The neighborhood is delightful. Beautiful, tree lined streets with gardens along the sidewalk or tucked into entrances. The apartment was perfect for us and exactly as described. We wanted separate bedrooms, peace and quiet, and got them all! In addition to David's suggestions, we found Kitchen 17 & Chicago Diner for vegan options for my friend I was meeting in Chicago. A Divvy bike station was a block and a half away with direct access to the Lakefront Trail a few blocks further offering closeup views of the lake and an easy ride to the Navy Pier. If you want to walk, which we did, Wrigley Field was within walking distance and we didn't have to worry about event parking! Briar Theater, home to Blue Man Group is just around the corner. Attending a show was a spontaneous, fun choice that was a joyous end to our first day.
