Streeterville Condo Deal Closes for $1.44 Million

The three bedroom condo that Kosuke Fukudome, the Chicago Cubs outfielder, purchased with his wife also boasts three bathrooms, gorgeous view of Lake Michigan and track lighting. Another prominent sports figure who joins Fukudome in the Streeterville neighborhood is Alfonso Soriano, who purchased a Streeterville condo in 2006. The 44th floor unit sold for $2.65 million dollars. For Kosuke Fukudome, his purchase makes him a first-time homeowner in the city of Chicago. The 30th floor corner condo is located in a new Streeterville high-rise development.

A representative for the condominium's developer originally stated that Kosuke purchased the unit for $1.44 million dollars that included the two parking spaces. An erroneous report stating that he purchased the condo for $1.32 million was not accurate, according to the November 5, 2010 filing of the deed with the Recorder of Deeds of Cook County.
