Rising on the industrial edge of the former Cabrini Green site, NEXT is a luxury apartment tower. It caters to young professionals working in the near north side’s burgeoning tech sector. There are 28 floors of apartments, all offering tremendous views. In keeping with the latest trends, NEXT offers a rooftop pool and sundeck with cabanas, fire pits and grills for cooking out—plus fitness facilities and social spaces. In addition to a “bike kitchen” to help residents keep rolling (the building offers fewer parking spaces than units), the most unusual shared amenity is a first for Chicago: Daisy, an 80-pound Newfoundland, is the “house dog.”
