Warning!

If you move into these apartments just know you're moving in to the roaches' apartment-they own it. Bugs are TERRIBLE HERE. It says "heat" but these apartments are heated by the building who doesn't care about tenants freezing in winter. Neighbors smoke Marijuana and cigars and smell comes through the thin walls.. SO GLAD I MOVED OUT, I WON'T MISS IT!!!

Lake view

Nice view, thin walls, great parking and security at door (not always good, kind of nosy). Roaches are bad too. Okay place but too expensive. Laundry room always dirty also.

I love my apartment !!

I love my apartment ! The view is absolutely amazing and the square footage is beyond reasonable. The closets are like bedrooms and the layout is so stylish. Not only is my apartment amazing ,but the staff are like super heroes . They get things done so quickly , and they even tend to maintenance issues on the spot !!! After a long day at work , I can count on the Michigan Beach Apartments staff to make me laugh and when I finally go to my apartment, I can count on a warm hug of perfection. I... would not change this apartment for the world !!

Michigan Beach Apartments

My apartment is located within a 22 story building that sits on South Shore Drive at 7251. I have an apartment on the 17th floor; the northern view allows me to see the beach, Lake Michigan, and the skyline of downtown Chicago. There is round the clock security and building management personnel within the office daily.
