STAY AWAY - I lived in the Sheffield Lofts for a year. Great location, horrible management. Expect the management to take you for every possible nickel they can. I found that they charged and fined the maximum for any infractions they could by law. While living here, I became a great student of tenant law. When writing to or calling to the management, be sure to use the phrases "legally ...Full review of Sheffield Lofts

GOOD REVIEWS ARE PROBABLY FROM STAFF, TRUST ME, DO NOT MOVE HERE!!! - I wish these bad reviews were up before we moved in because we would have never moved here!!! As for the prior review, you are completely ignorant in assuming that people that have issues with the staff do not pay their rent on time. That is complete bs! We have lived here almost all year and have never been late with our rent and have had issues with not getting our complaints addressed ...Full review of 1401 South State

Auschwitz with a Sundeck! - -Dog friendly is the last thing that can be used to describe this building. We were fined a total of over $1500 in the two years we lived here, for our dog barking on 3 occasions. That's $500 a pop! The only time we disputed the write up, we were ridiculed by the condo board and denied even a reduction in the fine. It seems that the building's residents consist of bitter ...Full review of 525 Hawthorne Condominiums

Live here if you are ready to put up with -------------- from management - The Apartment complex is very nice, clean and neat. We like it a lot, the views are awesome, the location is nice and the neighbors are nice people too. It's true there is no security but the maintenance is on location from 6AM till 11PM and you need a clicker to get in the complex. It always smells nice in the lobby, water is always hot, no bugs, good sound proof ...Full review of Twin Towers

Ugh! - This is the only building I have lived in since moving to Chicago, and it was perfect when I first moved in. At that time ALL utilities (including electric) were included. The location is great, and my apartment was really cute and a decent size. However, over time it has slowly gone downhill. I still love the location, the front desk staff and maintainence are very helpful and ...Full review of 18 East Elm

We have loved living here - My roommate and I have enjoyed living here and plan to renew our lease. Noise is pretty minimal (considering it is a high-rise in the middle of a city). We have had a few problems with incredibly loud and disrespectful neighbors, but when we talked to the front door man, he took care of it right away. We have beautiful views and great hardwood floors and the staff has always been ...Full review of Rienzi Plaza

Manager K Carone makes bldg horrible - WE LIVE HERE NOW... DO NOT MOVE HERE!! Don't pay more than 1200 for any 1 bdrm apartment. They will try and tell you they cost more but no one pays that. You can go next door to 1400 and have the same views for much less money and without the nasty manager. Until they replace the bldg manager DO NOT MOVE HERE. The bldg is beautiful with great views. ...Full review of 1350 N Lake Shore Dr Bldg

Nice Apartment... But Beware - I lived in this building for a year and I loved every minute of it, especially the size of the apartment and the cost. But it seems as if things have gone downhill since then.

Banner Property Management was an ok company, but at least we had a good superintendent (Vio). But if the management has changed to Wilmette Realty then run away from this building as fast as you can. Wilmette is ...Full review of 6230 N. Kenmore (Granville Apartments, Banner Property Management)

Cool Place Except... - It's a great place to rent, but not for condos. No parking lot soon, no views, what are we supposed to buy??? They should stick with renting this place because I don't think anyone will buy here. ...Full review of Prairie District Lofts
