The complex looks very nice, with a lake and indoor pool, however it is in a rough area and the security gate was always broken...If you wanted to have a guest over you would have to drive down to the entrance to get them in since the gate was always out of order...there were several car breakins while I lived there and the heat is controlled by the main office...my neighbors were very loud and the cops were summoned 4 times by the other neighbors (so I guess I wasn't the only person that was affected by their noise and fights)...The clientel is very suspect and I often wondered if everyone was paying the same amount $545 for a one bedroom....The kicker for me was when I had to break my lease for a job offer out of state...I lived there for 9 months and took a job in NY and when I told the office (one month in advance) I was given an option of paying a 2 month rent penalty or keep paying month to month in hopes that someone would rent my apartment...well there were three empty apartments on my floor alone, so I knew that wasn't a real option...the funny or ironic part of this was The Lakeshore Drive Apt. Mission states: "our mission is to simplfy the lives of our customers in a cost effective way so they can have more time to pursue what's truly important to them"....what a crock, when I went to pursue what was important to me (my professional career) I was penalized a total of $1600 (2 months rent plus they kept the entire security)..let me tell you how cost-effective that was for me and how much that simplified my life! Do yourself a favor, look for an apartment in Hyde Park..it is a very nice area and you will pay less or the same for a larger, nicer apartment and safer environment...however, there aren't any lakes in Hyde Park...My advice is there are better and safer places to spend the money that you work hard for!!
