Mac Property Management

I love the building, the people that work here, maintenance is quick and extremely helpful. The area is very nice and the neighborhood is the best!

Great sunny rooms with nice hardwood floors, in-unit washer dryer

I'm pretty happy living here! The only downsides are that the front desk is staffed about as often as not and that Mac rendered the key fob to get in the building and activate the elevators obsolete, so it takes 30 seconds to load the digital keys every time I want to get in from the cold.

Overall, the Shoreland is terrific. It is not inexpensive, but you get a great value of nice amenities right across from the lake and an easy bus ride from campus. (The 171 -- one of the buses that UChicago students can ride for free -- stops right outside the Shoreland Monday through Saturday.)
Usually, the building is very quiet; the exception is during the summertime, when there are regularly fireworks and very loud gatherings in the parking lot outside. While that is a nuisance, the value of the Shoreland the rest of the year makes it easily worth it for me.

I moved to this apartment because it's only a 20-minute walk from the law school. My experience has been positive. It's an old building and the radiators are a little loud at times (and run a little hot, which I can't change), but I've had no major issues. The minor service requests I had were responded to quickly. One of my neighbors is obnoxiously loud at times, but that's just apartment life. Be warned that there's no doorman, and packages will be stolen.

In my opinion, The Shoreland is the best apartment (for the price) in Hyde Park. Its amenities are modern and well-functioning, and its staff extremely helpful (and pleasant). The building feels new, and the location (right next to the lake trail, and a short walk to campus or the nearby Whole Foods or Trader Joe's) is unbeatable. The 171 bus has a stop at the apartment, which makes getting to and from campus extremely easy.

The only downside is that during the summer, it becomes extremely loud at night. Chicago residents like to park their cars in the parking lot just outside and blast music all night along every night of the week. (That is not hyperbole.) The CPD is quite responsive (and succesfully gets people to stop), but they can only do so much, so do be aware that from mid May through Juneteeth, if it's anything like last year, you should invest in a good pair of earplugs and some naps.

I love the building, but there have definitely been some maintenance issues — I'd recommend reaching out to people in the building before signing to know which floors are best / have had issues!

I like this building. No complaints. It's a little pricey but other than that I've had a good experience.

I really enjoy living in the Windermere. I live in a 3 person unit, and we haven't had any problems with the unit or any of the appliances. Management is pretty responsive, and lots of other students live in our building and the buildings around us.

East Park Tower is generally a good place to live (close to the lake, easy access to transportation, clean), but has had a few issues recently. There has been a problem with staffing at the front desk at Del Prado (where packages are delivered), making it impossible to access mail when there is nobody there. The larger issue is the new entry system, which requires a phone to access and frequently malfunctions, leaving tenants stuck outside.

It has been great so far. The location is amazing, everyone is very nice, and they address problems quickly.

Comes with furniture which was very convenient. Is a 20-25 minute walk from the Law School and is right by target and close to TJs and Whole Foods

Haven’t had any issues living here for 2 years. Lots of law students live in the building and the bus picks up outside.

Solid, Convenient Location

Great location but pricey
