What are today's empty nesters looking for in a home? According to the Taylor Johnson clients featured in this story like Morgante Wilson Architects, it could be a smaller, stylish home that is less cluttered. Meanwhile at luxury apartment tower 500 Lake Shore Drive, they are drawn to the maintenance-free lifestyle and high-end amenities in an ideal downtown location. But not all empty nesters want to give up the single-family lifestyle as TJ client Meritus Homes notes its homes with first-floor masters are still in demand by this demographic.
