Vintage Ukrainian Village Apartment with the beauty of original 1914 built ins and style of 2012 ecological rehab

A top (3rd) floor apartment in a historic Chicago brownstone with dazzling original woodwork from 1914 and new bathrooms, kitchen, heat/air conditioning. The apartment has three bedrooms, a living room, dining room, kitchen, two baths (one with shower and one with Jacuzzi bath), washer/dryer, enclosed porch, garage space, and backyard with garden. The apartment is located in the vibrant Wicker Park/Ukrainian Village neighborhood with shops, restaurants, cafes, and an independent video store three blocks away. The street is a tree-lined, historic preservation neighborhood in Chicago. One room is set up for a child or children, but all children’s things can be removed upon subleaser’s request in order to use the room for other purposes. The apartment is flooded with light and has beautiful views of the neighborhood.

The apartment is right on the Division and Chicago bus lines that go directly to the Newberry Library. Two Blue Line “L” stops can be reached with a short walk or bus connection. The Blue Line goes directly to the UIC campus.

I am a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago with a sabbatical semester at the University of Cambridge. My study has a printer, fax, and couch that folds into an extra bed. There is wireless internet, a land line, and cable television.

About I have a PhD from UC Berkeley. I joined the UIC faculty in 2003 and moved into our condo in Ukrainian Village in 2005. My husband is an actor and human beatbox and we have a four year old daughter. My research focuses on political interpretations and uses of the Bible. My book, River Jordan: The Mythology of a Dividing Line (U of Chicago Press, 2011) considers the long history of the Jordan as a border. Currently, I am at work on two projects. The first concerns political readings of the biblical book of Joshua and justifications for Holy War and the second project looks at the impact of an oil economy on Middle Eastern states and imagines what the region might look like with a water economy. My sabbatical will take us to Cambridge and then to the Middle East. As may be apparent from my interest in water, our home has been retrofitted with water and energy saving in mind, but don't worry there is still a jacuzzi bath and steam shower. Beyond my academic interests, I work a bit in theater and media and swim in open water when weather permits.
