My husband and I have been living in Evanston Place for the past 5 months. I'm a grad student at Northwestern, he's a working professional. We enjoy the location but have had numerous issues with management and maintenance which make it hard to really appreciate the place. The rent is too high for what you get, so if you can afford better options then I'd recommend reconsidering living here.

Additionally (not building fault) there's no garage enclosure meaning that today many people woke up to broken car windows and rummaged belongings - luckily nothing valuable taken but still cost $250 due to more ... hide ...
