One of the best spots in Evanston

The Evanston Galleria has the best location right in downtown Evanston, making it easy to get to bars, restaurants, and grocery stores. The apartments within the building are very similar in styling, with a nice kitchen, high ceilings, great natural light, and well laid-out space. They are on the larger side of Evanston apartments. Finishes are relatively modern, and the building has much less of a "hotel" feel than some other large complexes nearby. There are a number of closets within the unit for storage, plus in-unit laundry.
We generally don't hear our neighbors, but the wall adjacent to the hallway is rather thin so sometimes we hear hallway noise as people come and go. We occasionally hear what's going on in the street, but it has not been a big issue. Also, sound does travel throughout the whole unit because walls don't go all the way to the ceiling between the bedroom and kitchen.
The building doesn't have any real amenities as compared with others in the area (no gym, meeting space), but there are 2 gyms within a block. Most (maybe all) units come with an uncovered but secure parking spot included, though individual landlords could in theory charge extra. We haven't had any problems with building maintenance, or with our landlords, but that could vary across units.

Love the space!

Tall ceilings and generally big living space is awesome. Only downside is each is individually owned so you have to luck out with your landlord / property manager to be quick in getting stuff fixed. You may have to play phone tag with like 3 people to get other work done in the apt. Overall love it though, but definitely keep expectations low for service.

Awesome location!

The Galleria is a great location! Close to everything in Evanston and a few minutes closer to campus than most of the other Kellogg-heavy residential buildings. It's a historic building and is known as a Kellogg favorite. Both the CTA and Metra stops are on Church St, just a few blocks away. The parking deck is great, and being in the same building as Bat 17 is a bonus!

Great location, large space for $

Galleria has been a great place to live. The location and proximity to downtown restaurants, bars, target, the new collectivo(!), and other apartment buildings is unbeatable. The apartments are large and spacious, and the high ceilings are amazing. Lots of Kellogg students, but quieter than some of the larger apartment buildings.

Great location, nice space - limited amenities

The Galleria is mostly great to live in. It is a majority Kellogg couples, and there is a community (but not as strong as other places due to a lack of any common spaces/amenities).

Best things: high ceilings, newer interior than many condos, easy code entry for residents and guests (no doormen), individual control on AC temp, common spaces are kept very clean, located in the center of downtown (right near Target, 24hr fitness, and EAC).

Downsides: radiator system is old and makes dripping and very loud clanking noises during the winter (not just when it starts, but all the time), 1 elevator breaks every other week, and the attached parking is on the roof and uncovered.

Great Building, Limited Amenities

The Galleria is great! Apartments are nice and spacious and the location couldn't be better. Of all the buildings I've seen in Evanston, I'm very glad to have ended up in the Galleria. Only downside is it's a bit of an older building so limited amenities. Bathrooms are a bit small and closet space is limited as well.

Overlooked gem

This is a less well-known apartment complex but it is incredible.

Large windows let in a lot of sunlight.

The floor plan makes for a smaller bedroom and tiny bathroom but very open and large living room. The ~20 ft ceiling makes the place feel huge. Great for having people over.

No amenities in the building. However, the monthly rent price reflects that. You pay less in monthly rent and then can allocate your money to the amenities you would like.

Amazing location. We are less than a block from two gyms. Across the street from multiple coffee shops. Target is less than 100 yards away. Both the Metra and Purple line are 1-2 blocks away but you don't hear them. Evanston Rocks is down the street. Overall the location is extremely central to all the locations a Kellogg student would need and central to where other Kellogg students are located.

Beautiful loft apartment

Not many amenities (no gym, common room, attendant, etc.), but beautiful apartment building in the heart of downtown Evanston. More of a students with JVs vibe here.

Downtown Evanston Reviews

Downtown Evanston has everything you need. E2 is walkable to campus, a Target, and plenty of restaurants, as well as Metra and L stations to get to Chicago. Right across the street is a Subway, a Thai restaurant, and a pizza place, plus there’s a 7-Eleven about a block away, so you’re very close to options if you need food in a pinch.
Close to downtown Evanston but a bit far from E2/the reserve. One of closest apartments to Trader Joes/Whole Foods/Jewel Osco while also being close to campus. Very close to the lake!
Downtown Evanston has everything you need from a downtown including grocery stores, restaurants, and convenience stores.
Downtown Evanston is great - plenty of great food within walking distance, Metra and El trains right nearby, a really nice place to be. Only downside is it's far from school and the only truly walkable grocery store is a Whole Foods, which can get expensive. Overall, wouldn't want to live elsewhere though.
Close to grocery stores and restaurants. Very easy access to Lake Michigan as well!
There isn't much to do here, but that's true pretty much everywhere in Evanston. We're in walking distance to all of "downtown" Evanston, so restaurants / fast food / subway, etc. It's a slightly longer walk than desired to Kellogg, but that's fine.
The apartment is central to downtown and is walking distance to most bars, restaurants, shops, beach, etc. Evanston is a bit of a sleepy town (especially during the pandemic...I've been told it was much more vibrant pre-pandemic).
I live just south of the main downtown area, and it's the perfect intersection of being close to the action but also a bit removed when you want some quiet. I like being a in a more residential pocket, so there is slightly less foot traffic and really nice areas to walk around with a dog, etc.
