Neighborhood

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.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Bed Bugs and thin floors!

When I first moved in 2020 it was an ok place, the floors/ ceiling are very thin, so you will hear your upstairs neighbor very easily! In summer/ fall 2023 someone in the 4th floor get bed bugs very very badly, they did not report this on time! I unfortunately got them as well and I have been dealing with this issue since November 2023-July 2024! The management office hears you, but also questions if they are really in my apartment. I do not recommend moving into apartments in the 80-82 range of each floor! There is a maintenance person onsite and thankfully he is the only one that gets things done, most of the time! The washers and dryer also suck!

EXCELLENT Property for Dog owners, ESPECIALLY if you have a Breed others are worried about

I have had the tremendous fortune to live here for the past two years and can't say enough about how much I enjoyed my time here. Especially as the owner of a dog some places consider "too high risk" (she's a Belgian Malinois, very similar to a German Shepherd) by many places in the city- Legend Group stands out. The Lakeview East neighborhood is amazing, there is a ton to do, and you're a 15 minute walk to the Red Line (and Wrigley for that matter). The Building Supervisor, Orlando, is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet and the management group is attentive and has always treated me like a person (especially in these wild times). If I was not moving out of the city for my new job I'd 100% be renewing my lease!
