I will start by saying when you take a tour take the picture posted in the site? I do not know where these views an the size of units comes from. Overall staff and and maintenance do rather good work. You will hear EVERYTHING your neighbors do in the hallways and through the walls 24/7, this poses a problem when trying to enjoy your 2000.00 dollar a month living space. Elevators, well lets say in my two yrs there they worked 40 percent of the time. I feel D&K cares less about who stays and goes. Long term renters rents go up an up showing no allegiance to keeping good tenants in their building, thus you will ALWAYS have new neighbors. I found that to be very annoying! Location is good except you will hear sirens from the hospital constantly, this interrupts sleep and overall enjoyment of your home. One other complaint and never was able to figure this one out and is very important to the renter. " Gas" charges that are added to your very cold unit in the winter months. One is Sharing! !!!!!! Heating the entire buildings heating cost- be aware- since Chicago has a COLD winter this 5 months of extra charges , which is measurable and is always 2 months in the rear is added to the already ever rising rent!

Beware this apartment building has been under CONSTANT construction for several years I've lived here. There is usually only 1 elevator working, so I often have to wait 5-10 minutes for it. They are remodeling all units, so if you will ever be at home 9am-5pm, you will get a terrible migraine from the drilling, pounding, hammering etc. it starts at 9am on the dot (or earlier I've had to complain waking up at 8am to it). Building also being old has heat that barel works, non workin fan in bathroom so you can't close the door while showering, toilets that haven't worked etc. FYI they will not give you a fair price on rent- they increased mine very year then I found out they were offering lower rent to new residents! Location is amazing, so it's too bad. Once you live here, they unfortunately do not care if you are inconvenienced.

We have been nothing but delighted by our experience at the Chicagoan. Our apartment is well maintained, fresh and updated. The common areas, including a small gym and pool, are equally well maintained. The staff, including management, front desk and maintenance teams, is patient (we viewed our apartment nearly a half dozen times), professional and always willing to assist. Certainly not everything is perfect, hiccups happen (the elevators are being updated and dry cleaning service, pardon the pun, is being ironed-out), but these issues are addressed with a sense of understanding, urgency and an apology. After having viewed more than 12 buildings and 30 apartments, we could not be happier with our decision to live at the Chicagoan. It has proven to be a quiet, well run sanctuary, quickly and easily becoming our home. If there were a purchase program, we would be owners.

Live here for almost a year. No complaints. Friendly staff. Easy commute. Don't want to move but need to go where the job is.

I had a great experience living here. Lanelle and the front door staff know most of the residents by name and were always helpful and friendly. Maintenance always handled requests promptly and they were also very nice. I also thought management was very accommodating and relatively easy to work with. The only downside to the Chicagoan is that parking is expensive and the parking garage was cramped, but that's to be expected anywhere in the area.

No complaints. Great location. One minute walk to red line. My favorite food chick-fil-a is a block away.

I have been living here for two years and will be moving for work. The staff has been pleasant and addressed my problems. Loved the location. I can walk to work. It has been convenient for me after ZipCar was added, so I can go outlet mall shopping. (I don't have a car.)I would live here again if I get relocated back to Chicago.
