The apartment is very nice and close in proximity to transportation and restaurants. It is on the 3rd floor so be prepared to hear noise from the street. The view from the rooftop is amazing as well as the view from the apartment. You can see a great view of Willis Tower and other buildings. Getting from point A to point B is quick, the L is just North of the building - you can catch all trains, Red, Blue, Orange etc... so it is very convenient.
