Place to live if you want to be social

Very Social!

Highly recommend living at E2 if you're looking for a convenient, popular building with lots of other Kellogg students. I appreciate living in a place where I have group meetings, and can always find someone to walk home with. It's also closer to the Hub than some of the other popular options like Centrum. That said, I'm paying for that convenience/dorm-like atmosphere: the building is overpriced and management is slow to respond to needs such as the elevators breaking down. For me, this tradeoff is well worth it and I plan to stay next year.

E2 has been a convenient place to live. There are a lot of Kellogg students that live here. I have countless section mates in my building and a lot of meet-ups happen at E2 because so many people live here. The apartments are generally decent and the noise from other apartments isn't bad. The biggest trade-off is the building management. Elevators go down more than they should, although they say they are fixing it. There is also random maintenance happening that makes some noise. Overall I think the convenience is worth it but that may change if other apartments get more popular. I also have a car and appreciate their covered parking, although I have to pay for it. That was my biggest factor between here and Centrum.

If you’re looking to live at E2 but want some space and more privacy I can’t recommend the townhouses here enough. They’re super livable and great for hosting everything from small group dinners to pregames. They’re hard to snag but if you can find two other people to live with I’d go for it! E2 is a bit on the expensive side as compared to other apartment buildings but the convenience and ability to meet other people in the building especially during cold weather should not be underestimated.

It is great to live in E2 becuase so many other Kellogg students live here. There are also really nice amenities. However, there are quite a few downsides. The walls are pretty thin, so I can hear pretty much everything from my roommates everywhere in the apartment. Also, the elevators seem to break all the time. Finally, management is largely incompetent. They regularly make errors and can be difficult to deal with. It seems like we should get more considering how much we are paying in rent.

E2 is super overpriced. You get great amenities, but can only use these for a few months a year. Management is average at best, bad at worst. The building has had issues like leaks and flooding at times and things are not handled as professionally as you'd expect for how much we pay.

That said the social aspect has been amazing - most of my friends live in the building and my social scene revolves around the building. It feels like the Kellogg dorms. I'm glad I chose to live here.

E2 is a little ways out of the way of downtown evanston but lots of Kellogg meetings / bus pickups / etc are there so it is definitely convenient. The pool and gym are nice too although overall I feel the building is becoming outdated.

Solid and easy. Better deals to be had, but most popular option for Kellogg students. Nice to have de facto meeting spot for group projects/summer parties -- but downtown Evanston isn't that big, so definitely can be justified to save money elsewhere. Amenities are nice, things occasionally break down or have issues, management is decently responsive. Great water pressure.

Social Hub of Kellogg, which makes it really convenient.
