If you love baseball — particularly if you love the Chicago Cubs — there's only one neighborhood for you: Lakeview! Bordering Lake Michigan on the north side of Chicago directly above Lincoln Park, Lakeview houses one of Chicago’s most popular destinations: Wrigley Field. Originally built in 1914 for Federal League’s Chicago Whales, Wrigley Field is one the oldest still-operating stadiums in the MLB. It was renamed Wrigley Field in 1926 by then-owner William Wrigley Jr., a chewing gum manufacturer.
Of course, there's more to Lakeview than baseball. From the luxury high-rise apartments along Lake Shore Drive to the tree-filled streets and single-family homes in Graceland West, there's something for everyone in Lakeview. This large neighborhood consists of several smaller enclaves, including Wrigleyville, Boystown, and North Halsted. Lakeview features several theaters, such as the Music Box Theater and the Playground Theater, as well as music venues and shops.

Property Ratings at 516 W. Briar Pl.
Overall, this is a good building located in one of the best neighborhoods in Chicago. You're a 5 minute walk from the lake, and you can step outside your door and find every kind of restaurant, bar, and shop you could ever dream of. The building itself is nice. It's a decent amount of space for the money and overall it's clean and quiet. (There is definitely not a courtyard at this building, though... not sure why they have that listed). My unit has a gorgeous view of the skyline. The building engineer is the nicest man you'll ever meet and lives in the building, so if you ever have a maintenance emergency, he will be there right away. (It's always best to just contact him directly. If you submit a maintenance request through PEAK or Parliament, good luck even getting a response, let alone getting your problem fixed). Laundry is on-site, but nothing special. There are a few machines that they consistently raise the prices for, and at any given time, 2-3 washers and driers aren't working, leaving only one or two functioning, and leaving you with a lot of wasted quarters. The building used to be owned by Parliament and is now owned by PEAK Properties. Both companies are kind of incompetent and rude. Laticia at Parliament is always nasty and unpleasant, and Raul at PEAK is nice enough, but never seems to know anything about anything and has given me information and then contradicted himself with conflicting information multiple times. I'm not sure why both Parliament and PEAK are still both operating, but be prepared to have to deal with both offices and jump through hoops from time to time. That being said, every issue is worth it to get to live in East Lakeview for the price.
