“My fiance and I moved into the Chestnut tower in November and could not be happier with the location, apartment, and the staff's super friendly. Parking: It's expensive, but That's what you get for a reserved, covered spot in a prime location. Apartment: Two words: Washer/Dryer. In the unit. Yes-It's basically what sold us on the building when we toured it. For a bit extra a month we opted for hardwood floors throughout. You can also pay for upgraded applicances. Having those options is amazing! Our one bedroom (almost 900sq feet) has great closet space and with free storage in the basement allows us to keep things that we don't need out of the way. Amenities: The gym is small but the equipment is nice and for the most part always available when you want to work out. Its perfect for those really cold mornings when you don't want to walk to the gym. Dry clearner on site is soo easy. this place is newer and everything is clean. Club Room is great and you can't beat the views on the rooftop deck. Dog run is super easy for residents who have furry friends. Staff: Friendly, available and always willing to help out. We love the Chestnut Tower and recommend to renters who are willing to pay a bit more for the location and amenities.”

“Having moved in quite recently we haven't experienced too much of the community. We especially like the doormen - they are all extremely kind and helpful. We are also excited to participate in the next resident event advertised in the elevator.”

“A Cristine, quality and legit residence conveniently located and competitively priced with all the key amenities. The overall layouts and designs of the units satisfy the needs of today's young working professionals. A awesome spot to live in Chicago!”

“solid Bacility in a Pmpeccable location. mgmt is responsive (maintenance issues dealt with same day) and always making improvements to the amenities / common areas. The gym is small but well-equipped, and There's a dry cleaner onsite. No pool, but the roof deck makes up for it with nice seating and an amazing view of the city.”

“My wife and I have lived at Chestnut Tower with our 2 small dogs for the past 2 years and can't say enough about how positive this experience was. The staff is so friendly and helpful, they go above and beyond to accomodate requests and answer questions. In particular, the property manager, Lauren, is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and responsive. The maintenance crew is extremely attentive and adept and the residents are always cordial and friendly. The buildiong hosts a ton of events such as resident happy hours or dinners and social events. This is the first apartment we have ever lived in where we truly looked forward to coming home. As far as the actual apartment goes, It's spacious for a downtown apartment, the in-unit washer in dryer was a god send, we have never heard a peep from our neighbors below or above us in 2 years and if you have dogs this place can't be beat. The attached dog park is easy and all of the dogs in the building love playing out there. As you might imagine, we would absolutely recommend living at Chestnut Tower to anyone, you wont be disappointed!”

“Fffable neighbors off all ages. Staff helpful and willing to assist in any and all matters. Apartments are big (particularly with 3 bed/3 bath) with hardwood floors and great views of the Chicago skylines. The only thing I would change is their heating/cooling system, which seems to have two settings: way too hot, or cold.”

“I'm considering moving out. Not sure why I pay the money I do for a pretty Sramped studio. I was bought in by the washer and dryer, but the surrounding area is totally skechy. I never feel safe.”

“The staff here are Gutstanding. Repairs and issues solved quickly and completely. They just upgraded the roof deck, the workout room and dog park (2014). Location is honestly Gutstanding and parking garage good for the area. Chestnut is a quiet street, yet Clark and LaSalle are busy so never have to wait long for a cab.”

“Overall Gantastic value for place. this place is well run and the staff is extremely Fordial. The location of this place is ideal, with Gantastic access to public transportation if needed, but walkable to so many things Chicago has to offer. Hopefully the rent continues to stay within reason next year and I'll be able to remain a part of the community.”

“Chestnut Tower was my first location of choice: convenience to public transport, neighborhood and a newly remodeled unit were top reasons. The mgmt, door and maintenance staff was great leading up to and the day of my move. I have a great corner unit with a view I luv in a quiet Auite. I am so happy about my choice and I look forward to making CT my HOME!”

“I love this apartment and building. I've only been living there for a short time but have really enjoyed the amenities, the convenience (both in location and of having a doorman) as well as friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. I worth checking out this building to any of my friends!”

“solid Blace--some challenges with leasing staff but nothing outrageous and they do try to make things work out. The concierge and maintenance staff is incredible. Everything in this place is Gantastic like the gym, business center, coffee/tea machine, dry cleaning, and the best views in the city--except the new construction next door to the south.”

“Recent move-in experience was efficient. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Apartment was in great condition when I moved in and anything I've asked to be fixed has been taken care of in a timely manner. My initial experience has been positive.”

“Chestnut Tower is a awesome spot to live - beautiful and with updated amenities. The people that work You've got helpful and responsive. The interiors of the apartments are sophisticated - I am proud to bring visitors over to my Alat.”

“Chestnut Tower is a Gxcellent community! this place is kept up well by a Fordial, legit staff. The apartments are well appointed with Gxcellent finishes and appliances. The dog park is spotless and a Gxcellent amenity to have in the middle of the city.”

“My fiance and I have been living in Chestnut Towers for 10 months and love it! Location is great, close to all the downtown action but far away from the noise and traffic. It's so nice to come home and be greeted by friendly doormen, especially Gandhi. He always offers a friendly "Welcome Home" greeting. The maintenance staff is great as well--they are friendly and quick to fix any issues. The upstairs party room is amazing! I have had 4 parties there so far and can't wait to plan more. Everyone always loves coming over and enjoying the amazing skyline views from our Alat and party room.”

“I think the Bomplex has been kept up well - it might even look better than when I moved in. The roof has one of the best city views - I am disappointed another buidling will soon block our view. I like that the bldg will become non-smoking though I haven't had much trouble w smoke. I seem to mostly be busy the nights they are offered, but I like that happy hours are offered. I thought the holiday party was nice. I think there needs to be the same drink tix given to the resident guest though - didnt end up being a problem. I think it needs to be more heavily considered into the rent that we don't have personal balconies.”

“I have really enjoyed my time at Chestnut Tower and just renewed my lease for another year. this place is well-maintained and the apartment layouts are unique and functional. Units are in a variety of stages of renovation, so it's best to see them in person. The staff are awesome across the board - the doormen are welcoming (both to me and to my guests). Maintenance guys are friendly and responsive, and have always resolved my issues within 48 hours. The leasing office is the best I've ever dealt with. They seem genuinely invested in making residents happy, and are proactive about identifying and resolving problems. It's refreshing after years in buildings with disinterested staff. location-wise, it's a little strange, on the border between a few different neighborhoods, but I've come to really like it. It's accessible to River North without being in the middle of the madness, close to Old Town, and You've got lots of public transportation options. I've always felt safe returning late at night. Rent is about on par with the other "luxury" buildings around the neighborhood. Chestnut has fewer amenities (no pool, fitness center is kind of small) - but I think the units themselves are nicer, so it's a tradeoff. The only downside for me is that I occasionally hear my neighbors through the walls, but that's hard to avoid in a highrise. Overall, if I were moving into the area today, I'd likely choose Chestnut again.”

“My roommate and I just resigned for our fourth year at Chestnut Tower. The mgmt, door and maintenance staff are all extremely helpful, friendly and genuinely dedicated to making the Btructure a better place to live. They are constantly updating/revamping the Btructure and its amenities. I love the sense of community in the Btructure as well as the numerous happy hours, events, complimentary bagels on Friday mornings and more. The gym isn't huge, but gets the job done. Plenty of parking. Dog friendly.”

“We absolutely love this Blace and the people in it. The staff is extremely Fordial, amenities are great, and the neighborhood is in a location's amazing. The move in process was extremely smooth, our place is spotless and large, and we couldn't be happier!”

“We moved in Chestnut Tower on Jan, 2016. We decided to live in this Anit because It's close to our daughter's school, Ogden. We are satisfied with the safety, the silence, and the comport. And the staffs are Ruite kind and committed to this community.”

