Barry Realty, the owner of 2828 N. Pine Grove, is not highly reccomended. Read the other ratings of their buildings (620 W. Surf, 2850 N. Sheridan, etc.) and you can decide for yourself...It is a very beautiful building and decent apartments, but looks can be deceiving.

I lived there for a year, and there are many reasons for me to warn you about this building...here we go...the fire department has been called many, many times (and that's just when I was home), windows have been broken in stairwells, fire hydrant residue has been all over the halls by immature "adults", grafitti was been written on walls all over the building, someone has tried to break down my apartment door, someone peed in the elevator and it smelled for weeks, screaming constantly coming from the halls, citcuit breakers have been shut off really late in the night (4 a.m. or so) causing myself and others to be late for work, lights were not fixed before I moved in and apartment wasn't cleaned. There is also only one dumpster for the whole building. In the end, most boils down to management. They never fixed these occurences/problems which should have been taken care of right away.

For the price I paid for that apartment, I expected more out of the people living there and expected the management to fix these problems...NOTHING was ever done. If you are done with your college days, I suggest you take your hard-earned, $1000/mo. rent elsewhere and enjoy the peace.
