Sandburg Village has been Condo since 1979. Units are rented through the unit owner an not any of the building management offices. The building managers manage each condo association and not the actual condo units. Sandburg Village was built between 1961 and 1972 comprising of many townhomes, 8 high-rises and 1 mid-rise. To this day it holds the record for the most units in a single condo-conversion from apartments. Sandburg Village was never built as low-income housing as some suggest. It was built as an urban renewal project to bolster the land between Chicago's Gold Coast and the Public Housing projects one mile to the west. The buildings are built very well using methods that are common today...40 years later. There are many buildings in Chicago that resemble the "typical" Sandburg design as the apartments are very well planned with generous room sizes that inclusing separate dining space the most people convert to office or dens these days. I rented in Sandburg for 1 year in the late 80's and have been a resident/owner since. Parking: Where else in the Gold Coast can you park your car in a heated garage for a bit more than $100 per month? Sandburg Village has the best parking rates in the city...let along the area. With many of the units being renovated, you will find many different looking apartments in many levels of modernization. Sandburg Village is one of the most cost effective areas to live when you price space by the square foot, the area and the amenities.

Not only landlords but also maintainance people randomly enter your apartment without your permission while you are away.

You hear everything your neighbor is doing. Parking sucks, you're stuck in the waiting list for at least six months.

Buildings are going condo, renters don't get much respect.
