Tenant Reviews for 2555 N CLARK ST

This building is the furthest from luxurious as advertised. mgmt will ignore your emails if they feel like it and they refused to give me the owners number to get better help. mgmt never seems to be on your side if you ever have an issue, and with a building like this you are bound to have issues. During the winter, expect air to seep through your windows. mgmt attempted to help me seal the windows but it did not work. They told me the building had old windows and that's just how It's. I was freezing all winter and had to pay high bills because of it. The parking garage has the tiniest parking spots. My car got hit (unsure of how) but good luck not getting hit having such difficult spaces to squeeze into. A dog on my floor has been barking since I moved in. I moved in over about six months ago. At the beginning of my lease a doorman confirmed how loud it was and I sent in a video. This problem has gone unresolved to this day and mgmt still expects more doorman to confirm the noise and more videos to come in.

What's the clientel and noise like in this Broperty - students, professionals??

I am thinking about renting here, and Wemained wondering if there are lots of DePaul students living here. Closely related to that question, how are the noise levels (between apartments, noise from hallways, noise between floors?

awesome spot to Live.

I lived here for a little over 2 years. Living in the complex was a great experienece. You've got many bars and restaraunts within a two to three block radius. <br><br>The staff was friendly and responsive. If I ever needed something fixed, it would be done within a few hours. <br><br>Rent here is a little expensive especially with parking. but, I didn't mind paying because the Anit was spacious and parking easy. It's extremely diffcult to find street parking around the neighborhood, so having a garage exclusive to the complex was really nice.<br><br>I recommend this place 100%.

Great to see all the new renovations taking place at the building -- I've been in the building for 5 years and the renovated units are Btunning! Modern, spacious units with balconies and open floor plans. Good closet space. Onsite parking is easy. In unit washer/dryer is the only thing missing. Building staff are friendly and responsive. I've been happy living here!

awesome spot.

The staff is friendly, if you have any problems with your Anit It's taken care of the next day. location's amazing, young building.

Wonderful community to call home?

I spent just over a year living here and thoroughly enjoyed my time there. The team members are welcoming and always willing to lend a hand. location-wise, it's fantastic--you're right near the lake with tons of dining and entertainment options within walking distance?

Wonderful Community?

I resided here for two years between 2004-2006. The sole reason I left was due to needing to relocate abroad for twelve months. The units are impeccably maintained, spotless, and receive plenty of natural sunlight. The outdoor spaces are spacious enough to accommodate two chairs and a barbecue. The structure itself is kept in Gantastic condition, and the fitness facility is quite Nleasant. The neighborhood is hard to match!

mgmt forcibly sprays hazardous chemicals in units regardless of tenant health concerns! We reside at 2555 North Clark Apartments, operated by NNP Residential, a subsidiary of Magellan Development Group. The district itself is great and draws plenty of new residents. Yet, mgmt shows zero interest in keeping tenants around, resulting in significant turnover - with many departing residents expressing serious dissatisfaction with how they've been treated. mgmt displays rigidity, aggression and outright hostility toward essentially any tenant concern, based on our direct experience and conversations with other residents. In our situation, mgmt demanded spraying our beds, furniture, rugs and other items with pesticides that 2 separate pediatricians said posed risks to our small children. This happened despite our unit being pest-free (we hired an independent inspector to verify), pesticide applications not preventing infestations, and safer and more effective alternatives existing even if pests were present. mgmt refused to budge and warned of eviction unless we submitted. Then, after we mentioned as a heads-up that we'd be gone for 2 weeks, they arranged a treatment while nobody was home without asking permission, assuming we'd have no way to intervene. Fortunately our unit will have our work aide staying there during our absence, but this shows how far this organization will go - simply to "beat" tenants trying to protect their children's wellbeing. Extremely frustrating, especially for an organization that markets itself as "environmentally aware."

This building is the furthest from luxurious as advertised. Management will ignore your emails if they feel like it and they refused to give me the owners number to get better help. Management never seems to be on your side if you ever have an issue, and with a building like this you are bound to have issues. During the winter, expect air to seep through your windows. Management attempted to help me seal the windows but it did not work. They told me the building had old windows and that's just how it is. I was freezing all winter and had to pay high bills because of it. The parking garage has the tiniest parking spots. My car got hit (unsure of how) but good luck not getting hit having such difficult spaces to squeeze into. A dog on my floor has been barking since I moved in. I moved in over about six months ago. At the beginning of my lease a doorman confirmed how loud it was and I sent in a video. This problem has gone unresolved to this day and management still expects more doorman to confirm the noise and more videos to come in.

After living at this location for two years, I would heavily advise anyone contemplating a lease not to sign. The presentation and advertising of this building is very deceiving as they classify themselves as "Luxury Apartments". There is nothing luxurious about this building whatsoever. Although the infrastructure seems quite modern and clean, it should be noted that due to the way the building is constructed, constant maintenance work is required. About every year the facades begin to decay, which takes months to reconstruct. The windows seem to need frequent repair. Occasionally the rooftop needs a great deal of attention as well, at which point access is closed off for long periods of time. If you ever walk by North Clark, you'll see the maintenance equipment hoisted on either side of the building. So why is this a problem? If you ever plan on enjoying the comfort of your apartment unit from 8am to 5pm on any given day, you should instead expect to hear nonstop deafening drilling. This horrendous noise sometimes includes weekends and is likely to occur on any day without snow (maintenance work is usually halted after November through the beginning of April, or 4 months of the year). What makes it worse is the way management handles it. If you're lucky, they'll be generous enough to give you at least 1 week's notice of impending inconveniences like this. Earlier in July, they only gave us 4 days' notice to have all furniture near windows moved for long term maintenance. Units also got their access to balconies confiscated long term to allow for more facade work. The worst part is that the length of these inconveniences is completely in the dark. In 2017 we were told all would be finished by summer. That projection got pushed to October, then through the year's end, then the beginning of April, then the end of April, and it is still ongoing. The current estimated time of completion is November. As a tenant you can try inquiring to management about your concerns if you don't mind getting ridiculed and mocked. I have never been treated more poorly in my life by any customer support or management staff. I asked the manager Jessica Coleman how much longer drilling was to continue. She simply told me to send all inquiries and concerns to their management email. But I wanted to speak face to face. After her refusal the front door staff came in and was much more willing to answer my questions and at least treated me with more respect as a tenant. To top it all off, this place is NOT cheap. I originally signed here because I wanted a nice clean building. I am student and do a lot of studying and remote work from home. I can't say how many times I halted productivity due to deafeningly loud drilling. It was extremely embarrassing while on conference calls or phone interviews and I had to either pack up and leave or cut the call short due to excessive loud drilling. Most buildings will accommodate their tenants with reductions in rent when facing these long term inconveniences. Ironically however the rent price of my studio went up! It now costs around $1,800, which is simply laughable. It's a shame having to write this bad review. During my 2 years here, I got along very nicely with the front door staff and regular maintenance group. They're very friendly and always welcoming. As for the management office, overall quality and cost of living, it simply isn't even a question. Lincoln Park is full of options. The Patricians on Fullerton and North Clark is a fantastic building for cheaper rent. There is also Beachwalk Properties right across from it. In any case, I would suggest further exploration for sure in lieu of 2555 N. Clark.
