Fire breaks out in condo building in Chicago's Bronzeville neighborhood

Everyone was safe Tuesday following a fire at a relatively new luxury condo building in Bronzeville.

The fire broke out early Tuesday afternoon in the three-story building at 3309 S. Michigan Ave.

Real estate listings indicate that the three-unit condo building was constructed in 2006. A Redfin listing shows the three-bedroom, two-bathroom condos feature open floor plans, hardwood floors and woodwork, fireplaces, cherry kitchen cabinets, and a whirlpool tub in the main bathroom.
