About The Hickory
OUR LEASE RUN FROM AUGUST 1 AND RUN THROUGH THE FOLLOWING JULY 30TH.
At this time we are fully leased until AUGUST 1, 2027. From time to time apartments become available mid term. We are now taking reservations for our waiting list.
The... University of Illinois dominates the local Champaign-Urbana rental market. For this reason our leases always end July 30th. From time to time, a tenant moves in the midst of a lease because they have purchased their first home or are taking a new position out of the area and buys out the existing lease. When this happens an apartment may become available off our normal lease period. HOWEVER our leases always end July 30th. UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS - OUR LEASE ALWASY BEGIN AUGUST FIRST AND RUN THROUGH THE FOLLOWING JULY 30TH.
Included in the rent is free parking in our private lot. The building is a zero lot line thus our parking lot is a block and a half away. It is adjacent to our large private tenant fitness center (605 N Neil St).
If you wish to be part of the micro-urban lifestyle that downtown Champaign provides this really is your best choice.
This is our largest, and most appointed apartment at The Hickory. Large and spacious, apartment 105 is seldom available. Typically tenants stay for five or more years. Previous tenants have been asst. U of I football coach, concert pianist, and corporate executive.
Two large bedrooms; one with the entire west wall closets, while the smaller north bedroom has its own walk-in closet. The kitchen has its own separate walk-in pantry. Bedrooms have laminate tile floors. The bathroom flooring is ceramic tile. All the commons areas is bamboo flooring.
In keeping with the entire building's theme, the apartment is an open floorplan with loft styling throughout including exposed spiral ducts.
If you are discerning, wishing a more sophisticated urban setting while living in Champaign this apartment is a must see.
The building is quiet, professional, secured, and the rent includes free parking (a rarity in downtown) and free Wi-Fi. It is located on the northwest corner of Washington Street and Hickory Street. It is two stories with a total square footage of 27,422. In addition to the 18 apartments it also has three retail stores. They are JJ Realtors, Mother Ghost, and Planted - residential realtors, custom women's clothing, and house plants respectively.

Constructed with extra thick insulated party walls (12 inches between apartments). We firmly hold that apartment buildings should be quiet. We went the extra mile to create quiet apartments.
Each apartment floor plan is unique. All have open floor plans. Finishes are similar throughout.
We pride ourselves on quick attention to maintenance requests - we even change your light bulbs!
The Hickory Street Apartments has traditionally had a large University of Illinois influence. Over the last ten years, we have had a U of I football coach, administrators, professors, scientists, and graduate students as tenants. Additionally, tenants have been professionals, business owners, managers, IT mangers, attorneys, and even a former Champaign mayor.
PHOTOS ARE ONLY OF APARTMENT 105.
We are firm on not wanting our tenants to be rent burdened. Our policy is firm at a 3 to 1 ratio, net monthly income to rent.
TENANTS MUST PLACE WATER AND POWER INTO THEIR NAMES!!
