Lakeshore East is anchored by a six-acre park and offers direct access to the Riverwalk and Lakefront Trail, creating a vibrant, amenity-rich environment. The neighborhood is home to a dense, affluent renter base and is surrounded by luxury residential towers and trophy office assets, ensuring sustained demand for high-quality multifamily and hospitality product.
