Oprah Winfrey rents out $5.6m Chicago apartment at $15K a month
Oprah Winfrey has put her opulent 5.6 million-dollar Chicago apartment up for rent for 15,000 dollars a month.
The former chat show host bought the sixth floor luxury apartment in the 1913 Beaux Arts building in the Gold Coast neighbourhood of the city in 2006 but never moved in because of security concerns and has now decided to let it to tenants.
The stunning 4,607 square foot residence - which Oprah attempted to sell for 6 million dollars in 2008 - includes a grand foyer, inner foyer, living room, formal dining room, laundry room, butler's pantry, solarium, wine room, gourmet kitchen, three bedrooms, four bathrooms and a two-car garage.
The new tenants can also enjoy stunning views of Lake Michigan from the library, living room and master bedroom, which has 10-foot ceilings. (ANI)
Chicago Chronicle
The Chicago Chronicle was first published as a newspaper on May 28 1895 serving the Chicago and surrounding areas. It was the only morning newspaper at the time and supported the Democratic party, although this changed in subsequent years. The Chicago Chronicle closed after publishing its final issue on May 31 1907, after a history of 12 years almost to the day. This new version of the Chicago Chronicle, which began publishing on September 11 2002 is essentially a local Chicago online newspaper, but with a national and international perspective, designed to provide readers with a one-stop shop for Chicago, national US, regional, and world news coverage, weather and sports information, with live updates on breaking business stories, and what's happening in the financial markets.
The biggest advantage we have is that we are an online newspaper, which means we are constantly refreshing our stories as more and more information comes to hand. Often when a story breaks the initial details are sketchy.
We and our sources around the world work hard to gather more information, verify facts, and provide a perspective of the major stories. Expert opinion often accompanies our articles to better inform readers, and provide a more complete understanding
of the news we deliver.
Financial markets and business reports are regular features as we pin down what's happening, and constantly refresh stock market indice readings, dollar currency rates, and breaking business news reports. Our world sports coverage is a priority, as is our regional news.
We like to think if you're looking for breaking news out of Chicago, Illinois, the United States, or the world, you'll look for it first at the Chicago Chronicle.
