North Harbor Tower

The apartment is modern, there's a grocery store in the building, friendly staff. It's a 10 minute walk to the station and very pet friendly. It's within a 5-10 minute walk from other student buildings

Quiet with a great view

North Harbor Tower is a quiet, affordable family-friendly building in Lake Shore East with incredible views and nice amenities. It is older than some of the other buildings in the area, but is walkable to Millennium station and right by the lake shore trail and Lake Shore East park.

Great Location and Condos!

We have lived here for 4 years. The front doormen are the absolute best. You can't beat the location if you work in the loop. There is a Mariano's in the park. You can walk to the lake, Maggie Daily Park, Grant Park, Millennium Park, the riverwalk.

North Harbor Tower

Our experience overall has been a positive one. The staff work very hard to keep the building clean, resolve maintenance issues and treat residents with respect. The amenities could use some upgrades it it is an older building. Overall I would recommend the building.

Great location and great for families.

I like living at North Harbor Pointe because the staff is great very attentive and the neighborhood is especially good for people who have children or pets. The views you get from the higher floor apartments are beautiful. However, the rent has gone up here over a ridiculous amount in just 2 years. The kitchens are small but have everything you need. Also, they do offer ample closet space so that is a plus. Gym is great and they also have Fooda 1 per week. They really try to do things for the residents several times a year like host events with drinks and catered food.

Great building, Okay Management

I love my apartment, but the management is so-so. I have friends at other properties who find their management office very helpful and attentive, but I have not found that here. Work orders don't always seem to be a priority and it's hard to get a hold of anyone from the office.

Great Place to Live

Amazing location, amenities and views. Located near work, Navy Pier, Millennium Park, Marianos grocery store and many more restaurants. Everything is clean and quiet - and family friendly. I also love how many pets live in the building. Wonderful outdoor area as well.

The Loop Reviews

Reviewed by UChicago Law Student living at The Tides
Very secure and tranquil. Very close to public transportations. Namely millennium station which I use to ride the Metra trains to campus.
Very close to the lake and navy pier
Great park surrounded by all the buildings.
There’s good supermarket that has everything. A couple restaurants and coffee shops are also there.
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at Mila
Amazing place to have a social life! It is super close to Gleacher and to where recruiting events take place. Most Boothies live in this area and that helps creating a nice community. West loop with amazing restaurants is 2 metro stops/5min uber. TNDCs also happen walking distance. Its also where most touristic attractions are so its great for when friends/family visit you.
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at Millennium Park Plaza
Safe neighborhood and good because it’s where most Booth students live but it’s a little sterile esp at night. Lots of tourists around. I would not live in this neighborhood if most other students didnt live here. However it is convenient to get to most places around chicago. In the middle of everything
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at Columbus Plaza Apartments
Columbus plaza is on the quieter side, a few blocks away from Michigan. Tides and park millennium are even quieter but lack the river views that CP offers. It can be a bit too empty at night, which may be of concern to some. Most of the nearby restaurants in the pedway focus on serving office workers so they close around 6pm. Great access to river walk for running or biking.
Reviewed by Northwestern Medill Student living at 215 West
The Loop has pros and cons. Living in the Loop is nice because during the day up until about 8 p.m. there are people walking around the streets which is nice because you feel more secure walking. However, on weekends and after a certain time at night it empties and it can be a little eerie.

That being said, if you're anywhere near State St. or the Mag mile, there's pretty much people around at any given hour. It's fun to live downtown because the streets are bustling with interesting people, sometimes there's live music on street corners and there are a lot of restaurants and shops.
Reviewed by Working Professional living at The Tides
Beautiful area in a great location with a dog park, playground, and full service grocery store in short walking distance. Restaurants and transit are just ok in this area, but not a bad walk to the "L" and that opens up the restaurant options. No close-by childcare for kids under preschool age, but great preschool and private elementary school, with high price tags. Ubers often find this place impossible to locate due to GPS's going crazy with the multiple layers of Wacker, Randolph, Columbus, and East South Water Street.
Reviewed by Chicago Resident living at Pittsfield Building
The Loop is an unlikely place to live but I love it. You are in the heart of the city, close to every L line possible, very good restaurants and walking distance to River North without paying River North prices for apartments. Apartments are smaller throughout the neighborhood but if you are an urbanite and don't mind limited closet space you will love it here. Mostly everyone is walking distance to work.
Reviewed by Chicago Resident living at Oakwood 200 Squared
Great location close to blue, brown, green, pink, orange and red lines. 10 minute walk to State St., 5-10 minutes to River North, 15 minutes to Michigan Avenue. Grocery stores aren't really walkable but most people in the building use PeaPod/Instacart. Safe to walk around at night. A lot of new restaurants (quick service) opening in the area.
