The flamingo My experience with my apartment has been pretty nice. The apartment company is very accommodating. The apartment itself is very small and the parking is very difficult at times. Overall I like the area but bar louie customers can sometime be disruptive in summer, the apartment company needs to keep a doorman, which they have occasionally.

The location is great in summer! I found the apartment (studio) too small compared to others I had seen in the neighborhood. The apartment is very nice and the building looks superb. Having grown up in Hyde Park, living that close to the lake in winter can be brutal especially with the wind. The location is perfect for public transit and grocery shopping and schools are nearby.
