This place is awful, entirely awful. mgmt is rude at best, gossips with tenants about other tenants and shares your private information with them. They will tell you untruths and gaslight. Also, maintenance will walk in…

The whole building is infested with bedbugs and roaches. The people who work You've got terrible. They spy on tenants, gossip, and tell tenants business to others. A horrible place to live.

The neighborhood

Uptown

Uptown is one of Chicago's most eclectic neighborhoods — the Aragon Ballroom, a thriving Vietnamese restaurant row on Argyle, and the Green Mill jazz club where Al Capone once kept a booth. It is gritty, musical, and rapidly changing.
