Noise? Are you KIDDING me?
I lived here a few years ago, had a pretty nice Western view of the city, things were lovey.. until I the Brown Line EL came around the corner and down the track. Whatever flavor of windows they used during construction are not not not designed to eliminate or perhaps even reduce noise from sources outside the building. Of ANY type. Sorry, but for whatEVER rent I'm paying, it's gotta be quiet. So, the North side of the building has the most exposure to the EL and Wells / Division traffic; the South side.. there's a lovely grammar school right there and, oh, yes, the playing field for Payton college prep right over THERE as well.... more noise, anyone? Unless the management's altered things, holidays are pretty non-fun. While I was there one of the tenants had set up a small display for Yom Kippur, I believe. The ignorant / idiot manager reMOVED it. AND certain Christmas Tree ornaments. I think she was summarily fired, but not until her transgressions became too disgusting to ignore. Take EVERY apartment ad or promotion you see as being written by someone in LA-LA-LAND. They're not going to tell you about the real nitty-gritty. Parking? NOT adequate. Medical and personal-care service folks canNOT park in the lot. Parking is also restricted in the lane in front of the building, even THOUGH it does not belong to the building, it is a PUBLIC way, not private, and no restrictive signage is legal there. DON'T park next to the (back of the) adjacent building, however, they DO tow. I'll go revisit the place, there is someone there I'd like to see again. ;)Share This Review
