Shoreline Towers

Clean modern reception area. The front desk staff was very nice. Secure with a great location and modern art in the lobby is a great touch.

I’ve lived here since 2006 and though the cost is a little high I really do love the building and the people that work there. Everyone from the doorman to the valet to the guy that changes my filters is as friendly as they come and it really does feel like a home to me. Highly recommend for students. It has everything you need: laundry, fitness center, doorman, rooftop, and great views. Perfect if you want to live in the city without actually having to live in the city :)
My only grip is that beautiful room on the roof that we use as storage. I would love to see it made into a fitness room or even party room we could rent out.
And the windows… I gutted my place but was told the windows would be changed all at once very soon (now 7 years ago). They let in a breeze from the lake and though I don’t mind it I think it would save the building a lot of money in the long run since they pay our heat/​air.

I have been a condo owner in Shoreline Towers since 2003 & as of 2013 still live there.
There have been many changes since I moved in.
Recent things to note …
²⁰¹¹⁄₂₀₁₂:
New board of directors (troubles with past board member
New building management.
In my opinion, the building is very well maintained & certainly not unattractive as another person commented. The hallways were renovated in ²⁰⁰⁴⁄₀₅. The laundry room was renovated around ²⁰⁰⁸⁄₀₉. The board strives to be proactive with upkeep on the mechanicals of the building (it’s a 50 year old building so inevitably there will be something needing repaired or replaced).
Building Amenities:
24 hour doorman
24 hour Exercise room
24 hour Laundry room (no in-​unit laundry but plenty of machines to do all your laundry at once)
Hospitality Room
Rooftop sundeck
Monthly parking (underground valet & surface self-​park)
Guest parking (valet)
Package receiving room & dry cleaning service
Bike storage
Cable & high-​speed internet in all units (included in assessment)
Two passenger & one service elevator in each tower (east & west towers)
While it’s not a cheap building to live in, you get a lot of amenities for your buck. You also can’t get any closer to the lake short of living on a boat.

I really enjoyed living here back in the day. I loved the valet parking and the rooftop. It was always great to watch the 4^th of July fireworks and weekly Navy Pier fireworks from my window or the roof. Also, Edgewater is a great neighboorhood– I felt very safe here.

These towers have a lot of students from Loyola renting places out. Despite the big student population, these towers are really well-​kept. The maintenance of this place is wonderful. It is a bit expensive (probably more so for the students!) but its a wonderul place to live. It has 24 hour security and the location of this building is great.
