Tenant Reviews for 245 E CHICAGO AVE

We have lived at other apartments but that is what they felt like, an apartment. The Streeter is amazing. The Streeter has been HOME and that is due to the management and the tone that is set by them!! The Management Team is awesome! When we first moved here we intended on staying a year or two the most, but now 7 years later we must move on to another chapter in our life and that next chapter involves leaving Chicago, otherwise we would not be leaving The Streeter. Life here has been the best. The location is amazing. The building is attractive and clean. Maintenance to housekeeping to door staff to mailroom/cleaners staff care about residents first and foremost. We love The Streeter!!!

we recently moved in to the streeter from another village green property and although fairly happy at our previous location the streeter has welcome us to our new home. Dean at the office has been fabulous with great attention to detail and excellent customer service, so far we haven't had any complains and the staff has been good to us. more than likely to renew when our least comes up in about 1 year

Better value for your dollar available.

I lived at the Streeter for a year and would definitely be renewing my lease if I wasn't moving. The building is clean, modern, and has a great location and views. The gym is great and it's never too crowded, many times I had it to myself. The staff and doormen are great, always friendly and courteous. I'm gonna miss living here for sure.

From the location, to the views, to the management staff...it has been a pleasure to be a resident here. The gym has everything needed and there enough equipment so there is no wait time. The sauna, jacuzzi, and steam room just add to the relaxing and inviting environment. Dean, one of the managers, has been incredibly proactive and informative in terms of the moving process. He is also always friendly and takes the time to say hello and make sure everything is going smoothly. Donna is also another friendly and positive manager at the Streeter who takes the time as well to say hello and to ask if everything is going okay. The attention of the staff is just an added bonus to this luxurious apartment building. My view includes part of Lake Michigan, a peek of the River, the Sears tower, and the NBC tower. The floor to ceiling windows. allows so much sunlight that we do not need lights on during the day.

Originally we rented at The Streeter to have a convienient "in town" closer to my husband's work, the airport for my work and the hospital for my cancer treatments. It turned out to be such a wonderful experience we renewed the lease for an additional year. We spent so much time at the pool, health club, walking to nearby resturants, shopping and utilizing neighborhood spas that we we not using our beautiful suburban home. We ended up selling our home because the staff maintains the building at at a high level which allowed us to let go of control that home ownership gave us and just enjoy our lives. The management team and all of the staff take pride in the building. We renewed through 2016 and will most likely renew again. We love the carefree lifestyle and beautiful views. The location really works for our fast paced lives. Thanks to Management and Staff for making our lives easy. I highly recommend this building.

My wife and I have lived here since August and are already planning to re-up our lease for another year. We love the location, the staff, and the building's amenities are incredible. I would strongly recommend this to anyone who wants to live in the city, but still have a "neighborhood feel". Also, they allow large dogs -- for those looking for a building that allows large dogs, this is a huge plus. With that being said, everything is always clean, the free coffee/tea is nice, and the workout classes (while I don't attend) are a nice perk.

I have been in the Streeter for over a month and I could not be happier that I moved here. The building is sleek and sexy, but still maintains a feeling of warmth. The leasing crew and maintenance staff have been fantastic to work with. They help make this the easiest move I have ever made. My apartment is everything I have dreamed about. I have a Million dollar view and with amenities to match. The Streeter has met and surpassed all of my expectations, and I do not see myself moving anytime soon.

The Streeter is a decent rental building but does not stand out above any others. But many things about it I do not understand The lobby itself which should be a huge selling point is something out of 1950's. The décor is questionable with a funky magazine rack, oddly placed coffee station and tile floor that was popular in 1950's magazines and movies. The paint colors chosen for the lobby and 13th floor amenity floor are just something out of a doctor's office, not exactly a mint green but really stomach turning. Their package area is at a dry cleaners counter. It's pretty unattractive. Their gym is set up so if you are doing cardio you are watching the people in the sauna area. Oh....that's entertaining thank you. I was told they are redoing all the units and renovating the hallway floors one by one. But they haven't even been open for a decade so someone should have been more savvy when they did the initial design and décor. The old hallways are less than attractive, I saw them later, something right out of an old dank hotel. The units are nothing to brag about. The upgrades are being done in flash time and no quality is involved so says my brother who used to live there. I chose Hubbard Place after the tour I had at The Streeter. They are worlds and decades apart!!!!!!!!!

I am proud to say that I have lived at The Streeter from 2007 till this day. I LOVE IT!!! The first time I walked into the lobby it felt like home. The location itself is great- lakefront, Michigan Avenue, public transportation and last but not least the incredible view. I get a gorgeous view of Lake Michigan from the floor to ceiling windows. The amenities the building offers is one of a kind. The party room, business center, library, gym, pool and basketball court are are extremely nice, always clean and constantly updated and renovated. The building also offers free coffee, tea and popcorn. The washer and dryers in the unit is very accommodating for the residents. The Streeter stands apart from other rentals in the downtown area for the events, parties and classes they offer. I have attended Super Bowl parties, pool events with a DJ, holiday events with prizes, yoga and boot camp classes all free of charge. This has been a great way for me to get to know my neighbors. The #1 reason I have stayed here at The Streeter is because of the staff. I have found them to be friendly, attentive, personable and hard working. Every time I have placed a work order the engineers are efficient and the job is done in a timely manner. The doormen know my name, my family members names and my friends names and that means a lot to me. I feel very safe having the doormen see me coming home and they call me every time a visitor arrives and that also make me feel safe. The management is great. They listen and are available for discussion and very approachable. J.P. is the manager and he always has time if I have a question. He is attentive and truly wants each tenant to enjoy living at The Streeter. He takes the time to get to know the residents. I am always greeted with a smile and hello from the management office. These are reasons why I continue to resign my lease year after year. If you want great customer service I highly recommend The Streeter.