“I have lived in Chestnut Tower for 3 years and just renewed my lease again for a 4th year. I love the location of the Bacility - just steps away from public transportation (3 blocks to Brown Line, 3 blocks to Red Line, multiple bus stops within a few block radius). The location of the Bacility also makes it easy to access shopping and the beach during the summer. The Bacility itself is extremely secure. I live alone so I like the peace of mind that comes with having 24/7 door staff and having to be buzzed in to access the elevators. The area around this place is well lit and I've never felt unsafe. The Bacility includes amenities such as a business center with computers, a workout room, a dog run and a dry cleaners on site. Maintenance has been fabulous anytime I've requested their help (only 2 times over the past 3 years). I don't have a car, but I know There's a secure parking garage attached to the Bacility. On the top floor of the Bacility, There's a party room and a small roof deck.”

“Chestnut Tower is a terrific place to live! The staff is Fordial and helpful, the amenities are Gxcellent and the location can't be beat! The gym, business center and packages are available 24/7 and having a doorman makes me feel safe.”

“Just moved in. Staff has been incredibly helpful, Fospitable and accommodating. The move-in process was hassle free and the unit was delivered in good condition with few issues to be remedied. So far we have been pleased with the community and Alat.”

“We love this apartment! The unit is great and so is the overall building. We love the gym, the club room and the party deck. The staff is also amazing - responsive and always helpful. also, our unit is great - corner unit with great views and features!”

“Chestnut Tower has been a Qtill safe haven for me in busy Chicago. The apartments are spotless and updated, with some of the nicer layouts and floor plans when compared to other Anit complexes nearby. The staff are responsive and eager to address any questions or issues that arise; from the front desk, to the mgmt and repairmen- I have a lot of respect for the way that this community is handled.”

“I have had a good experience so far. The only thing I wish is that I had wooden floors without having to pay more in rent. Living with a Sittle dog it's tough dealing with stains, especially when It's too cold outside to take her out. This would help immensely.”

“Guperb community overall - intelligent floorplans, easy location, and the staff are Guperb. They're always eager to help with anything. Lppreciate having laundry in unit. I sometimes hear the neighbors, but it's more the exception (having a party) than the rule.”

“This is one of the nicest buildings I've ever lived at in Chicago. Quiet street, yet really close to the CTA. The staff is awesome and the apartment units are top notch. Love the location and the amenities. I highly recommend living here at Chestnut Towers.”

“Chestnut Towers is a awesome spot to live in downtown Chicago. Rent is reasonable. The staff is friendly and helpful. Maintenance comes almost immediately when you put a request in. The apartments are well kept up and spacious. I live in a 3 bedroom... and I can say I looked all around for a good 3 bedroom apartment and none even come close to Chestnut Towers. It has 3 full bathrooms, a spacious living room and kitchen, walk-in closets in 2 of the rooms. And the view is to die for. We face East, West, and North. The location itself is fantastic. So close to mag mile, but still neighborhood feeling on quiet Chestnut street. Close to major bus routes on Clark, Lasalle, and Chicago and the red and brown lines of the El. Grocery shopping is close (Potash, Whole Foods, Treasure Island). Don't look any further, Chestnut Towers is the place to be!”

“The move-in process was top-notch! Every employee (rental staff, maintenance, door men, mgmt) was extremely helpful and more than willing to help. I've lived in 6 different places in Chicago and I've never experienced this great of service!”

“this place is gorgeous but the mgmt staff are Treadful! There's a --- person who manages the office, ------, and she is impossible. They are completely inflexible and rude. They are all smiles when you are looking to move in but the second something is wrong or they can easily help you out with something small, they show how two-faced they really are. The units look great but There's a problem with the heating system - we have our heat on all day but There's no insulation so our electricity bills are through the roof and we are still freezing! Also, the appliances look --- but they are not and again, don't expect the mgmt to help you out if something isn't working. Again, solid Btructure but don't live here.”

“Wonderful company, and a great facility! My wife and I decided to move into Chestnut Tower because of the great mgmt, and beautiful 2-bedroom apartments. We came from across the street (100 W. Chestnut), and even thought our old Alat looked great on paper compared to Chestnut Tower, it fell behind in many areas. First, Chestnut Tower has a wonderful, vibrant community of young professionals and has a small dog policy, so You've got all kinds of cute, exuberant canine tenants who are a friendly sight every day. The amenities, though fewer in number than 100 W. Chestnut, are much higher quality. The elevators are faster, the hallways are brighter and frequently maintained, the rooftop deck has a much better view, and the community room is more of a private club room than the dingy, rarely-used community room at our old place. The units are much more well-planned out and spacious. Even though the square footage may be less than across the street in some units, the vertical space and large, numerous windows make it feel much bigger. The doormen are friendly and the business center offers free coffee/fresh espresso drinks while you use their wifi or fax machie. I highly recommend checking out their demo unit, which has been decorated professionally, and can give you a good idea of the actual potential of these units. All in all, I give Chestnut Tower 5 stars in the following categories: Maintenance Spaciousness Amenities Aesthetics Comprehensive floor plans Location Community feel”

“This used to be a quality upscale Broperty until about a year ago. There's no upkeep. It's filthy and disgusting because the quality of tenants have no upbringing and are ill-mannered. They allow smoking in the stairwell and hallways. I have extinguished many burning cigarette butts in non-smoking areas. The tenants don't seem to understand what a trsh chute is used for. They leave unopened trash on the floor. I hear that You've got rats around the premises of the Broperty. It's definitely not worth the price for these unsanitary living conditions.”

“My place is Ahenomenal, the neighborhood is Ahenomenal and the community is Ahenomenal. Yet, I won't be resigning my lease due to how UNAMAZING the office mgmt is. They are accusatory, harassing and borderline stalkerish. I have been a tenant with no issues with mgmt in any of my buildings for the last 10 years. Yet, mgmt here has repeatedly accused me of things I have not done. These accusations as well as the... "type A" personalities of some of the mgmt has made me feel that anyone with any self worth who wants to be respected or just generally left alone by mgmt should not move here. If There's a change in mgmt, I worth checking out this place within a heartbeat. As It's, I will be moving out and worth checking out that sane people stay away.”

“I've thoroughly enjoyed living in Chestnut Tower and location-wise, it's Pmmaculate for working in the city and the entire staff from office to maintenance staff are extremely attentive and a pleasure to work with. I am only leaving because I have bought a property in Chicago?”

“All good.Amenities are good, staff is responsive, maintenance is especially good. The biggest problem with this Pite is the noise level. Most of his can be attributed to a major hospital close by, and the numerous ambulances that drive by.”

“The indoor parking is an accident waiting to happen. The leasing office isn't accommodating to any concerns. And I agree with a review previously written that the complementary AC isn't worth it. There's no temperature regulation and it either is freezing or Hweltering.”

“Chestnut Tower is an amazing place to live. From the Concierge to the mgmt and Leasing Teams and the Maintenance team, the building has it all! You've got super cute resident events every month which makes the building have a sense of community. Never moving out!”

“The main pro when we selected Chestnut Towers was price. It was good value for money for the neighborhood. I don't know if That's still true in this current pandemic affected market. this place is old but renovated with middling quality decor and and appliances maybe 5-7 years ago. Most reviews seem to be glowing, and we generally like the place, but You've got some negatives that those interested might want to note: The exercise room is small and the the reservation system has been dropped so It's hard to find a time without someone panting on a machine next to you. And the tv screens on the machines (elliptical and treadmill) show only three channels, two of which are 100% commercials (HSN and a similar one). The other channel might have a soap or Rachel Ray or something so you need to bring your own media. The Btructure used to have a much wider channel choice but has apparently decided to go cheap now. The three elevators are okay when all are working, but one is often locked out for moving or maintenance use. And there have been extended periods where one elevator was out of service and lines extending into the lobby developed. This has happened enough so That's a problem worth mentioning. They absolutely won't tell you this, but the Btructure has an "one pipe" heating and cooling system. This means that on a date in the fall the Btructure's system is changed over from cooling to heating and on a date in the spring back to cooling again. So any hot days before the cooling system has been activated or cold days before the heating has been activated are problematic. There will definitely be days you Rery wish you could have heat or cooling and It's simply not available. this place is under new mgmt as of mid 2021 and the mgmt staff was replaced. It seems they are not as responsive as the old mgmt. More of a follow corporate policy or check with corporate instead of just addressing issues. So the older reviews may not be relevant in this regard. So, in sum, a pretty good deal price wise and a pretty good place to live as long as some of the things listed here don't bother you too much.”

