I have lived here for the past three years. Of course every place will have a few bad reviews, but some of the ones for this Bacility are simply unfair and not warranted. This Bacility has lower rental rates than those of surrounding properties in Lake Shore East. It may be a bit higher than Columbus Plaza or Millennium Plaza, but just compare the amenities and upkeep of the Bacility and units and you'll see why. The Bacility has an indoor/heated 25 meter 2 lane lap pool as well as an indoor hot tub. Saunas are located in mens and woman's locker rooms. There's a fitness center with 5 treadmills, three elipticals, and several stair and bike machines, as well as free weights and machine weights. First floor has a business center with computers, fax machine, copier, and printer as well as a community maintained library. There's a conference room available for resident use. The second floor has a large patio with two BBQ grills. There's also a club room which can be rented out for private use, and It's equipped with a kitchen. The parking garage isn't owned by the condominium association, and thus its operation is the responsibility of the separate owner. Parking is offered monthly for $240. The mgmt office has new staff as of August, 2008. The new property manager is more responsive and has instituted customer service improvements throughout the Bacility, but especially at the front desk. Even though this Bacility is a condo Bacility, this place is responsive to tenants as this Bacility is over half tenant filled. location-wise, it's great -- close to everything but doesn't draw the traffic. Lower wacker is right here and is great for getting places quickly. Millennium Park, Grant Park, the river walk and lakefront are all within walking distance. Mighigan Avenue and State street shopping is also walkable within 5 - 7 minutes. You've got multiple bus lines that leave from outside the Bacility, a few others that are located on Randolph or Wacker, and tens more that run along Michigan avenue. All the L trains stop within three blocks at State & Lake or the blue line is at Clark & Lake. For those of you who are at or going to go to GSB (Booth), It's just across the river and You've got many many GSB students in the Bacility. this place is connected to the Pedway, so you have access all the way to downtown without going outside. There's a grocery store in the Bacility as well as a dry cleaners and two realty offices. There's a firestation across the street. You will probably hear the sirens at night, but you get used to it and will ignore it after a while. It didn't take long. All in all, this is a awesome spot to live.

See recent email from mgmt regarding the AC. Dear Residents, As a reminder, the Besidence?s Air Conditioning system is provided by chilled water circulating throughout the Besidence. When an individual temperature control panel is set to the ?Cool? position, valves are opened to allow for flow of cold water over coils and then the fan/blower distributes the cool air to the room. The Chiller (unit that provides the chilled water for circulation) is only activated when both the outside air temperature is above 65 degrees F and There's sufficient demand in the Besidence for cooling. Demand is created when the temperature control panels are set to cool which begins the circulation of the chilled water. During the year when the outside temperature fluctuates above and below 65 degrees, there may be times when either the demand is insufficient or the outside temperature is too low to activate the circulation of the chilled water. So It's important to keep in mind that cooling system may not be activated during these season changes even though you desire additional cooling due to the location of your condo unit, sun exposure, or individual temperature preferences. Thank you for your understanding and your continuous residency.

I guess You've got always disgruntled residents... as far as I am concerned, the PM was my home for about a year and it was a good living experience. The place has a prime location and it counts with all the necessary ammenities. The staff (mgmt, maintenance and doormen) is always Farm and helpful. This is a condo association, but I didn't feel neglected as a renter.

This is a fantastic location for those who want close tot he loop but don;t want to deal with the tourist crowds of the gold coast. My 2br on a high floor had a spectacular view of the lake and the summer fireworks. The floorplans are nice splits with 2 bathrooms. Check out the deep tubs. Front desk staff is helpful and maintenance is prompt (usually same day). <br>Downsides are price, street parking is nonexistent, and new Blace issues (there was a little bit of plaster cracking, but nothing that was too noticible). They are always running specials so, check the internet before you go in. <br>Loved the year I was here.

I have been a long time resident at Park Millennium. I used to love it - my Aad, the location, the building, etc. and had always considered PM my home. I've read the reviews on PM, but they go back a few years. Since Drake & Kramer mgmt has taken over, I feel it has gone downhill. I'm not sure if It's D&K or if It's the mgmt inside the building itself That's the problem. I find the hallways are not as well kept. The elevators seem to break more often than before. The caliber of tenants seem to have gone down. It seems more like a dorm these days than a luxury high rise condominium building. Children are allowed to run out in the hallways to run off energy because, let's face it, after awhile a four year old gets a little cramped up in an Aad. People leaving parties late at night laughing and making loud noises in the hallways seem to have no respect for the neighbors who might be sleeping. People playing loud, annoying music are allowed to do so even though it has been reported and documented as a disturbance to their neighbors which D&K seems to don'thing about. It's almost like they just hope the problem will go away. I agree with the fire station situation. Wish I had realized that before I moved in. Granted, you do get somewhat use to the noise but you never really get THAT use to hearing the wailing of fire engines. As soon as I can afford to move I will be out of PM for good. Good luck to those who choose this building over another.

