    "Dog poop everywhere. Public housing doesn’t pick up after their dogs. Not allowed to have dogs in field without police being called. No dog parks near."

  • bryancsaclang
    "Great neighborhood just west of the Gold Coast and east of the Chicago riverwalk in the trendy, tech savvy River North area. Fabulous restaurants and night life are within walking distance or a quick ride-share trip away! "
  • Pstrieck

    "You are so close to downtown area. Also it like middle of the city to me. Easy to get the lake front and other places "
  • kirstin r.
    "West Towner since 2002. Ohio & Ashland since 2010. Know your neighbors. Park your car. Walk your dog. Easy transit to downtown. If we could just keep the values and rents reasonable it would stay the place I came to know and love."
  • Andy
    "Great location close to everything. Fantastic 1-acre private park along the river! Suburban feel right in the heart of the city."
  • Sandra Z.
    "Not too loud, not to quiet. Plenty of restaurants to walk to but doesn't have a bunch of loud drunk people walking by. Great bike lanes all around (Milwaukee and Elston). Easy access to Blue Line, #56 Bus and getting on the highway. Walk to west side of loop in 25 minutes. Residents are generally around 28 to 40 yrs so maybe a 34yr old average. "