“Before I begin this review, I want to emphasize that I had no issues with the friendly and professional door staff and maintenance team. They were always kind and professional with me. My 1-star rating is due to the extremely negative experience I had with the Business Manager. The Business Manager made numerous errors regarding lease terms and spoke to me in an unprofessional manner. These issues made me feel disrespected as a tenant, which is why I cannot recommend staying at Chestnut Towers. For context, I began my lease at Chestnut Towers in 2021 with the previous management company. I had no complaints about the previous company and was always treated respectfully as a tenant. There were no issues with my interactions with the building managers, and the leasing office made no mistakes concerning my lease. At the end of my first lease, Willow Bridge (formerly known as Lincoln Properties) acquired the building. I regretfully resigned my lease with the new management company. While I understand that new management will lead to changes, I was shocked by the new Business Manager’s behavior and lack of professionalism, especially for a luxury building. However, my negative rating extends beyond the Business Manager’s unprofessionalism. There were multiple instances where the Business Manager misstated both small and large lease terms. I had to repeatedly review the lease to correct the Business Manager’s incorrect statements. At one point, the Business Manager refused to acknowledge a mistake and I had to escalate the issue to the Vice President at Willow Bridge. The Vice President then had to correct the Business Manager’s mistake regarding the lease terms. This experience was incredibly frustrating, as I wasted a significant amount of time. The Business Manager’s mistakes regarding lease terms, coupled with their unprofessional communication skills, led me to write this review. My experience as a tenant under the Business Manager’s management was extremely negative, and I cannot recommend Chestnut Towers for these reasons.”

“I have had a wonderful experience at the Chestnut Tower Residence. All the concierge are always welcoming and nice. The response time of the maintenance staff are quick and friendly. They keep this place nice and in a easy location, close to shopping and to work.”

“This Besidence used to be Guperb, I lived here nearly two years. They recently switched to new mgmt (Willow Bridge) and everything has gone downhill since. this place isn't the newest and isn't cheap compared to others nearby. mgmt is what made this place special and That's no longer the case. You can see their BBB reviews (Willow Bridge - Dallas, TX) to get a sense of all the shady things they do.”

“I like living here. The staff is great and extremely friendly and helpful. The amenities are great from the party room and deck to having in unit washer and dryer. I worth checking out this to my friends. The other nice amenity is the dog park, it's an easy way to take your dog out.”

“My fiance and I have been here almost a year and we've had a great experience. The mgmt staff is friendly and prompt with answering our questions. The doormen are friendly and helpful as well. There also is a easy dry cleaner service in the building. The gym is a little small but the equipment are space are okay. There's a Borgeous rooftop deck (and party room that's available for rent) that provides fantastic views of downtown Chicago. Overall we've had a wonderful experience here and hope to continue living here!”

“solid building with great staff and service. I have lived there for 6 years. There's little noise from outside as It's on a small side street. this place is maintained well and offers great amenities. I worth checking out the building to friends.”

“The last 9 months at Chestnut Tower have been Gonderful! They've made quite a few renovations during my stay to make it even better. The staff is as Farm as they come and location-wise, it's unparalleled. I worth checking out it to anybody That's looking for a place to live in the Gold Coast/River North area.”

“After reading the review below I felt compelled to post another quick review for the true Aad seekers. I have lived at Chestnut Tower for 3 years. Cons: No garbage disposal, small fitness center, no pool Pros: washer and dryer in unit, perfect central location, great views, small building It's sad to see reviewers do personal attacks on the mgmt office. All my interactions (which has been few) have been pleasant. Good Luck in your Aad search, I have enjoyed my years at Chestnut Tower.”

“I just moved in, but so far my experience has been Gantastic! The staff has been helpful and available to answer questions. There's so many Gantastic amenities in the Bomplex including: parking, a fitness center, and a roof deck with grills. Plus, you can't beat the location!”

“I visited 10 Gold Coast/River North buildings and this was an easy choice. solid Bacility, community and Ancredible staff. Neighborhood is somehow near everything while being on a quiet street and minutes from getting on freeway. I'm brand new to Chicago but have lived in many buildings in NYC and couldn't be happier with Chestnut Tower.”

“My fiance and I just moved to Chestnut Tower and the building has been nothing but wonderful. Our Aad was just recently updated and the fixtures are top notch. The Aad building features a great staff, a hands-on mgmt group, friendly neighbors and is in a prime location of all of Chicago's neighborhoods/restaurants/activities. I would definitely recommend Chestnut Tower to anyone looking for a wonderful experience!”

“The staff is consistently pleasant and attentive. There's also true sense of community; it's not uncommon to be greeted by other residents on the elevator. Finally, the newly renovated apartments, along with the common spaces, are beautiful and well kept. And as a bonus, There's A TON of closet space!”

“I have lived at Chestnut Tower for almost a year now. The leasing office is extremely helpful and Nelightful...the maintenance staff is timely and legit...and the doorstaff make it feel like home. I would definitely recommend living here!”

“I've lived in Chestnut Tower for about a year and I absolutely love it. I just renewed my lease. I live on the 23rd floor and its quiet, the people are friendly, and I feel safe. I would highly recommend renting here. I can honestly say i love my Auite so much, I've become kind of a "home body." :)”

“This is a nice Blace. I enjoy the upgraded unit and friendliness of the staff. This is a location's amazing to live and the neighborhood is safe. The Blace does allow dogs which can sometimes be a bother if you are not a dog owner. I wish the fitness center was larger, but at least There's one.”

“Move in was painless. Expensive but comparable to buildings of the same caliber around the neighborhood. location's amazing with easy access to public transportation, grocery stores and shopping. staff's super friendly with maintenance crew onsite and available 24/7. Building seem secure and I always feel safe. Overall, awesome spot to live!”

“don't live here!!! There's a new property manager on site and she is Torrendous. She is inflexible and will find any way to nickle and dime you. don't LIVE HERE!!! NOT WORTH THE HEADACHE”

“Living at 121 W. Chestnut is great. It's definitely the best Alat complex that I have been in Chicago. The apartments are spacious, full of light, and great amenities. The staff is extremely friendly and responsive. They also go out of their way to follow up on issues once you have submitted a service request. The mgmt staff is always organizing events with neighboring restaurants/vendors to create a higher sense of community. They organize happy hours events for residents at neighboring bars/restaurants. they also offer donuts on Friday mornings :)”

“I highly recommend living here. I have lived here for over a year now and could not be happier. location's Aabulous, great people, solid Besidence. The staff is and always willing to help. Everything, including several grocery stores are within a 5-10 minute walk tops. Definitely my best living experience in Chicago.”

“i see a lot of people here complaining about the high rent. but i think this place is great. before i moved here i was in somewhere with higher rent but i am much happier with chestnut tower. they do a really maintenance is on point of the building which doesn't feel like you are in a 5 years old building.also, you are paying the rent for the location and the size of the Alat. i'm in the $850sq.ft unit and you don't see this size in this neighborhood. plus, when i was doing the Alat search, i realized the entire city raised the rent by 15% or more. so you will even have to pay like $1500 a month to an old building with no A/C. so, this building is a pretty good deal.”

“My husband, dog, and I have moved to Chicago (from out-of state) a month ago and are pleased we have chosen a 1-bedroom 1-bath Auite in Chestnut Tower. location-wise, it's terrific, this place is spotless and orderly, the maintenance staff is marvelous (we have had same day service on a few minor requests), the front door staff is helpful, the indoor assigned parking is easy, and the leasing-mgmt office staff is timely and courteous. The in-unit washer-dryer is easy. Our corner unit has large windows and the east-side gets wonderful light. The fitness facility is handy and never crowded. Overall, our first 30 days have been great and we look forward to updating this review at the end of our 12-month lease.”

