ABSOLUTE LOFTS RENTAL GUIDE
Is Absolute Lofts Right for You?
Absolute Lofts sits at 245 Michigan Avenue on an interior South of Fifth street — twenty two-story lofts rather than a flat in a tower. Renters look here for double-height rooms between roughly 1,444 and 1,798 square feet, with garden lofts opening to a yard and penthouse lofts to a roof terrace, in two- and three-bedroom layouts.
Marketing and mapping often list the building as Absolut Lofts — same address, alternate spelling. Daily stairs are part of the product, not an optional feature.
Good Fit If
- You want a two-level home and do not mind daily stairs.
- You need roughly 1,450 to 1,800 square feet of loft space.
- You will confirm whether the loft has a yard or a roof terrace.
Compare Other Options If
- You want a conventional single-level condo with elevator access.
- You prefer three bedrooms on one floor in a boutique at Louver House.
- You want a gated garden community at The Courts instead.
Why Rent at Absolute Lofts?
Renters choose Absolute Lofts when split-level living on a quiet Michigan Avenue block matters more than an Alton Road high-rise.
Twenty Lofts on Two Levels Each
What you rent is a split-level home with the sleeping area usually upstairs. Check headroom, stair width, and how the plan names each room.
Yards Below, Roof Decks Above
Lower lofts may include a garden yard and upper ones a rooftop area — outdoor space belongs to the individual loft rather than a shared tower deck.
Michigan Avenue Between Alton and Jefferson
This is an interior street a few blocks from the marina, the park, and the sand, all reached on foot.
Parking on a Narrow Block
Many lofts come with two assigned spaces — guest parking still needs the current rule in writing.
Things to Consider Before Renting at Absolute Lofts
A loft is not simply a smaller apartment, and the building appears under two spellings.
Listed Also as Absolut Lofts
Marketing and mapping often drop the final letter, so searches and paperwork can show either spelling for the same Michigan Avenue address.
Stairs Are Part of the Deal
Living on two levels is the product here. If one floor matters to you, look at a single-level building instead.
Bedroom Counts Differ by Loft
Garden and penthouse lofts appear as two- and three-bedroom homes — read the legal description for the loft you are shown.
Renting at Absolute Lofts: What to Know
Renting at Absolute Lofts usually means a landlord lease plus association approval for the garden or penthouse loft at 245 Michigan Avenue.
- Association package: Include the garden or penthouse loft code on the lease and request screening forms, fees, deposits, insurance, occupant list, pet addendum, parking assignment, and move instructions.
- Amenity access: Ask in writing how pool hours and common areas work for a tenant in this twenty-home building.
- Lease term: Establish term and renewal rules for this loft — do not assume another SoFi building’s minimum stay.
- Move-in: Photograph the stairs, outdoor space, keys, remotes, and appliances at possession, and keep repair duties on the lease.
Association requirements can change. Verify the current application package before signing or applying.

The Courts Condo
The Courts on Jefferson Avenue is a gated multi-building community with gardens between the buildings. Choose it for grounds and neighbors, or stay for a loft with its own outdoor space.
