent. He never has retired from the NHL, and just last month he posted on Instagram that he recently had spent five weeks in India undergoing a healing detox.
Through an opaque, Winnipeg-based land trust, Toews paid $3.55 million in 2019 for the penthouse condo, which is atop an eight-story building, and for three parking spaces in the building.
In July, Toews listed just the condo for $4.7 million, and he found a buyer in October. His listing agent, Millie Rosenbloom, declined to comment. Public records do not yet identify the buyer.
Toews’ condo is one of two penthouse-level units in the building, which has 10 residences in total and was built behind the brick and limestone facade of a nearly 100-year-old parking garage. The condo has 4-1/2 bathrooms, skyline views, a 50-foot great room with 11.5-foot floor-to-ceiling windows, a double-height gallery with 22-foot ceilings and a rooftop deck on the second level.
Developer Todd Buffington undertook the building’s conversion and expansion — five glass and steel floors rise above the original three levels of the garage — in 2017 and 2018.
The penthouse had a $74,182 property tax bill in the 2023 tax year. It also has a $1,845-a-month homeowners association fee.