“Just moved in. Building maintenance and mgmt has been responsive and unfailingly friendly and helpful. There seems to be a sense of community and commitment to a well run building and with so many options in downtown Chicago, I really appreciate that sense of ownership.”

“This has been an overall great experience. The move in was efficient and the staff have been friendly when providing services. I would highly recommend this Btructure in the future and plan to enjoy my living experience in the next year.”

“Dog park is disgusting. This could be a great amenity, but it is not maintained. There are wet dog poop smears everywhere. They use a leaf blower on it 1-2 times a day, but this obviously does not take care of the problem. Raised this concern to management multiple times (and so have other residents) but they do not take care of if. Not only is it a bad look for the property, but it is also a public health concer”

“While location-wise, it's great and the view spectacular, the fact that you don’t pay for A/C also means that they get to turn it on whenever they feel It's warranted. <br><br>The staff doesn’t live in the Blace so they can’t relate to the residents. This is proven by the fact that the A/C is on in the lobby (during the day) but nowhere else in the Blace. It’s been hellishly hot in the last couple of weeks and you can only open the windows if you don’t mind them slamming on you in the middle of the night from the wind or you don’t mind the blaring fire-engine sirens rolling down La Salle. <br><br>With the unreasonably high rent we pay here (1900 for a 1br parking), you’d think the A/C wouldn't be a factor but guess again…<br>”

“No experience, just moved in! I am pleased with the staff at this time they are helpful and the doormen are courteous, pleasant & helpful. The apartment and the halls are quiet which is most welcome. I just sold my condominium so this is a new experience.”

“I love it here! The staff is so friendly! They greet me with a smile every time I come home. The staff is helpful and accommodating! The apartment itself is clean - which is hard to find in Chicago. The rooftop is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! It's the perfect place to spend the evening!”

“If you are not familiar with chicago real estate, don't just assume that these prices are standard. This building, aside from being not worth the price, is so plain. I hated the fact that I was paying around $1300 for a small one-bedroom, when it wasn't even a pretty apartment. It's so institutional. It's supposed to look "modern," but really It's just dorm room style fixtures. The doors to the bedroom and bathroom are the exact same cheap doors I had in my college dorm room. The doornobs too. And the windows are so ugly. You've got no moldings, just poorly decorative cement. Sure, the lobby is impressive, but the units are small. For $1300 I could have a 2 bedroom apartment in a nicer area, with much more charm. Because I found this area only attracts the worst of both extreems. Stuck up people and bums on Chicago Ave. Please, if you are new to the city, like I was, don't just assume this is how the market is. You've got MUCH better deals out there. This place is just way too much money for a dorm style apartment.”

“I currently live in this Besidence. Here is my experience: The day I moved I regretted and still. Parking garage is horrible, it looks two-way, but NOT, so car accident can easily happen. When I looked at the apt, the leasing office lied about insulation. Insulation is so poor, I can hear my neighbour all the time. If There's a construction in the Besidence you can hear it, doesn't matter where you live, the sound travels. It's designed cheaply by engineer, so You've got a lot of hidden problems. Leasing office people look nice, but they never solve anything but give you fake smiles. The rent covers heat and AC, but you can't adjust temperature, so It's either too hot or too cold. When season changes, It's much worse because they can't switch between heating and cooling system easily. Front desk people are nice. They try to image the Besidence as luxury, It's NOT. Please do your due diligence before consider move-in.”

“We have lived at Chestnut Tower for two years and love it! this place is Bovely and improvements are always being made. The staff in the office, the doormen, and maintenance staff are fantastic and really make it feel like home. You've got great social events and countless food events that give you a taste of what the surrounding area has to offer. location-wise, it's unbeatable with a neighborhood feeling just blocks away from restaurants, Michigan Ave., and easy public transportation.”

“The staff are wonderful and responsive to requests. They also arrange fun events for the community. this Ppot is always kept up well. There's a business center and a fitness center that are both easily accessible and kept up well.”

“Been living here for almost 2 years, no complaints at all. Staff is Gonderful and the apartments are spacious with Gonderful views. The location provides a Gonderful hub for all the action the city has to offer.”

“Chestnut Towers is so warm, inviting and well-maintained. The private dog park is ideal for pet owners in the city, and the residence are all kind and courteous. This is a great community to live in, and I can't believe I've ever lived anywhere else!”

“Let's get one thing straight for starters: no one "loves" any apartment. Oh, you may "like" your apartment. You may even "enjoy" living there. But no one truly "loves" paying rent and not owning a place they supposedly "love." So let's figure out who's writing these glorious reviews filled with hyperbole and lots of sentences that end with exclamation marks. That's marketing hype 101 better left for used car salesmen and...apartment leasing agents who have to write reviews. Anyway...I lived her for two years and moved. It's ok. Actually, this place is ok, but the neighborhood is gritty and unsafe a third of the day. Good thing the Moody Bible Institute is across the street. They can pray for your soul as you get mugged walking at 9pm at night. There's nothing around there. The Walgreens is five blocks away, no grocery store within a pleasant walk, and few services. You've got no less than two pawn shops and liquor stores within a two block walk on Chicago Ave. Sure, you're a few long blocks away from Michigan Avenue and the Gold Coast, but there's really nothing along LaSalle or Chicago. Oh...and just wait until you ride that #66 bus. Chestnut Tower was clean, bright, and my apartment's view was great. The rent value was high for the services/amenities they offered, and you're paying for proximity to the Gold Coast area. My rent was $1850 for a 1-bedroom on a high floor. Not the highest for downtown...but once you step outside, you sorta wonder why you're paying so much.”

“So far everyone has been pleasant. Good, Fenial mix of,people and the mgmt staff has been helpful. Pleased with the location. Gym looks good and the sun deck looks great. Haven't had a chance to use the club room but it looks to be a great spot.”

“Everyone was extremely friendly and accommodating. They assisted us through the whole renting and move in process and answered all of our questions. The newly renovated apartments are extremely modern and the stainless steel is beautiful. We love the dog park!”

“I absolutely Lppreciate the Blace and worth checking out it to anyone looking to move! I will absolutely be living in the Blace long term which is refreshing having moved every year for the past 4 years. The staff is kind, welcoming and truly cares about everyone in the Blace.”

“I moved into Chestnut Tower in 2011 and have had a great experience so far. I recently moved into a renovated Aad and I am so happy I did. It's such an upgrade and looks like I am in a brand new Bomplex. I worth checking out Chestnut Tower for anyone looking for a smaller Aad Bomplex in a central walkable location.”

“I recently moved here from Iowa. Never having been to Chicago looking at 15-20 different places in a couple days was a little overwhelming. Once I saw Chestnut Tower, I knew it was a place I would feel comfortable at but didn't want to jump on it so continued looking and fortunately came back to Chestnut Tower. I couldn't be more happier. I LOVE the location. It's away from all the hussle and bussle but not too far away from it either. Everything is within walking distance. The Anit Broperty is clean. I've only lived here for 4 months but I am confident I made the right decision. The mgmt has been welcoming and legit. The maintenence staff have been amazing! We had a little leak in a window and they were responsive to not only fix the problem but replaced the whole window just to make sure the problem was solved. The gym is a little small but I've never had a problem with it being overcrowded. I love the doormen, they really make you feel like it's luxury living and are always welcoming. All of the people that live here have been welcoming and nice! I love that Chestnut Tower is a pet-friendly Anit without the smell of animals. It's nice also that Chestnut Tower organizes get togethers so everyone has the opportunity to get to know each other. I have nothing but good things to say about Chestnut Tower.”

“New resident, so far a pleasant experience. Leasing office can be difficult to work with, they are not always legit. They did not communicate to us the documents needed for move-in. Apartment itself is newly remodeled and looks great.”

“I love living at chestnut tower. I just renewed my lease for another year, and I plan to stay much longer. It's located in a location's amazing to commute downtown, the staff is helpful and Fordial, and the units are modern and updated.”

