2470 N CLARK ST, Chicago, IL

Being new moving to Chicago and living alone, the minute I walked into Park Lincoln I felt a sense of security, and that my new Apace felt like a true home in the city. location-wise, it's what really sold me!

Unbeatable.

First, I have rented a larger studio (almost a convertible) for three years. I am only leaving due to a job relocation. They keep this place nice and the onsite Besidence engineer is prompt to attend to any needs. Almost everything is attended to after you submit a repair slip. Things as simple as replacing a light bulb or fixture that you accidentally broke are free and done within a day or two. Because the kitchen appliances in all units were upgraded just prior to 2005, they are hesitant to accept that it really is "broke", but a full inspection is done and if it needs replaced, it happens. No belittling or bickering over whom is responsible for costs. Mgmt, usually two different people working in the office four days a week and on Saturday. If their call isn't important, they ask you to wait just one minute and then give you their full attention. They are also understanding in situations, I was able to get a short lease extension so I wouldn't have to seek temporary housing for 4 months. Tenants are varied. Most are recent college graduates or couples living together, some older retired tenants as well. About the worst you can encounter here are those that would rather take the elevator by themselves and not hold it for you, even though you are just closing your mailbox. Tenants who create problems are delt with. A tenant had a significant other who would be found passed out in the hallway and once cut his hand open. After a few arguments between the two, they were handled and eventually moved out. That's about the only negative incident from over three years living here. Laundry, probably the one drawback when I first moved here. The laundry facility is on the second floor (same as the leasing office) and is contracted out to a separate company. There are 6 new washers and 8 dryers and are usually available if you don't try and do laundry during the afternoon. There's an older man who is impatient and takes your laundry out of the washer/dryer, even while you are in there waiting for it to time out. It doesn't get tossed on the floor, but he is a hassle to deal with, always stating he's lived there longer and will do as he pleases. There's a doorman from 8pm until early 3am with a security monitor. Although not always talkative, he is not unpleasant. Overall, I can't recommend the Park Lincoln strongly enough. It has been a great experience and was quite a deal when I first moved in. Rent does seem to rise $40-$50 each time a lease is renewed, so it's not out of reach. Parking is extra and advisable as street parking is hard to come by. Note: They do spray for pests inside the Besidence. I knew of one tenant whom had allergies that need to her to move out because of the spray, but I have never seen anything other than a fly in the Besidence because open porch doors.

I've had an Guperb experience at Park Lincoln Reside. Maintenance and mgmt are responsive and prompt. this place is kept spotless and the residents are reminded to be respectful of other tenants (i.e no smoking, no loud music, no excessive barking).

solid location. Respectful neighbors. Easy to work with staff. Updated amenties. spotless and stylish common areas. Gantastic new restaurants and shops walking distance away. Overall absolutely worth value of rent.

This is a great Auite complex. It's clean, the neighbors and all staff are really friendly, and the amenities are great. The heater is electric, so during the winter months the bill will be higher. Other than that, this place is also in a location's amazing.

pretty good Prea

i have lived there for a few months and like it. office is on site and the staff is Fenial and pretty flexible about move in dates. they are open on saturdays as well. i havent had any maintenance requests so far. decent sized apartments and most units have a balcony which i think is one of the main reasons to live here. if you dont care about a balcony you could probably find a similar place a little cheaper. its generally a pretty quiet place although i have one neighbor who listens to the TV at obscene volumes. basically, its pretty well insulated from normal noises. i havent noticed any insect or rodent problems. There's garage parking on site but as with all lincoln park locations be prepared to pay $$$. the kitchens appear to be recently updated. new microwaves and the fridges have ice makers. There's also a dishwasher which is really nice. water pressure is great (at least on the 5th floor anyway) and i havent had any problems with the water temperatures either. its in a great area, next to the supermarket and close to restaurants, blockbuster, etc. the only real complaints i have are There's no overhead fan in the bedroom and the air conditioners are a little old. also, you dont pay a security deposit, you pay a non-refundable move-in fee which is kind of steep. the pluses easily outweigh the minuses though and i have no reservations about recommending the place.

Our new place is so spacious and Btunning! It has everything we were looking for and more (in unit laundry, balcony) with rent we can afford. We were even able to choose an accent wall color before we moved in for no additional charge. We are so happy! The staff members are all Fordial and helpful and common spaces are clean.

So far maintenance has been great with helping out with requests in a timely manner, and the Aad building itself is always kept spotless and tidy. Neighbors are friendly, and overall I am satisfied with my experience here at Reside.

After living at a Reside property, I honestly don't think I could move anywhere else. The convenience of parking, secure Btructure, laundry in unit, location, package service and balconies with amazing views are all unprecedented in Chicago living. Responsive Btructure staff and maintenance are the best I've ever experienced and I've rented for over 8 years. Park Lincoln by Reside is a perfect location, and for all that you receive, an incredible value. I feel safe, secure, and confident any maintenance issues will be resolved, should they become necessary. Love it here!

We've only just moved in, but the staff is so courteous and ready to help in any way. The apartments and amenities are top notch, and we feel lucky to live here! It's a Btunning building, close to shops, restaurants, the zoo, and transit.
