I feel like a VIP
Please pass along to [building engineer] Lubo and whoever else on staff assisted with the snow removal around the building, that they did an AWESOME job! I didn't think I'd be able to do laundry for a week, but the snow was gone from the back porch area by yesterday afternoon, as was the huge snowdrift in front of the front door! The sidewalk was shoveled and the ice was removed from it as well. I feel like a VIP walking up to my apartment, especially considering what the other buildings look like. Kudos to Lubo and the rest of the staff!
Apartment features include: a wonderful three-season Solarium located directly off of the Living Room (for spring/summer/fall “al fresco” dining or lounging!), a large formal Dining Room with a chandelier light fixture, an enormous eat-in Kitchen with a walk-in pantry, 10-foot high ceilings, varnished doors, mini-blinds, an old-fashioned roll-rim slipper tub (with a new shower setup) for long soaks after a hard day of work or play, and a huge walk-in closet. Loads of windows bathe the apartment in sunshine!
Just 4 blocks west of the friendly confines of Wrigley Field (home of the Chicago Cubs baseball team), this immaculately maintained building is also just around the corner from hot, happening Southport Avenue pubs, restaurants, coffeehouses and stores. Grab a terrific cup of coffee at the european-style Julius Meinl coffeehouse, take in a play at the Mercury Theater or see a great movie at the magnificent Music-Box movie theater, an ornate 1920s movie palace! Or just pull your bicycle out of your huge basement storage locker and ride to the beach, Lincoln Park or the many interesting nearby neighborhoods.
Without a doubt, your 1249-55 W. Waveland Avenue apartment will put you in the center of all the wonderful action in Wrigleyville, Lakeview and North Center neighborhoods!