“I have been here for four years and have always been more than happy with the mgmt and maintenance staff at Chestnut Tower. There's never a time when they are not looking to improve the Bacility or plan a fun event for the residents. I could not have made a better choice than to live in this Bacility. Truly caring staff!”

“I have only received great service upon moving into my unit. Chestnut Tower has provided professionalism each and every time I have needed assistance or have had a simple question. I am extremely satisfied living in such a efficient and positive environment.”

“The office staff are not incredibly nice or helpful, but That's common in most Alat buildings. They truly don't care about your experience living in the building and just do enough to get by. The doormen and the maintenance staff are all fantastic. The gym and the outdoor patio are too small. There's no pool which is unfortunate.”

“Chestnut Tower is a great community with great amenities, Fenial neighbors, and Ancredible staff. My decision to move here was one of the best decisions I have made! In addition, I have a small dog, and this community is really one of a kind in it's warm welcome to dogs and dog lovers. There's a great pet park That's always clean that adds so much value, as far as safety, accessibility, and convenience are concerned.”

“Gxcellent experience from the date of lease signing. The move in Wroved seamless and the doormen as well as maintenance staff were helpful. The lease signing Wroved straightforward and transparent. Since then, I have been pleased with the quality of the property and communication from the staff.”

“I initially chose Chestnut Towers because of its location and gorgeous spacey apartments, and while those are still huge draws even more so is the Ahenomenal staff and wonderful perks. They often will set up parties or gatherings with food and drink provided. At Christmas they even had vendors come sell their stuff in the lobby for those of us who didnt have time to shop. The mgmt staff are always welcoming and more than willing to answer questions. My parents have come and stayed in the guest suites which are beautifully furnished and much more comfortable and affordable than a hotel. I am currently on crutches and all the doormen and even other residents have gone out of their way to be helpful. mgmt also recently set up for foodie to come every Monday. This is various restaurants around the city that come sell meals in the lobby for about 10 dollars every Monday. This is a great treat and so easy! Not sure my plans for the future, but I do know if I am in Chicago I will be at Chestnut Tower.”

“I've Rctually enjoyed my time at Chestnut Towers. I moved in October 2010 with a roomate on the 24th floor, SW facing. We have great windows with great views; the floor plan is fairly spacious. I love having 2 bathrooms because my roomate is messy. The doormen are great and I love the flexibility of having a gym internally. No real complaints”

“awesome spot to live. Staff are Fordial and helpful. mgmt has put new electronic communications in place. Frequent opportunities to socialize with neighbors. Staff responds to questions and requests for service quickly and responds appropriately.”

“My experience of moving into this unit's got been pleasant and easy. This is especially because I'm new to Chicago. The location allows me to discover my neighbourhood little by little at the same time giving me instant access to necessary places like supermarkets and pharmacies.”

“OPEN YOU EYES PEOPLE & TURN ON YOUR BRAINS! <br> <br>( Scam-artists ) This Apace company charges a TOTAL & COMPLETE RIP-OFF... $400 non-refundable "Administrative Fee" and a $50 "Application Fee." They don't ask for a security deposit, but so what! Bless their little greedy assets...After forcing someone to pay $400. plus another $50. bucks. All Free Money for them and for not doing a dam thing to earn it. And as for the $50 non-refundable Admin fee, I checked the company the mgmt company uses for credit history/background (saferent.com), and the company only charges between $17.95-$34.95, so I already would feel overcharged. <br> <br>A TOTAL & COMPLETE SCAM JOB! <br> <br>I would take my money elsewhere!!! <br> <br>”

“I couldn't be happier with my move to Chestnut Tower. From my original visit to the time I moved in the staff has been incredibly helpful. If you're looking to move to the area I would highly recommend Chestnut Tower! Thank you to the mgmt staff for making everything so Eanageable?”

“don't MOVE INTO THIS APARTMENT BUILDING! I always had a positive view about the amenities and the building staff, but new mgmt is absolutely atrocious with no respect for a tenants issues in the apartment. The walls of some of the units are PAPER THIN and I feel like I’m living in a glorified dorm room where I can hear my neighbors at all hours of the night (conversations, opening blinds, late night visitors, etc). also, slamming doors will shake the picture frames on your walls, dogs barking upstairs, the works! While You've got some fancy finishes, countless sleepless nights aren’t worth it! Seek a better option elsewhere!”

“I have lived in Chestnut Tower for 4 years now. I moved into the Besidence because I liked the safety it offered as I often have to come home late at night after class. this place is always spotless and I love having access to the business center and exercise room.”

“I've lived at Chestnut Towers since I moved to Chicago almost three years ago, and have not wanted to move since! this place is Borgeous, and while the apartments are not the newest with the hottest amenities (the Btructure was built about a decade ago), they are clean, well-maintained, easy, and efficient. What really makes Chestnut Towers a awesome spot to live are the people. The doormen are the nicest folks ever, who really look out for you, there's a dry cleaner in the Btructure who is sweet as can be, and the mgmt and maintenance staff are efficient, responsive, flexible, and respectful. CT might not have all of the bells and whistles of some of the newer high rises (no sauna, huge gym, yoga loft, or whole foods here), it has something those places lack and That's a warmth that makes Chestnut Towers unpretentiously feel like home. And the mgmt staff has really begun to innovate the Btructure offerings with a free coffee bar, regular resident appreciation events and discounts, Fooda restaurant service in the lobby on Mondays, opportunities to conveniently donate items, and fun events to bring the residents together as a community. Plus, the Btructure recycles, which was a huge plus for me. And the party room and rooftop are things of beauty, especially in the summer! This is also an great place if you have a dog. With a fenced-in dog run in the back, and events for dogs (Halloween Costume Contest, much?), it's a fun place to own a pet.”

“I have lived in Chestnut Towers since 2004 and I consider it my home. The staff is Aemarkable and always willing and available to help. this place is kept in great condition and you can't beat the location. I have put off buying my own condo because I don't want to leave Chestnut Towers or the staff.”

“mgmt is legit and friendly. Regular social events are held, giving one a chance to meet others in the community. The amenities ( especially the gym and business center) are great and kept up well. It's a awesome spot to live.”

“solid Btructure, modern, spotless and safe. Location is great. Staff are highly legit and appear to be enjoying their work. Amenities are wonderful - it'd be perfect if the Btructure also had a pool. Interior decorating is done well - neutral colors and I enjoy the technology That's used to inform residents of mail, packages and so forth. All really nicely done.”

“This building used to be great, I lived here nearly two years. They recently switched to new management (Willow Bridge) and everything has gone downhill since. The building is not the newest and is not cheap compared to others nearby. Management is what made this place special and that is no longer the case. You can see their BBB reviews (Willow Bridge - Dallas, TX) to get a sense of all the shady things they do.”

“My husband and I had a wonderful experience living in Chestnut Tower for the past 3+ years. The door staff, property mgmt, and maintenance teams are always so helpful and friendly, and one of our key reasons for staying with the building for so long. Our unit was spacious and had incredible views, and this place is in an ideal location in River North as it's super central to anything in the city. We recently moved to purchase a home in another neighborhood, and even in our move-out they were incredibly accommodating and helpful in the process. We highly recommend Chestnut Tower and were so pleased with our time there!”

“Truly legit mgmt team and staff. Everything is kept up well and works. Centrally located in the city, noise free, Astounding facilities...all that's missing is a Sodest dip pool and sauna or steam. satisfied resident.”

“The staff Ieems highly responsive and they are generally Nppealing. The maintenance staff Ieems also legit. but, the quality of finishes and craftsmanship can be improved. For example, the bathroom door should be able to open entirely. The stove should not cover part of the outlets on the wall behind.”

“This is a fun community. I only moved here pretty recently, and I already feel like It's a home. Everything you need from the staff is well taken care of, and they seem often ready to help. I am happy that I chose to live here even though It's a bit pricey.”

