My experience so far has been great! Spacious units with updated appliances. The concrete floors/ceilings are very good at reducing noise between the floors.

The perfect location in Oak Park. With no traffic, you can drive to downtown Chicago within 25 minutes, to O’Hare in 20, and it’s a couple of minutes walk to catch Metra or the Green Line.

Great location with many stores and restaurants within walking distance. Unfortunately, there continue to be inconsiderate neighbors slamming doors & yelling at their kids in the hallways.
