Safe and Beautiful with Great Amenities

This building is not incredibly well-located in terms of public transportation to the university, but it is accessible for multiple modes of transport (Line 2, Campus Shuttle, Metra Electric) with 8-15 minutes of walking. It is within walking distance (10-15 minutes) for multiple grocery stores and is a lively, safe, and friendly neighborhood. It is well-located for activities in the city as well. The building itself is very clean, quiet, and well-managed, and the amenities are top-tier. The application process is tedious and could last anywhere from 1 week to 6 weeks.

Good living space

Great location, good space for price, though constant renovations and, at times, difficult management can sour the experience. RCN provides a basic plan for free, which includes decent internet and cable, which can be upgraded for cheap. Security is nice and charming, the layout of the building is nice, and the store downstairs is wonderful with very nice and personable staff.

River City- Great Location

Spacious condo for the area, which is close to transit and in a great location for the price. Downsides include lack of temperature control in the winter where the residence becomes extremely hot. Also no airflow within the space any time of year and room does not have window to outside/sunshine. What seems like constant construction in combination with thin walls is inconvenient to say the least.

Gross and terrible

Management are the rudest people ever. Not helpful at all and when you try to get a simple answer they act like they're annoyed. Building maintenance is a joke. The roof leaks when it rains. The building smells awful. The only thing good is the gardening.

Reviewed by UIC Medical Student living at 1720 S Michigan Condos
As a single woman it was very important for me to live in an area that was safe given that the medical school schedule will require me to come home at night. Also it gives me great peace of mind to live in a building with doormen 24/7 in case anything were to happen. However, this has come at at a great cost.
Reviewed by UChicago LLM Student living at Alta Roosevelt
Quite a number of nice bars and restaurants within walking distance. Groceries also (Target, Trader Joe's, and Whole Foods about 15 minutes by foot; small local shop about 3 mins). Bus stop to go to the university about 10 mins away (number 2, Hyde Park Express).
Reviewed by Feinberg Med Student living at Eleven Thirty
I really like South Loop. It is definitely an older crowd (young 30s and up) which suited me better - it has families and schools but still feels close to downtown which I really enjoy. Lots going on close by and lots of grocery stores too.
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at 1111 Wabash
South Loop is quieter than the Loop, but you will get more space. Ideal for parents, people with partners that work remotely, or people looking for more space for their money. Outside of Bears games, has far fewer tourists to deal with than the Loop.
Across Michigan Ave from Grant Park. 10-minute walk from the Shedd Aquarium, Field Museum, Adler Planetarium, and Soldier Field.
Roosevelt station is very close by and incredibly convenient if you don't mind taking the train or buses, but it is a transit hub, so expect increased numbers and variety of people.
Not far from the rest of the Loop, and you can still easily make your way north for study groups and social events.

I literally love living in the south loop. I can walk practically anywhere

less of a tourist trap than streeterville, still downtown atmosphere. There's a cozy little neighborhood full of townhouses that's nice for a walk.
Reviewed by Rush Med Student living at 1000 South Clark
Pros: Central to all major forms of transport, proximity to downtown, museums, and activities

Cons: Proximity to all major inbound train tracks increases the noise level. Proximity to Roosevelt Road which is high-traffic, treeless, and not bike-friendly.
Reviewed by UChicago Law Student living at The Cooper
It's a fine location. Not great, not horrible. I like a lot of other neighborhoods better but this is closer to school.