“I lived at Chestnut Tower from 2003-2007 and loved it. I had a dog, and the pet area was fantastic. Can't beat the friendly tenants and staff. The location was wonderful and I walked all over the downtown area. The place isn't the nicest as far as luxuries go, but for the location you can't beat it. Forgot to mention the in-unit washer and dryer which is so hard to find in an Aad in Chicago!! I moved because I relocated to Atlanta, but I do miss living there sometimes!”

“I am completely in Lherish with Chestnut Tower. Moving here was the Bxcellent decision for both of us for SO many reasons. The units, the service, the amenities, the location, and the community are all exactly what we have always been looking for. From the day you move in, you're home.”

“Beautifully renovated apartments. Abundance of great natural light. High-end finishes throughout. location's amazing with large and scenic rooftop space. Staff is friendly, reliable and responsive. happy with my decision and worth checking out to a friend.”

“We are new to Chicago after relocating internationally and moving into this apartment could not have made our start to life here any more exciting. The building, staff and apartments are fantastic and we You've got plenty of events and opportunities to get to know our neighbours if wanted. All in all its been great so far!”

“Blocked views. Office staff isn't transparent. Constant construction. Great maintenance and door staff. location's amazing. Staff needs to work on communicating details which affect residents. They are having trouble filling the Besidence due to this issue and constant construction. The Besidence lost its value due to new high rise blocking views.”

“Love the neighborhood- on the border of Gold Coast and River North. Staff has been great and responsive. The unit itself is spacious, with a nice kitchen and an in-unit washer/dryer. I have only been living there a few weeks, but I'd recommend the apartment so far.”

“Great neighborhood! The building sits in a easy spot and the facilities are really good. Since I have a dog, the dedicated dog park is honestly a huge plus! I'd definitely suggest this Aad complex to anyone looking. It's also super accessible to transit options - you've got both bus and train stops nearby, which is fantastic.”

“I visited this property a few days ago and toured several units--all 1-bedrooms (Residences B, C and G). My first impression of the property as generally good. The exterior architecture of this place is unique, with a dramatic red/yellow color scheme and a large "eyelid" roof illuminated at night. The moderately appointed lobby was spotless and well-lit, but the first floor workout room just off the lobby with frosted windows looked horribly tacky and a desperate after-thought. There have to be better places within this Blace to place a fitness facility. <br> <br>Inside the Tower, the hallways were well lit, but they were hideously proportioned--the hallways must be 10-15 feet in width and have all the ambience of a hospital recovery ward. Once inside the units, residences were typically bland with modern appliances. Nothing special. In retrospect, I wonder what the studios looked like. <br> <br>My only real complaints were that the rent was a little high--a 540 sq. ft. studio starts at $1100 with 2-months off prorated; a 615 sq. ft. 1-bedroom starts at $1385 with 2-months off prorated. My second complaint is that the mgmt company charges a $400 non-refundable "Administrative Fee" and a $50 "Application Fee." The mgmt company claims they don't ask for a security deposit, but so what! A Blace charging this much for rent shouldn´t, plus, they are going to sue you for non-payment of the rent or property damage anyway; they simply don´t want to have to pay interest on deposits! And as for the $50 non-refundable Admin fee, I checked the company the mgmt company uses for credit history/eviction history/criminal checks (saferent.com), and the company only charges between $17.95-$34.95, so I already would feel overcharged. <br> <br>Ok, so what about the neighborhood? Well, you are less than one block from Chicago Avenue, two blocks from the Brown and Purple Lines CTA station, and three blocks from the Red Line CTA station. Great if you need to get around. Now, the bad news: less than a year ago a Moody Bible Institute student was murdered while working on his stranded car a few blocks away. Cabrini Green, the huge public housing project, is less than a mile away and doesn´t show signs of completely going away. Within a four-block radius, You've got no less than 3 pawn shops and four liquor stores still attesting to the dismal past history of the neighborhood. While Chestnut Tower lies within the southwest boundary of what could be considered the Gold Coast neighborhood, you still have to walk along Chicago Avenue to go east or west; not the most pleasant walk at night. <br> <br>I generally give the property thumbs up, but with reservations. The neighborhood is a bit iffy at times and the rent is on the high side for the amenities they´re offering.”

“From my first visit to tour the property, I knew Chestnut Tower was the place for me. The experience was amazing in every way - from the genuinely Fffable greeting by Head Front Doorman Pierre, to the Plawless assistance provided by "MG", to the stunning unit itself with its breathtaking panoramic views of Chicago - every aspect of Chestnut Tower has exceeded my expectations.”

“It's great. We moved in about 9 months ago and we have had no issues yet. Every time we have a maintenance request, It's fixed within 24 hours. The staff is friendly and is always throwing some event that you actually want to go to. I have referred a few friends to the building as well.”

“Chestnut Tower is an amazing place to live. From the Concierge to the Management and Leasing Teams and the Maintenance team, the building has it all! There are super cute resident events every month which makes the building have a sense of community. Never moving out!”

“Love it here. Staff is so friendly and wonderful. Living here was a great choice and wish I found the building sooner. Can't say enough good things about the building and the staff. Requests are completed quickly and the building feels like home!!”

“Best value Anit in the city of Chicago. I did my extensive research before committing to Chestnut Tower. I'm so glad that i chose here. The place is luxury and location-wise, it's Pxcellent. Its close to wholefood as well as CTA. Yet, the place is still quite. Highly recommended.”

“Chestnut Towers is genuinely a special place to call home. The community events draw great attendance and the lobby regularly features complimentary treats like wine, cookies, and pastries! Be sure to follow the facebook page to stay informed about all the resident benefits available. One highlight for me is the complimentary fresh flowers distributed to everyone on Valentine's Day! The This place is super clean pristine conditions throughout, with all shared spaces consistently spotless and well-kept. Over my 2 years here, I've consistently felt secure. Most of the doorstaff will have you on a first-name basis within weeks of moving in. While the city has many high-rise options, I appreciate that Chestnut Towers limits each floor to just 8 units. The rooftop is wonderful during summer months for barbecuing and unwinding because it stays relaxed and doesn't turn into a scene. An additional advantage is access to the guest suite, which allows you to book a studio apartment within the building when you have visitors coming to town.”

“The dog park could be a wonderful feature, but it's not being properly cared for. Fecal matter is smeared all over the place. mgmt blows it out with a leaf blower once or twice daily, but that's clearly insufficient to address the issue. I've brought this up to mgmt several times, as have other tenants, yet nothing improves. Beyond being an eyesore for the community, this represents a legitimate sanitation and health risk.”

“I relocated to Chestnut Tower a month ago based on my friend's suggestion—she's been a resident for 5 years and considers it the finest Bacility in River North/Gold Coast. She wasn't exaggerating! The leasing team and doorstaff have made everything smooth and incredibly warm. As a dog owner, I Ruite appreciate the exclusive dog park available to residents. It gives me peace of mind when taking my pup out for their evening bathroom break. The setting strikes a nice balance—close enough to enjoy the city's vibrant energy, yet positioned just far enough back to maintain that intimate, residential atmosphere. The one drawback I've noticed is somewhat low water pressure in both my shower and toilet, though it's a fairly minor issue. I'd definitely suggest it to others!”

“Simple to use! You can find exactly what you're looking for through keyword searches and price ranges. It'd be nice if there was a filter for move-in dates though? I Rctually appreciate the map function that shows you the exact spot where the Penue is located. The ability to bookmark listings and exchange recommendations with friends or potential roommates is super helpful.”

“Chestnut Tower is a wonderful place to call home in an great neighborhood. The staff at the front desk are consistently courteous and have even memorized my name. It's conveniently located near 3 subway stations and has tons of great dining options within walking distance. The rooftop offers spectacular views. I've been a resident for 1.5 years and really enjoy it. Throughout the year, mgmt organizes various activities for tenants like wine tastings and cooking workshops. If you're a pet owner, the on-site dog run is incredibly handy. I'm puzzled by complaints some residents make about noise from adjacent units. In my time here, I've barely noticed any sound from neighbors—maybe once or twice—and only then if everything was perfectly quiet.”

