Great, quiet place to live

Great place to live, can be pricey if living alone on PhD Stipend

This building is absolutely perfect to live in. The location is very convenient for accessing downtown Evanston and for walking to campus and is right next to the CTA #201 bus line as well as the Davis Metra and L stations. Amenities are fairly nice, with a communal lounge area/outdoor space and small gym. The building is very secure and management is great, with 24/7 doorstaff, management on-site most days of the week, and an on-site building engineer. It can be fairly expensive to live here as a graduate student if you are renting, but if you can afford the cost, it's absolutely worth it!

Very responsive management and 24 hour door person

Sherman Plaza is Very safe, cozy and well managed!

Sherman plaza is one of the best deals for a Evanston high-rise. Located just across the street from the subway, the building puts you in the heart of downtown Evanston - close to all restaurants, grocery stores, and bars. Best of all, you don't need to leave the warmth of the building to go to the new Target, which just moved in to the new ground-floor retail space. Units in SP also have substantial storage (lockers and parking spaces) and square footage for a lower price than many other modern high-rises in town.

Excellent place to live, great location and management

This room is on the 21st floor facing south and west, so you can have a good view of downtown Chicago and Lake Michigan. The room is very clean, and the island kitchen is very useful when you invite your friends. The apartment itself is also very clean and the security is good. LA fitness and Target are in the same building, so you don't have to go outside to go to these places. This is super nice during the winter.

Low key, great space

Sherman plaza is probably the best building in Evanston; it is also expensive. The rooms are very nice, the location is right downtown and across from both the L and Metra stations, and the walk is manageable ~25 minutes or so to the glub. The management is very responsive and effective (unlike say E2), the internet works well, and the building actually maintains thermal control during the fall and spring when most of the others are sweltering. There are a lot of rules and the building is anti-party, so don't pick it if you plan on hosting a lot of friends. And most units are owned so it can be tough to find a spot. But overall its a great place to live if you want quiet and quality for a price.
