Love this location, and the large spaacious flooplans. Next big plus is no popcorn ceilings.
Great staff and love the events they host every month.

Honestly, living at 420 East Ohio Street in Chicago has been great. The apartments are big and the rent isn't crazy, plus the staff is super nice. They've got a gym, pool, mailroom, and storage which is a huge plus. The neighborhood is really quiet and safe, which I love. Definitely would recommend living here if you're looking in Chicago.

I’m an international student and living at 420 E Ohio has become a nightmare. Since the apartment's AC was turned on, I’ve been suffering from unbearable noise from the rooftop water tower that makes it impossible to sleep. At first the manager said they cannot do anything and let me get out of the office and said "your room is habitable enough". After repeated complaints, management said they will try to expedite repairs but now say it will still take a month, with no alternative solutions or... compensation offered. When I asked nothing but just to terminate my lease legally under RLTO, they coldly rejected it, claiming the noise is “reasonable” without any measurement report, even though I've tested it exceeds 50 dB at night in my room and I was feeling like sleeping on the railway!
This isn’t just my own problem—residents on multiple floors are affected, but management still lets us wait for one whole month for repairing, bearing the noise by ourselves. Clearly they care more about collecting rent than the well-being of their tenants. If you value your peace and health, I highly recommend looking elsewhere.

Thank you for sharing your experience, and we sincerely apologize for the distress and inconvenience you've endured.
We understand how important a quiet and comfortable living environment is, especially for our international residents who are... adjusting to a new country and academic or professional responsibilities. The noise issue you've described is certainly concerning, and we regret that our initial communication and response did not meet your expectations or needs.
While the rooftop equipment issue has proven more complex than anticipated, please know that the repairs have been made, and the noise has been corrected.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out directly to our management team so we can find a more satisfactory resolution together.