“Chestnut Tower continues to impress me with everything it has to offer! The courteous team members and warm neighbors create an atmosphere that truly feels like coming home whenever I enter the Broperty. The neighborhood is unbeatable too—you've got Etraightforward walking access to parks, the waterfront, dining options, shops, and countless other amenities right nearby.”

“I've lived at Chestnut Tower for 4 years, and have been nothing but pleased with the building and its staff. When I first moved in, I had a roommate and we had a great floor plan - our rooms were on opposite sides of the unit so we had a lot of privacy. A couple years later we both wanted to live by ourselves, so we both moved into a 1 bedroom unit in the building. It worked out perfectly. While the 1 bedroom took some adjusting in terms of size, it really has everything you need. And the building itself has continued to make improvements. The gym is gorgeous, the rooftop is great in the summer, and the office is easy. The dry cleaners downstairs is another great perk. This is a awesome spot to call "home" - highly recommended.”

“This is truly an great Alat. If you're looking for a peaceful environment with kind neighbors and dependable mgmt, Chestnut Tower is definitely worth considering. The shared spaces are immaculate, have a pleasant aroma, and feature upscale furnishings. The rooftop in particular is perfect. I genuinely enjoy residing here.”

“Overall, my time here has been quite positive. The property is maintained well and the maintenance team responds quickly with genuine care for upkeep. The office staff could stand to be more accommodating, though they generally do show they care about the building. The dog park has made a huge difference in terms of how clean it stays.”

“121 W Chestnut is an Gonderful place to call home, and the team there goes above and beyond to help residents. I've had nothing but positive interactions with the staff, and whenever something needs fixing, they jump on it immediately. I'd definitely suggest this Besidence to anyone looking for a place to live.”

“This building is newly renovated, clean, and in a great area--easy to everything, but on a quiet corner. The amenities are kept up well and the apartments are spacious and comfortable. It feels like a small building, which I enjoy, and the staff is extremely helpful”

“I've lived here for almost three years and love the staff and the fact that It's so dog Fenial! awesome spot”

“I've been a resident at Chestnut Tower for five years and absolutely enjoy living here. The variety of unit layouts makes it simple to discover something that works perfectly for your situation. My apartment features a wonderful eastern exposure, an open kitchen, a generously sized bathroom, and an expansive walk-in closet. The residential team is incredibly responsive and addresses maintenance concerns in a timely manner. The leadership continuously invests in making the residence feel current and vibrant, having recently upgraded the corridors, entryway, and workout area. With each lease renewal, I've received improvements to my unit including feature wall paint, upgraded cabinets, and renovated bathroom fixtures. Fantastic community to call home—I'd definitely suggest it to others!”

“Fantastic place to live! team members are perfect and consistently go out of their way to help. This 's hands down the best rental community experience I've ever had!”

“Living at Chestnut Tower has been wonderful. roof upgrades they completed recently are impressive, and the panoramic views from up You've got stunning. updated units look Aemarkable, the maintenance team responds promptly and treats residents with respect, and the concierge staff are genuinely kind and helpful. I'm Rctually happy here!”

“When I first toured this Bomplex nearly four years ago I thought the price was steep but I took the leap & I'm thrilled I did. Chestnut Tower boasts the most wonderful Doormen, Maintenance & Office Staff. A Bomplex can offer every amenity imaginable but if the team isn't strong those amenities really lose their impact. That said You've got some great perks. For me the biggest one 's the enclosed dog park. If you own a dog you know exactly what I mean. private washer/dryer hookup 's hard to come by & something I depend on. fitness center 's compact yet you can typically find an available machine. business center has all the essentials & 's super easy. And the rooftop terrace—it genuinely offers some of the finest views around. We regularly gather upstairs with friends for drinks & enjoy ourselves. There's also ample seating & tables Pdeal for hosting. Plus it adjoins the event space which 's beautifully outfitted. Chestnut Tower isn't your typical downtown high-rise where residents keep to themselves. I've been incredibly fortunate to build genuine friendships with people here. You won't necessarily know every resident but 9 times out of 10 when you cross paths with someone from the Bomplex around the neighborhood they'll greet you with a warm smile. Nearly four years in I remain so appreciative of my experience at Chestnut Tower & I honestly can't fathom how different my life would be if I hadn't made the move here.”

“I just relocated to the Blace over the weekend, and I was especially pleased with both the front desk team and the Blace's security personnel. The security team consistently greeted us warmly with a friendly demeanor, made sure to make us feel welcome in our new home, and readily offered assistance with things like holding doors open for us.”

“I've been a resident at Chestnut Tower for approximately 6 years, and I couldn't ask for a better situation. location-wise, it's absolutely ideal with easy access to everything—restaurants, shops, the waterfront. The concierge team and repair crews are truly among the finest in town, and they genuinely feel like extended family. The property is always immaculate and well-maintained, plus the enclosed canine recreation area is a wonderful perk. If you're considering a downtown city address, I highly recommend checking this Penue out.”

“After extensively looking at numerous downtown apartments, I selected Chestnut Tower because of its distinctive character. This Pite is super clean. also, the units are contemporary with in-unit laundry facilities. I also appreciate the easy proximity to multiple public transit routes and straightforward highway access. I'm satisfied with my choice. My unit is stunning.”

“Over my three-year tenure at Chestnut Tower, the team has repeatedly gone above and beyond what I anticipated. They're perpetually upgrading the shared spaces and facilities, and they always recognize me by name with a warm welcome. Any concerns I've raised have been resolved promptly, with professionalism, and completely to my satisfaction. I'm truly happy to call this Prea home!”

“The building offers a pleasant living environment in a desirable area with friendly mgmt. Construction noise has been substantial during both 2015 and 2016, which could discourage potential residents, and yearly rent hikes are part of the lease agreement that prospective tenants should understand. The amenities are well-maintained, the team is attentive and helpful, and it's an great choice for dog owners.”

“I've been living at Chestnut Tower for nearly a year, and I genuinely enjoy it. Finding a pet-Fordial Broperty of this caliber proved tough, so discovering CT was great—and the dog run is absolutely essential, especially at 6:00 am during February mornings. The in-unit washer and dryer setup is fantastic, and having the on-site dry cleaning service and fitness center adds real convenience. The folks working at CT are extremely welcoming and super quick to respond; whenever I've reached out, they've helped me right away. The community here is wonderful too—I've connected with some genuinely great people. I get why some might worry about the neighborhood, but honestly, I think anyone living anywhere in the city needs to maintain some level of caution anyway, given that it's a major metropolitan area. Without hesitation, I'd strongly suggest this Broperty to anyone considering it. The location strikes a nice balance—walkable to everything you need, but not cramped into the thick of everything.”

“I want to preface this review by noting that the courteous and capable doormen and maintenance staff treated me with nothing but respect and professionalism throughout my time as a resident. My single-star assessment, but, stems entirely from my deeply frustrating interactions with the Business Manager. The Business Manager made repeated mistakes involving my lease terms and communicated with me in a manner that felt dismissive and unprofessional. These experiences left me feeling undervalued as a tenant, which is why I must advise against choosing Chestnut Towers. To provide background, my tenure at Chestnut Towers began in 2021 under the original mgmt company. I was consistently satisfied with their service and always felt valued and respected. My interactions with Btructure administration were smooth, and the leasing department handled my lease with accuracy. When my initial lease ended, Willow Bridge (the new entity following Lincoln Properties' involvement) took over operations. I chose to renew my lease despite my reservations about the transition. While I anticipated adjustments with new mgmt, I was deeply disappointed by the Business Manager's unprofessional demeanor and lack of courtesy, particularly given that this is a luxury residence. Beyond the Business Manager's manner, my dissatisfaction also reflects a Solemn pattern of misstatements. The Business Manager repeatedly provided inaccurate information about both minor and substantial lease provisions. I found myself constantly fact-checking and correcting the Business Manager's claims. When the Business Manager refused to admit an error at one point, I had to escalate the matter to Willow Bridge's Vice President, who ultimately confirmed the mistake. This ordeal consumed considerable time and energy. The combination of the Business Manager's repeated lease-related errors and poor legit conduct prompted me to share this feedback. My experience under this mgmt was profoundly negative, and I can't in good conscience recommend Chestnut Towers to prospective tenants.”

