Off the beaten path gem

My wife and I found our apartment through an apartment broker. We have a lake view, 24/7 doorman, safe package delivery, convenient valet parking, rooftop lounge (with dog relief area), gym, and friendly interactions with condo owners in our building. Situated across the street from Target, but a 15 minute walk to the train for Hyde Park, and a 10 minute walk to MPP.

Great Area

The area is great! Everything is near by our apartment. Work is walkable distance. Cat trains are right by the apartment such as, redline, blue line, pink line, orange line. I would definitely recommend this area to others. It does get loud sometimes.

Metropolis

Living at Metropolis is great because of its location. Everything is close by the department stores, restaurants, Michigan Ave, and public transportation. The downside of living here are the rules imposed on the tenets. For example, if you bring a piece of furniture on your own you have to make a deposit of $200. That can be inconvenient for people.

Very secure and tranquil. Very close to public transportations. Namely millennium station which I use to ride the Metra trains to campus.
Very close to the lake and navy pier
Great park surrounded by all the buildings.
There’s good supermarket that has everything. A couple restaurants and coffee shops are also there.

Loop is central and great to get to other neighborhoods. Quick train access to Hyde Park (35min door to seat). Mostly MBA students in building

Feels like a neighborhood even though you are in the heart of the city
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at 73 East Lake
The Loop is great because it is so easy to get anywhere in the city! Also, we are next to many cool sights, and River North is very walkable.
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at Mila
Location is central to everything and with majority of students living here, hard to envision living elsewhere during Booth
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at Millennium Park Plaza
Great access to stores, restaurants, and excellent transit to get anywhere in Chicago you may want to go to!
Reviewed by UIC Medical Student living at 200 N Dearborn St
Location is good in terms of transit proximity. The loop is not a great area for food/activities but river north is very close and has grocery stores/restaurants, etc.
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at Millennium Park Plaza
It’s the loop. It’s full of tourists, but all my friends live here. Trade offs are everywhere. Sooooo close to train (under rated).
