Chestnut Tower: Don't Make Chestnut Tower Your Home (Not Recommending)

2008-05-27T07:41:01-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I agree with the previous review. I am contacting the board of health to fine this building for not mandating residents to properly dispose their trash. Also, I too have seen burning cigarette butts in the stairwell that I have extinguished. This is a concern for the fire marshall and ... [click to read full apartment review]

Chestnut Tower: Chestnut Tower (Not Recommending)

2008-05-26T17:13:04-06:00

From -Anonymous-: This used to be a quality upscale building until about a year ago. There is no upkeep. It is filthy and disgusting because the quality of tenants have no upbringing and are ill-mannered. They allow smoking in the stairwell and hallways. I have extinguished many burning cigarette butts in non-smoking ... [click to read full apartment review]

Chestnut Tower: I like it! (Not Recommending)

2006-06-09T14:07:35-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I've lived at Chestnut Tower for almost a year now, and can tell you I really like it. I had a difficult time finding a building as nice as this one that also allowed dogs; and the courtyard for the pups is invaluable at 6:00 am in February. Also having ...

Chestnut Tower: The paid-for A/C is overrated (Recommending!)

2006-05-03T22:46:26-06:00

From -Anonymous-: While the location is great and the view spectacular, the fact that you don�t pay for A/C also means that they get to turn it on whenever they feel it is warranted.

The staff doesn�t live in the building so they can�t relate to the residents. This is proven by ... [click to read full apartment review]

Chestnut Tower: explore the market. (Not Recommending)

2006-04-24T04:56:16-06:00

From -Anonymous-: If you are not familiar with chicago real estate, do not just assume that these prices are standard. This building, aside from being overpriced, is so plain. I hated the fact that I was paying around $1300 for a small one-bedroom, when it wasn't even a pretty apartment. It is ... [click to read full apartment review]

Chestnut Tower: too overpriced (Not Recommending)

2006-03-24T16:10:33-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I'm considering moving out. Not sure why I pay the money I do for a pretty small studio. I was bought in by the washer and dryer, but the surrounding area is totally skechy. I never feel safe. ... [click to read full apartment review]

2005-03-12T15:11:29-06:00

From sailing55@hotmail.com: After relentlessly searching many downtown apartments, I picked Chestnut Tower for its unique feel. First of all, the building is very clean. Secondly, the apartments are modern and include a washer/dryer. I also like the fact that their are several bus lines and easy access to the expressways. I am ...

Chestnut Tower: Over-priced & Over-rated (Not Recommending)

2004-04-16T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: OPEN YOU EYES PEOPLE & TURN ON YOUR BRAINS!

( Scam-artists ) This apartment company charges a TOTAL & COMPLETE RIP-OFF... $400 non-refundable "Administrative Fee" and a $50 "Application Fee." They do not ask for a security deposit, but so what! Bless their little greedy assets...After forcing someone to pay $400. ... [click to read full apartment review]

Chestnut Tower: Decent, with reservations (Recommending!)

2004-03-04T00:00:00-06:00

From chitownrob: I visited this property a few days ago and toured several units--all 1-bedrooms (Residences B, C and G). My first impression of the property as generally good. The exterior architecture of the building is unique, with a dramatic red/yellow color scheme and a large "eyelid" roof illuminated at night. The ... [click to read full apartment review]