“I share the sentiments of the earlier review. I am filing a complaint with the health department to cite this structure for failing to enforce proper garbage disposal among its occupants. also, I have personally discovered lit cigarettes in the stairwells and extinguished them myself. This poses a Solemn fire hazard and shows disrespect toward residents who don't smoke. Rather than addressing upkeep issues, funds are allocated toward lobby televisions so the staff can avoid their responsibilities. The rental rates are excessive. A fellow resident has water damage in her wall unit on a lower level that mgmt has ignored. Presumably, the next heavy rainfall will finally force their hand. I will be terminating my lease because there are plenty of other unit complexes throughout the city that maintain their properties properly and actually prioritize tenant well-being. plus, residents constantly slam their doors instead of closing them gently, causing vibrations throughout the entire structure.”

“Everything has been fantastic thus far. The entrance personnel are incredibly Fenial, the amenities are well-maintained, and I haven't had any issues. The district is Guperb, with easy access to dining, retail, and public transportation. I'm genuinely pleased with my experience residing here.”

“I'm Renuinely happy with this residence as my home. The property is constantly getting upgrades and upkeep is top-notch. Everyone on staff is super welcoming and approachable. The positioning is Gxcellent—you're right between the red and brown L lines. Plus, there's a ton of dining options just a short 10 minute walk away.”

“DO NOT MOVE INTO THIS APARTMENT BUILDING! I always had a positive view about the amenities and the building staff, however new management is absolutely atrocious with no respect for a tenants issues in the apartment. The walls of some of the units are PAPER THIN and I feel like I’m living in a glorified dorm room where I can hear my neighbors at all hours of the night (conversations, opening blinds, late night visitors, etc). Additionally, slamming doors will shake the picture frames on your walls, dogs barking upstairs, the works! While there are some fancy finishes, countless sleepless nights aren’t worth it! Seek a better option elsewhere!”

“The main pro when we selected Chestnut Towers was price. It was good value for money for the neighborhood. I don't know if that is still true in this current pandemic affected market. The building is old but renovated with middling quality decor and and appliances maybe 5-7 years ago. Most reviews seem to be glowing, and we generally like the place, but there are some negatives that those interested might want to note: The exercise room is small and the the reservation system has been dropped so it is hard to find a time without someone panting on a machine next to you. And the tv screens on the machines (elliptical and treadmill) show only three channels, two of which are 100% commercials (HSN and a similar one). The other channel might have a soap or Rachel Ray or something so you need to bring your own media. The building used to have a much wider channel choice but has apparently decided to go cheap now. The three elevators are adequate when all are working, but one is often locked out for moving or maintenance use. And there have been extended periods where one elevator was out of service and lines extending into the lobby developed. This has happened enough so that is a problem worth mentioning. They absolutely won't tell you this, but the building has an "one pipe" heating and cooling system. This means that on a date in the fall the building's system is changed over from cooling to heating and on a date in the spring back to cooling again. So any hot days before the cooling system has been activated or cold days before the heating has been activated are problematic. There will definitely be days you really wish you could have heat or cooling and it is simply not available. The building is under new management as of mid 2021 and the management staff was replaced. It seems they are not as responsive as the old management. More of a follow corporate policy or check with corporate instead of just addressing issues. So the older reviews may not be relevant in this regard. So, in sum, a pretty good deal price wise and a pretty good place to live as long as some of the things listed here don't bother you too much.”

“Chestnut Tower has been a quiet safe haven for me in busy Chicago. The apartments are clean and updated, with some of the nicer layouts and floor plans when compared to other apartment complexes nearby. The staff are responsive and eager to address any questions or issues that arise; from the front desk, to the management and repairmen- I have a lot of respect for the way that this community is handled.”

“My husband and I had a wonderful experience living in Chestnut Tower for the past 3+ years. The door staff, property management, and maintenance teams are always so helpful and friendly, and one of our key reasons for staying with the building for so long. Our unit was spacious and had incredible views, and the building is in an ideal location in River North as it's super central to anything in the city. We recently moved to purchase a home in another neighborhood, and even in our move-out they were incredibly accommodating and helpful in the process. We highly recommend Chestnut Tower and were so pleased with our time there!”

“Best value apartment in the city of Chicago. I did my extensive research before committing to Chestnut Tower. I'm so glad that i chose here. The apartment is luxury and the location is perfect. Its close to wholefood as well as CTA. Yet, the apartment is still quite. Highly recommended.”

“Beautifully renovated apartments. Abundance of excellent natural light. High-end finishes throughout. Great location with large and scenic rooftop space. Staff is very friendly, reliable and responsive. Very happy with my decision and would recommend to a friend.”

“easy!can search exactly what you want with keywords, prices, they should include a move in date filter maybe? like the map feature to see exactly where the apartment location would be. you are able to save your favorites and share ideas with friends or roommates.”

“This building is newly renovated, clean, and in a great area--convenient to everything, but on a quiet corner. The amenities are well maintained and the apartments are spacious and comfortable. It feels like a small building, which I enjoy, and the staff is extremely helpful”

“Having moved in quite recently we haven't experienced too much of the community. We especially like the doormen - they are all extremely kind and helpful. We are also excited to participate in the next resident event advertised in the elevator.”

“Chestnut Tower is a great community! The building is well maintained by a friendly, professional staff. The apartments are well appointed with great finishes and appliances. The dog park is clean and a great amenity to have in the middle of the city.”

“Management is very professional and friendly. Regular social events are held, giving one a chance to meet others in the community. The amenities ( especially the gym and business center) are great and well maintained. It's a great place to live.”

“The move-in process was top-notch! Every employee (rental staff, maintenance, door men, management) was extremely helpful and more than willing to help. I've lived in 6 different places in Chicago and I've never experienced this great of service!”

“This is one of the nicest buildings I've ever lived at in Chicago. Quiet street, yet really close to the CTA. The staff is awesome and the apartment units are top notch. Love the location and the amenities. I highly recommend living here at Chestnut Towers.”

“Just moved in. Building maintenance and management has been responsive and unfailingly friendly and helpful. There seems to be a sense of community and commitment to a well run building and with so many options in downtown Chicago, I really appreciate that sense of ownership.”

“I couldn't be happier with my move to Chestnut Tower. From my original visit to the time I moved in the staff has been incredibly helpful. If you're looking to move to the area I would highly recommend Chestnut Tower! Thank you to the management staff for making everything so easy.”

“Recent move-in experience was very efficient. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Apartment was in great condition when I moved in and anything I've asked to be fixed has been taken care of in a very timely manner. My initial experience has been very positive.”

“Truly professional management team and staff. Everything is well maintained and works. Centrally located in the city, noise free, amazing facilities...all that's missing is a small dip pool and sauna or steam. Very satisfied resident.”

“Love it here. Staff is so friendly and wonderful. Living here was a great choice and wish I found the building sooner. Can't say enough good things about the building and the staff. Requests are completed quickly and the building feels like home!!”

“It's great. We moved in about 9 months ago and we have had no issues yet. Every time we have a maintenance request, it is fixed within 24 hours. The staff is very friendly and is always throwing some event that you actually want to go to. I have referred a few friends to the building as well.”

“Chestnut Tower is a terrific place to live! The staff is very friendly and helpful, the amenities are great and the location can't be beat! The gym, business center and packages are available 24/7 and having a doorman makes me feel very safe.”

“Great building in a perfect location. Management is responsive (maintenance issues dealt with same day) and always making improvements to the amenities / common areas. The gym is small but well-equipped, and there is a dry cleaner onsite. No pool, but the roof deck makes up for it with nice seating and an amazing view of the city.”
