Overall rating 8.6/10, based on 10 renter reviews Write a review
Good alternative to Mac in East Hyde Park
I've lived in Twin Towers for my 1L and 2L year. It's right next door to Regents but less expensive and has a better management team. I've never had an issue receiving packages because everything is delivered to a locker system or (if oversized) locked in a secure package room. There are resident events once or twice a month (usually free food or drinks, like muffins, donuts, margaritas, wine tasting) as well as a 24/7 front desk, onsite gym, community grills, and pretty reliable communal laundry machines (about $3 per wash/dry load). I also really like their system for having guests over (it's all done through an app). 172 bus, Regents express bus, and metra are all very close. Maintenance has been responsive as well, although it is an old building so I've had more issues with minor leaks/plumbing issues than other friends have had - but it generally hasn't been disruptive to my life. Old building also means you either have heat or AC, not both at the same time, so there can be some sweaty/cold days when the seasons change (but most HP buildings will have that problem). The apartments are smaller than Regents/Shoreland with less updated appliances and Twin's kitchens are small (no dishwasher or microwave), but I feel like I have all the space I need and have been comfortable -- and I have a decent amount of furniture. I looked at 20+ buildings when I was considering where to live in Hyde Park and have been happy with Twin Towers. For the price and amenities, I don't think you can get any better.

Clean and Basic
This building is incredibly clean with great management, close to the 172 and the 6 going downtown. Much better value than Regents with apartments being continually updated.

Great experience
Management is amazing and so responsive. The appliances aren’t the best, and the walls are thin, but very minor inconveniences. Besides that, rent is affordable in a good area close to 53rd and Regents

Affordable apartment with good management
Great location with easy access to the 172 and 6 buses. The building is slowly updating all units. My unit is not yet updated, so the kitchen, bathroom, and carpet need updating, but the rent is very affordable and the maintenance team is great. I like that the building has a (basic) gym and secure lockers for packages.

Twin Towers Review
Great value for Hyde Park high-rise apartments: mini-gym inside, relatively spacious, hardwood floors, nice bathroom. Only downsides are stoves are electric and not gas, and there is no dishwasher.

Excellent management, great location
The management at Twin Towers is excellent and quick to respond to maintenance requests. The building is slightly old, but also very welcoming, close to the lake, and right on the bus line that takes you to the law school (and there's another bus that goes downtown). The fitness center is very nice and there is central air conditioning.
The biggest downside is that the only nearby grocery store is Whole Foods, but that is true of most of Hyde Park right now.
