Not bad for the price - Maintenance leaves a bit to be desired but for a budget range apartment building its not terrible. The elevator got stuck between floors frequently. As a person working in the design and construction industry, I'm pretty sure there's not much they can do about it, other than rip out the elevator and all of the associated machinery and replace the entire thing, which costs a ...Full review of 520 West Melrose

Outstanding Building & Service - I was surprised to read the review which chastised the current building manager, Elena. I have lived in this building for close to ten years, and have seen many managers come and go, and I have to say that Elena has by far been the best person on staff. She is always very pleasant and willing to help you in any way that she can. As an example, my refrigerator started acting ...Full review of Dearborn North Apartments

Love the building! - I have lived in the building for the past year, I have a 12th floor 1-bedroom and I absolutely love it. I have a beautiful view of the lake and the city and the rent I am paying is very comparable to the other building in the neighborhood. Water pressure is excellent, maintenance is fast and the office staff is courtious. They take packages if you're not home and there is always a ...Full review of The New York

great urban living - I've been at marina city over 2 years now and I love it. Everything is close by and in walking distance. Parking is expensive but you don't need a car - it's much cheaper to rent one every few months or just take a cab rather than pay to park. To address the previous comment - the pimp dentist thing was years ago and if you don't like people who wear glitter and hot pants it's ...Full review of Marina City

- I enjoyed living here. I lived in unit 815. That unit has a great view of the city skyline, especially at night. The lake is visible from the bedroom windows. The neighborhood is fantastic. It's full of great restaurants, bars, and boutique stores. Everything you need is within walking distance. It's right off the Clark bus lines (22 and 36). The Fullerton redline is about ...Full review of 607 West Wrightwood

Dreadful - I recently moved into this apartment block. I was looking for somewhere quiet to work from home and was assured that this would be the case by the 'manager'. Having signed the contract and moved in I find that the building has become a construction site through mid-2010 as all the bricking is removed and replaced on a barely-10-yr-old building. I wake to shakiing walls and the sound of ...Full review of 5550 South Dorchester

Happy with this building! - I just moved in a few months a go and so far so good. I am not usually one to write a review but I was really impressed with Kristine, the leasing agent that helped me out when I rented the unit. I never felt pushed into make a decision and she answered all the questions I had. She was very helpful in helping me make the right decision on renting in Chicago. I just relocated from Idaho ...Full review of 1133 North Dearborn Apartments

Very satisfied - My experence with building management over the past 1.5 years has been very positive. I find both the staff in the management office and the building maintenance team to be friendly and helpful. However, I have noted that certain tenants exhibit a lack of respect for building management and maintenance. Perhaps as they mature a bit this will change. ...Full review of The Sterling

Great place, but with a few issues... - I have lived here for a year, and don't have any major complaints. We have a two bedroom apartment, which has everything we could ask for - brand new appliances, washer/dryer in unit, hardwood floors, two bathrooms and two large closets in each bedroom (plus other storage in the living area). We love being so close to the lake, the bus, the el, and several ...Full review of 6040 North Sheridan Road Apartments