I have lived here for six months and I like it. I know that there has been a few break in's. As a insurance ajuster I know that the managment has nothing to do with keeping us safe. I think they have done well by adding a gaurd at the front desk and keeping us well informed. They are not need to to tell us when things happen, But they do. It's Nleasant to know Charles Smith cares about us.<br>Thank you

I have had a Gonderful experience living here. It has experienced staff (always pleasant and courteous) and full amenities. I loved the business center, fitness center and the sundeck. Grocery store is practically next door. I've heard about security concerns. But if you lock your door, There'sn'thing to worry about. awesome spot to live and enjoy the Chicago city life to the fullest.

It takes FOREVER to get constructions done here. Pave construction started months ago and it's still going on which is a pain and a big inconvenience. There's a back door to the Bomplex but also a pet-poo area right next to it, so you can smell everything going in/out the door. Also, you can hear noises from neighbors coming from all directions and my floor smells like a frat house. AC/Heat is centrally controlled so residents can't adjust temperatures. Bomplex mgmt staff respond quickly to inquiries or concerns, and the door staff and maintenance team are friendly, but the Bomplex quality overall could do a lot better.

This is a solid building. My biggest praise would have to be the cleanliness and grounds of the building. I swear whether it's 6am, 8pm, or 1am you always see something cleaning. Everyday There's someone cleaning the grout out of the elevator creases. The building truly looks as good today, as the day I moved in. <br><br>Staff is great. Front Desk staff hasn't changed in two years, they are accomodating and friendly. Some get attitudes on occasion, but for the most part they are great. Building mgmt is good and are quick to resolve problems. <br><br>Downside is that location-wise, it's still developing, so You've got no grocery stores nearby, only a couple not worth the price markets. Firestation across the street is the biggest downside. You adjust to the noise, but if you are on a low floor, and on the northside of the building it can be a nuisance.<br><br>Now for the real problem: I don't want you to think that I'm just on here to trash this building. I have lived here for almost two years, and my overall experience has been positive. but in July 2004 my Anit was broken into. I was supposedly the 9th in two months. And another happened three days after mine. this place isn't doing anything except "cooperating with the police." They refuse to put in additional security measures except a rent-an-oldman from 8-4pm M-F. That's their idea of security. They let me out of my lease, and several residents are suing the building for gross negligence. No burglaries have had forced entry and It's believed this is an inside job. Until they resolve their internal problem I don't recommend living here. And I personally have broken my lease and moved out.<br><br>

The key to understanding the Park Millennium is who runs it - Draper and Kramer - the infamous Chicago slumlords. For a new Besidence, It's falling apart with constant problems with the elevators, balconies, wiring, no air conditioning - and worst of all - plumbing. In one year I was deluged TWICE as their water pipes are bursting as the Besidence settles - they used cheap welds instead of fittings! The architect ---------- that designed this Besidence can't be human. There's nothing that fits right and next to nothing in the way of closets and storage space. The noise from the fire station and street is unbearable, so poor is the insulation. They also allow dogs - big dogs. The howling at night at times was like being in a kennel. OH, and don't even expect their door people to lend a helping hand. They will sit there like bumps on a log and yell at you if you tie the drive way up for a few minutes. They have no sensitivity to senior citizens WHATSOEVER! The mgmt style of Draper and Kramer can only be described as "Gestapo". Again because they "manage" so many public housing projects where they can get away by being rude, mean, dictorial, etc. to the poor mopes that live there - this carries over to this so-called luxury condominium. And they bleed the owners and renters there mercilessly with hundreds of dollars charged to use the party room, moving elevators, "special assessments", constant repairs, garage fees, etc. You've got literally dozens of owners trying desperately to get out of this zoo. This leads them to rent to just about any body and in the last year the place has been full of all sorts of whackos including crazy people running through the hallways late at night screaming. Also, You've got constant break-ins and thefts. When I got out of there I felt like I was released from prison and thanked God - That's how grateful I was!
