building manager who basically gets to it whenever he wants. The package room is extremely disorganized and packages are often left randomly around the building (in the lobby or next to mail boxes instead of in the designated package room). Also please be aware since this is a pet friendly building, the carpeted hallways often smell of dog pee and so does the front door. PPM also raised my rent over $200/month and gave less than 2 weeks notice to alert them whether we would renew. I would avoid this building and PPM at all costs. There are much better buildings to live in Chicago and Lakeview/LP specifically.

future. The window sills had HAIR PAINTED INTO THEM. The AC units were moldy and old. The kitchen was cramped. The refrigerator was old and yellow on the inside, despite multiple cleans. The gas stove was from the stone ages. The transition strip into the master bedroom closet was completely unrepaired and had nails sticking out. The building refused to change it out. The "second bedroom" was a glorified closet. The restroom was appalling. THE TOILET SEAT IS A RESTROOM URINAL. I kid you not. The sink was always yellowing from the hot water's rust. The tub was unbearably tiny. When anyone flushes the toilet, you're scalded. or bathed in ice water for at least 10 seconds. When we told the bulding, they said it was a part of the building's vintage charm. Most dangerously, during the dead of winter, the heater would often give out, sometimes for 24+ hours. When we told the building engineer, he often took his time in fixing the issue, or dismissed our concerns altogether. He'd sometimes come into the unit and say "it feels warm to me," despite the fact that the radiators clearly were not on. He only fixed the issue when we took thermal measurements and threatened to contact the city. In general, the building engineer was responsive but often abrasive, dismissive, and only willing to budge when we contacted his supervisors over a pressing issue. Several of our packages were stolen from the building's package room. The laundry room is fine, but the machines often didn't work, and when it got busy, our laundry was often taken out by others midcycle. I would not recommend this place to anyone, especially for the ridiculous price. Don't be fooled by the pictures the building posts.

lake as I can be off of Diversey and has a beautiful park with running paths. Easy access to both lake shore express buses to get downtown and the brown line. Marcel our building engineer is attentive 24 hours a day and wonderfully caring. It's like having a second Dad who is always concerned with your safety and well-being within the building. My apartment received new carpets, hardwood floor, beautiful counter-tops and cabinetry before we moved in, and I've been happy with the space and quality. PPM was easy to work with and I was able to find a perfect home after 1 day of apartment searching. I couldn't be happier with my first apartment in the city!
