Review

I love living at 640, it's close to everything you need and to the water/bike path. I like the quiet neighborhood feel, while still being near the city and main roads. No complaints!

Great Apartment!

I moved to Chicago from Evanston and found a great apartment at 640 Sheridan. Everything in my apartment is redone and I have hardwood floors, granite counters, and new cabinets. Maintenance is great and responds very quickly. In addition, some of the maintenance people live in the building. Laundry is in the building which is very nice. It's great here :)

Cool place

Apartment was pretty cool to live in. We only had a few problems when we initially lived there, but the landlord was quick to make any fixes. I would live here again if I had the chance. The units are pretty updated and the apartment was fairly quiet.

Overall, a pretty good first apartment!

I found my apartment through Groupfox leasing agent Ann Cort, who had helped friends of mine. She couldn't be nicer - showed me everything she had in and around my budget before I finally applied for the one I wanted. It's a very spacious studio, hardwood floors, recently renovated bathroom, and a lobby area currently being revamped. It's also super-close to multiple buses and the Red Line, as well as walkable to Wrigleyville and Boystown bars. In the year I've lived here, management is usually quick to respond regarding maintenance issues, questions I have, and any building notices. I've definitely had some maintenance problems here and there - an A/C issue that required a new unit, a bathroom leak, power outages, etc. Nothing too uncommon, and all fixed fairly quickly. I did learn fast that maintenance had a habit of leaving my door unlocked when they came to do a repair and I wasn't home, so I now make sure someone is home during all repairs. Additionally, things tend to happen without notice - our elevator was down for over a week last fall and four days this spring to order new parts, and we weren't informed until it was already down. We've also had two multiple-day power outages because of poor communication between the management and ComEd, though the building manager did bring pizza, soda, and flashlights to the building for us as a kind gesture. I like my apartment, I have minimal issue with management, and for my first solo apartment, I'm very happy. Would recommend!

Would not rent from Group Fox

I have lived here since December and have had many problems with the apartment and the management. First, I have had many problems with the kitchen sink clogging and even flooding my kitchen one weekend while I was out of town .The management continued to tell me it was someone putting stuff down the drain but now they admitted it was their issue and fixed it. They would not reimburse me for the ruined items. The management company is terrible and would not recommend renting from them. Our property managers were non responsive and wouldn't help alleviate any problems until I reached out to the CEO.
