The mgmt team is the worst I have ever seen in any business! They are rude and unhelpful. I think It's a halfway house for hotel workers! You can get a Gutstanding rate. It's close to the water. That´s it. Everything else about this whole operation sucks!

Maintenance is unreliable and take weeks to complete anything. The staff are Riscourteous and unknowledgable. but, the rehabed units are livable for the right price.

This is an old Besidence. Lots of street noise, even on the 17th floor with all the windows closed. Hot water goes out once every other months. Garbage shoots have been closed for over 6 months due to "maintenance." Poorly painted and maintained. Fitness center is a joke. Basement (where the laundry is) floods on a regular basis. The lobby and the individual apts have charming layouts and Ahenomenal views, though. If you don´t care about the other stuff and just want a cool view for a reasonable price - go for it. No one seems to stay there long.

I live on the 10th floor in a studio unit..Even though I dont have the lake view.. I am happy with my Auite. It has been completely rehabbed and everything is bland new but the kitchen! I have not had any bug problems so far thank God, neither did I have any problems with any of the staff. On the contrary..Everyone has been respectful, I have never seen or hear any of my neighbors, no police calls, bad experiences, etc.. The walls are nice and thick so barely any sound goes in and out. I like to keep my windows open over the year and i enjoy the breeze from the river. I also own an dog and everyone has been extremely pet friendly! The staff is amazing, everyone always acknowledges each others presence and says hello. The mini mart employees are ggggreeeaatt!!! Best Indian people I have ever met. The food is great at a good price.. $5.00 for a sandwich and $1.75 for a large Caribou Coffee.. I have so far loved my experience here and will continue to do so =) oo..I suppose street parking sucks 0_0

I moved a month ago and can understand running out of patience with the construction. The space itself is Gantastic. The staff is WONDERFUL! I came here from another high rise and 1400 LSD staff is just SO MUCH NICER! I don't think you can find a better deal in town. <br><br>I will agree parking is painful - I had a rental car last week and each night I spent 30 minutes looking for zone parking and ended up 4 blocks away.

This mgt.co sucks and doesn't care about you if you are a renter!! There's work being done on the roof ("terrace"), the floors, and the side of bldg that faces Schiller Street. I moved here 8/05 in order to live in a nice studio and live close to work and save some $$. I was told the place was being bought and that my lease would be good for the year that I signed. No problem with any of that but little did I realize that there would be creepy "day laborers" (heard they're illegals) running around drilling, hammering and using the passenger elevators 24/7. When I leave for work in the morning (7:45 to 8:15 approx.) these workers are tying up the elevators. It takes 20 to 25 mins to get to the first floor! Give yourself a half-hour head start to get the hell out of the bldg! These workers go from 20th floor to the 18th or 19th with carts of grimy tools, 2x4's, etc. I swear, you end up stopping on 5 or 6 floors because of the idiots and none of them speak English. As a female, I am uncomfortable with these freaks in the hallways. They are all scummy-looking and stare a lot while speaking in Spanish. They definitely are not legit and are probably from right out of the jungles of Central America. I live on a high floor & noticed them taking break after break, taking pictures of the Lake with camera phones & a camcorders. No wonder it's taking them triple the time to compete this job. Of course nevermind the shoddy workmanship. I have a large studio at a great rent price so this has been a give-and-take thing with me. I heard that the roof won't be done until September so I will probably stay at least until August. If I choose to stay after the lease expires it will be month-by-month. A helluva a lot of people have moved out. A lot of them are younger. The way I look at it normally 20-somethings have more patience, so if THEY want out it's must be a unpleasant! I wouldn't reccomend this place unless you need a quick place or are in some sort of transition phase of your life! One last thing... they don't seem to give proper 24 hr notice if they need to enter your apt!! How they get around this is that they drop off a notice after they leave with the prior date on the notice! This mgt. co. is Rctually rude.

I am beyond fed up with this building. Hidden-fees, no communication, and just rude people. I have lived here for a year now and keep finding myself running into "hidden" fees that are just randomly showing up. I truly believe the building sees they are running low on expenses, so a new regulation or fee randomly pops up- a way for them to gather money when needed. Although, my Anit and scene is Btunning in every way; the people that run this building are all rude and schisters. You know the type of people that hate life so much they want your life to be just as miserable as theirs? This is MR. GREEN in a nutshell. Although he SEES you everyday and has proof that you live there- if you are running late or may have forgotten your key, he won't let you in REGARDLESS. One incident left me having to nap in the LOBBY one night because I had forgotten my fob to get to the elevators.... No joke. He is by far the most rude person I have ever met in my life and he won't be missed. My Anit was one of the 15 places that was put up for auction in the middle of the year, which made my roommate and I cut a month early from our lease and left us stranded to find a new place asap. inconvenient and not fair- leaving us to not get ONE beneficial aspect out of it. Parking sucks, maintenance is GREAT, elevators suck- at least 2 of the 3 don't work weekly, the easy store is awesome, the dog store is unnecessary and the rooftop is gorgeous (the 3 months you can actually be up there).

I enjoyed the character of my apartment, and i loved my view... but, i wish things had gone more smoothly... <br> <br>First, my rent was too high in the first place... that was my fault, due to what neighborhood I had chosen. Second, the water system in the building was sad... always being shut off, drains always having to be cleared (and taking a couple of days to do so - one time it was so bad that grimy water came up into my sink from the drain!). Third, everything had way too many coats of paint on it. Forth, the windows NEVER got cleaned (something commonly necessary on Chicago skyscrapers). Fifth, and worst - whatever I might have saved on rent in the beginning was more than made up for by the COMPLETELY unreasonable move-out charges. For the amount of money I was charged, you might think I had DESTROYED my apartment, which wasn't that case... and NO response to my inquiries on the matter. Be prepared with lots of extra cash when you leave! <br> <br>Overall... the apartment was great, but wasn't worth the expense AT ALL.

When I looked at these apartments I was impressed with the unique structures and the staff's super friendly. The building seemed luxurious but affordable. But everything changed when I moved in. The maintenance is a joke. My light in my kitchen had to fall down and my windows had to blow out from the wind before someone got up here to fix them. The staff is rude and uncaring; they forget to sign in packages and put mail in the wrong slots. Recently I've had bugs start to crawl out of my sink and I've also found bugs burrowed in my clean clothes. The laundry is expensive, the dishwashers don't clean dishes, the water is white and FULL of flavor, i have no water pressure in the shower, the elevators are moldy ovens, and the halls smell like crap. At least now after living in this hole I know what to look for in a good apartment: everything that this one doesn't have! Oh and also, they're trying to turn the apartments into condos. I kept having to show my apartment time after time again to the same people, at all times of the day. The elevators are packed full on open house days and it just doesn't feel like a home. I'm tired of being in this place full of false promises and hopes. If you want a nice lake view in the gold coast, go over to 1350/1360 LSD. They have their ---- together over there.
