    Perfect spot

    The apartment in this building are wonderful. It is approximately 1 block away from Rogers Park wonderful to take the family and kids to walk. One of its greatest features is that its few feet away from train station offering a close and perfect distance from transportation wonderful for people new in Chicago. Great neighborhood and friendly neighbors.
