Jose was very kind in helping me out in my visit and assisted me in purchasing there amazing T-shirt's for my family. These were the 3 shirts that I bought to support that fire station wish they had more of the these shirts cause they are a hit in my opinion especially the River North style and my personal was Wile E Coyote I'm willing to purchase them again even if I'm already back home in Los Angeles. Jose can you make this happen cause I would love to still get more if possible. The way you see the pictures that's the order of the patch that's in the front of each T-shirts.

It was like an army in their full "gear" descending on the lobby and into the building. They were prepared and had it been worse, we would all have been saved! I also dealt with 4 paramedics (not sure if from this station particularly)- 2 treated me in lobby, 2 took me in an ambulance to local hospital. All were not only fast, quick workers and efficient but so kind and caring and helpful. I am so grateful. Count on this team for sure!

There's 1 main cop here who's vocabulary includes fuck, shit, smoke show, and boobie scratcher. Wanna know how I know? The cops are having locker room talk in the front lobby.

No wonder people hate CPD. I could find more professionalism from the inmates in the jail.

Forget anything else about the architecture or this structure and just focus on the historical…read moresignificance and that alone makes it worth a look. It's old enough to predate the Great Fire, making it one of the few structures to survive. The Chicago Water Tower is still here, kind of looking out of place among the skyscrapers and whatever. Along with the tower is the pump house. Sometimes there will be art galleries and you can get inside. As for the actual structure, it's also a piece of art. It certainly was built sturdy to make it this long. The tower is in the middle of the intersection of Chicago and Michigan, close to many other tourist attractions and the overpriced shopping. A small park also surrounds it. The pump house is across the street, which can't be forgotten about if looking at this historic structure so go take a look at it too. Also there's a popular mall next to here. They have souvenirs and that kind of stuff you can buy there. Going to just check out the outside of it is enough of a reason to look around here. It's also open at certain times for art galleries, or it used to be that is. This is close enough for certain people to walk to from Navy Pier, and just up the street from the shopping and whatever.

The water tower looks like a castle near all of the upscale shops on the magnificent mile. Happily…read moreI was able to go inside and see all of the pumps, it was fascinating. By the 1860s, Chicago's water supply was inadequate for its growing population. Near-shore lake water was too polluted to be used because of runoff from the Chicago River. In 1867, Chesbrough, an engineer designed a water supply tunnel system running nearly 2 miles offshore pumped back to shore through this pumping station. Boyington designed both the pumping works building & Water Tower that houses the standpipe. Both buildings were built in the Gothic Revival style with distinctive yellow Joliet limestone. The buildings look like something out of a fairy tale. The Chicago Water Tower was the most iconic structure that remained standing after the Great Fire of 1871. It was a rallying point for the city. It stood as a symbol for a city determined to rise from its own ashes. Sadly at 9 o'clock on a Friday morning homeless filled most of the benches panhandling with all of their belongings.

If you're visiting Chicago and don't know where to start re: exploring, the magnificent mile is…read morewhat you're looking for. It's a long street that runs straight through the heart of downtown Chicago and is near to most of the cool visitor spots and shopping areas. The starbucks roastery is here, and the navy pier and park with the cloud gate statue are very nearby. The free Chicago zoo is on the north end of the mile as well; you could walk if you're in really good shape/like a long walk from the south part of downtown by the river, or you can take the bus etc. The river walk intersection with the MM is very busy, there are restaurants, bars, and lots of foot traffic in this area. Overall it's really nice! Overall, if you're new to Chicago, you definitely have to come to the MM at least once, even if just to go to a couple specific spots.

But what I really wanted to see and I ran out of time on my last CHI trip, Crown Fountain. Such a unique attraction. Faces of locals I assume, interchanging and interacting with the water stream. So nice. Piece. It was fairly quiet over there. Just the sound of the water. It was relaxing. Sitting there, water splashing, kids playing in the water, talking, eating an icy. It was nice. I say if you do nothing in Chicago, the Fountain at magnificent mile. and the skydeck at Willis Tower, a must. I enjoyed this.

I live in a condo presently managed by TBG. I've lived here for 13 years and have been a Board…read moreMember for ten. Currently I serve as Vice President. For the past decade our building has had to make significant changes due to Life-Safety requirements mandated by the City of Chicago. This has been an extremely costly endeavor for our smaller high-rise building. During this time our condo has had three different management companies - each new one has cost us significant time and money. We've also earned a reputation for being difficult due to select board members/residents who allow their personal agenda(s) and opinions to interfere with the building's well-being as a whole. This resulted in two of the management companies quitting and leaving us in a lurch. Not good. Of the three new companies that we interviewed, TBG was the only one willing to work within our budget and undertake our building's requirements. This means working diligently with Directors, finding creative solutions regarding issues within a 100 year old building, and attending our monthly board meetings (legally they are not required to do this). It takes time for management companies to get to know their buildings. No management company is going to be a 100% perfect fit. Yes, TBG has dropped the ball on some of our smaller issues, but they've been here for the big ones and kept us from bankruptcy. They are here to help us make informed decisions that work within the parameters of our building's need. Thank you Larry & TBG.

At one building the lack of any management meant maintenance didnt get done, they didnt know they had to maintain a buildin? go figure. At another property the city updated the law about window cleaning, the cwindow cleaning company told us that it wasnt an issue for us but they wasted Money using lawyers to review the new law and also did nothing for a whole year. What a shit outfit. Note at one point the BBB had many reviews that were very similar to what people posted here but something fishy is going on and the BBB wiped out all the reviews including many me and neighbors had written. The BBB is not what it used to be. The one thing to know about management companies is that they rely on the fact that boards are volunteers and changing something like a management company takes a lot of effort, so they come in and they know they are set for years.
