About Elgin Artspace Lofts - For Artists Only
Residences for Artists and Their Families - Like many railroad communities in Chicagoland in recent years, Elgin has been working hard to preserve and enhance its downtown, with the arts as part of the plan. When City officials were introduced to Artspace at an Illinois Main Street Conference, they asked Artspace to help them achieve their goals. The result is the Elgin Artspace Lofts, a $15.2 million mixed-use project that created 55 units of affordable live/work space for artists and their families plus 5,874 square feet of retail and community space for arts-friendly businesses and nonprofit organizations. The historic Sears structure, occupied most recently by Elgin Community College, has been completely renovated and linked to a new addition. The City of Elgin and the Elgin arts community were the driving forces behind the project, working with Artspace to plan and develop the facility. Elgin’s residents and civic leaders believe that permanently affordable space for artists will strengthen an emerging arts and culture cluster in downtown Elgin, serve as a catalyst for continued development, bring vibrancy and activity to the street and increase the number of individuals and families living and working downtown.
Elgin Artspace Lofts - For Artists Only is an apartment community located in Kane County and the 60120 ZIP Code. This area is served by the School District U-46 attendance zone.

How To Qualify
# Persons | Annual Income |
Founded in 1836, the busy city of Elgin sits 35 miles northwest of Chicago and incorporates more than 1,600 acres of open parkland. Wandering through the city's downtown neighborhood is a journey through time, as historic architecture nestles between modern structures. Rentals in central Elgin, some of which sit beside the sparkling Fox River, include Victorian buildings and modern townhomes.
Warmer days in Elgin call for a visit to Al's Cafe and Creamery on Dupage Court, where lunch options like flavorful schnitzel and freshly prepared salads satisfy enthusiastic appetites. Try Al's chocolate malt for a cool, sweet dessert and a little energy boost on a hot afternoon. Restaurant choices for supper include the Toom Toom Thai Restaurant on South Grove Avenue. Fresh Thai curry, crispy crab Rangoon, and savory potstickers make Toom Toom a top choice for locals.
