2009-05-21T15:27:41-06:00

From amy4friend: The shoreham is an amazing apartment. It has a very friendly staff. We had to break our lease in between and they cooperated with us a lot.

The Shoreham: Keep looking!!! (Not Recommending)

2009-02-27T17:04:05-06:00

From goddess791: I would agree that the grounds and building are nice from the outside. For as much money as I pay every month I expect to be totally happy with every aspect of my home. Most door attendants are friendly but the management is unprofessional and harsh. When I moved in ... [click to read full apartment review]

From -Anonymous-: I've now lived at The Shoreham just over a year and to be honest, I don't know if I'll ever be able to leave-especially if staff stays the same.

2008-06-19T05:32:16-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I'll make this quick- Very nice living arrangement and great building. This building has higher rent, but it's deserved with its amenities.

The Shoreham: Overratted (Not Recommending)

2008-01-27T12:57:25-06:00

From -Anonymous-: After living in several different places, I found the Shoreham to be overpriced.

2007-01-07T17:20:02-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I just moved into The Shoreham not too long ago because of a job transfer.

The Shoreham: Great place to live (Recommending!)

2006-12-22T12:04:16-06:00

From ChrissiR: I can't complain about the Shoreham at all. The noise others complained about, is no problem (maybe I have just great neighbors), I can hear the front door of my neighbor closing but that's about it.

Still having a nice view of Lake Michigan (apartment with E/S view), top-to-floor windows and ... [click to read full apartment review]

The Shoreham: Shoreham=Love (Recommending!)

2006-11-26T13:30:13-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I've read the reviews, and I have to say that I cannot agree with what most people are saying. I recently moved into the building and was very pleased with the entire moving process. My leasing agent was very professional and was able to answer all of my questions. Since ...

The Shoreham: nowhere near as nice for the price (Not Recommending)

2006-08-13T13:16:14-06:00

From -Anonymous-: You literally can hear your upstairs neighbor flushing toilets...not a pleasant sound!

The amenities are nice, but the fact that we can't control our housing temps are burdensome.

If you are looking for peace and quiet inside your apartment, THIS IS NOT THE PLACE! ... [click to read full apartment review]

2006-05-27T22:06:19-06:00

From cnw4400: When I moved here in September, 2005, I didn't mind paying nearly $2600 a month for one of the top floor 2 bedroom apartments with an absolute
fantastic view of Lake Michigan, Oak Street beach, Navy Pier, etc. However, that has all changed with the towering condos they are building. ... [click to read full apartment review]

The Shoreham: Pretty nice, but way overpriced. (Recommending!)

2006-05-17T14:14:03-06:00

From -Anonymous-: For the most part, I have really enjoyed my time here. There is fairly easy access to Lake Shore Dr, Lower Wacker to get to the major highways, and all of the major roads downtown. "Lower Lower" Wacker (by the inpound lot) is scary because of all of the people ... [click to read full apartment review]

The Shoreham: Great experience! But exorbitant rents are driving me away! (Recommending!)

2006-05-15T21:28:16-06:00

From Beltway: I enjoyed my stay here. When I first moved in my apartment wasnﾀﾙt ready. So they gave me a two bedroom for the price of one with spectacular views of Lake Michigan, Navy Pier and the Chicago River.

The Shoreham: Leasing Agents and Management are IDIOTS (Not Recommending)

2006-04-02T06:02:12-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Want to have the most frustrating move-in experience of your life? Just as you think the frustration is about to end when you get into your apartment..guess again!! The frustration continues. Stay away from Noel, a leasing agent. He is so scatter-brained and unorganized it's ridiculous. Sarah the senior leasing ... [click to read full apartment review]

The Shoreham: oooops I made a mistake (Not Recommending)

2006-04-02T00:16:04-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Well saying I made a mistake isn't quite fair. "I was duped" is a better way of expressing the experience that I had from the shoreham. At first, they promise the sun moon and stars, as would most sales people. The acutality of it is a poorly insulated overpriced apartment. ... [click to read full apartment review]

The Shoreham: Loud and over priced (Not Recommending)

2006-04-01T19:46:47-06:00

From -Anonymous-: While the Shoreham has nice views and great location (if you don't need to walk to the L daily), the walls are paper thin (despite what they tell you), the staff while nice give a lot of lip service to things, and prices go up astronomically without any notice e.g, ...

The Shoreham: OK but WAY overpriced (Recommending!)

2006-03-08T00:01:16-06:00

From notincrediblyimpressed: I moved to this building because I wanted a full service building in the heart of Chicago, what I got was far from it.

2006-02-20T18:04:14-06:00

From -Anonymous-: After the building we were living in went condo, the leasing staff at The Shoreham went out of their way to get us the apartment we wanted. We grabbed the last available unit with the floor plan we wanted, although it didn't have the color scheme we preferred. A week ... [click to read full apartment review]

The Shoreham: I was just a visitor, but. . . (Recommending!)

2006-02-12T23:06:06-06:00

From -Anonymous-: For a building that's supposed to be luxury, I find some of the doormen to be way too casual. The whole neighborhood is talking about it. I actually heard one of them tell a tenant, "This isn't Manhattan, you'll just have to get used to it."
Plus one of the elevators ... [click to read full apartment review]

2005-08-02T14:37:06-06:00

From -Anonymous-: We moved in about a month ago and just love the building. It very conveinent to activities (very close to the Lake trail for running and biking), Milenium Park is just across the street for concerts and the film festival.

The Shoreham: If They Build It, Will People Come? (Recommending!)

2005-07-02T19:52:14-06:00

From chitownrob: I took a tour of The Shoreham today and was underwhelmed by the sense of isolation from the rest of the city, poor availability of good views, higher than average prices and bland architectural detailing of the building.

In all fairness, The Shoreham is still months away from being complete--the top ... [click to read full apartment review]
