    Superb building with great amenities. The administration is very responsive to requests. This was my favorite place to live in Chicago.

    We chose this building in part because of the advertised amenities, but our experience with them…read morehas been consistently disappointing, as has the level of responsiveness from the management office. * Sauna: To our knowledge, the sauna has been out of service since we moved in. It was working when we toured, but we have not seen it operational at any point since becoming residents. * Hot tub cleanliness: On February 28, 2026, when we turned on the hot tub jets, a grimy black film resembling dirt began accumulating in the water. I took photos that night (see attached). This raised serious concerns about maintenance and cleanliness. * Swimming lessons representation and lack of response: During our tour in November 2025, a leasing staff member told us that free swimming lessons were offered to renters, and we confirmed this multiple times because it mattered to us. After moving in, an onsite swimming instructor told us that, to his understanding, there are no free lessons. When we mentioned we had been told the lessons were free and asked whether he had heard similar questions from other residents, he told us yes. We emailed management on February 19, 2026 asking how to enroll or to clarify whether free lessons are offered, and as of March 1, 2026, we have not received any response. In other replies to reviews that complained about amenities, the rental office has said the hotel manages the amenities. But these amenities are still advertised as part of the residential experience, and from a resident perspective the distinction doesn't change the outcome--we relied on what was represented when deciding where to live. If these issues are resolved or clarified, I will update this review. For now, prospective residents should independently verify the current status and availability of any amenities that are important to them.

The amenities are…read morephenomenal the deck the pool the cabanas the grills they have everything a sauna a steam room literally whatever you think they have they probably do. And it's in the best possible location. My overall experience touring here was a 10/10 thank you Kacy for explaining everything to me and being transparent about fees etc you were amazing so many good laughs and it was genuinely fun touring with you. I definitely recommend moving in here I'm praying that I'll be able to move-in because it's such a great community and location so fingers crossed I get this job and can move into that 1 bedroom you showed me!

The building is conveniently located to everywhere I need to be, the amenities are top notch, the hospitality of the door staff and the office team are exceptional, my friends, who are 5 and 6 year residents, absolutely love everything about living at the Gallery on Wells.

She brings such positive energy and professionalism that instantly set the tone for a great living experience. She's also just fun to talk to, carries a welcoming attitude, quick follow-ups, and deep knowledge of the building made the leasing process smooth and enjoyable. Beyond just the leasing experience, the building itself is a gem. The location is unbeatable -- close to everything, yet just far enough removed to feel like a peaceful retreat in the city. And the views are absolutely stunning, whether it's sunrise, sunset, the unobstructed views of the city skyline never get old Serena is always upbeat, helpful, and genuinely passionate about creating a great experience for residents. She sets a high standard, not just for leasing agents, but for customer service in general. If you're thinking about moving here, know that you'll be in excellent hands -- and that you're choosing a place that offers both luxury living and a fantastic team behind the scenes. Thank you, Serena, for making this building feel like home from the very beginning!

    This is my first time living in a "professionally" managed building. From my experience here, I…read morewould never pay for something like this again. My fiance and I have had issues since day 1. To name a few: -The Resident lounge is actually an employee lounge throughout the day as that is the only space the employees have to go to. -The grills have been broken since day 1. You have to bring down your own lighter, pick up the metal grates with your hands, and then light it to actually get it to work. -Once snow started in Chicago, the management team would not have the snow removed from common spaces making the grills, etc. inaccessible. -The key FOBs don't actually give you access to anything. I don't even know why they give them to all the residents when they don't work to get you into any of the common spaces. -They will randomly do renovations on a floor without providing any of the surrounding apartments a notice. This is very frustrating especially during a GLOBAL PANDEMIC when everyone is working from home. When you speak to the management team about these issues, they make you feel like you are the only one with problems and that everything is great about the building. That is not true as I have spoken to several residents who are frustrated with all the same issues. This experience has made me think twice about paying to live in a managed high rise building.

The building/leasing staff is extremely friendly and always available. If there is an issue with the apartment, they have onsite maintenance staff and get things fixed asap. The building has amazing amenities including: on site gym, pool, resident lounge, library, etc. If you have a car, they have an amazing ON SITE garage that leads up to the main lobby. Highly recommended!

I…read morehave lived in multiple high-rises over the last 7 years and this building doesn't even come close to the amazing places I've lived in yet paying by FAR the most here for half of the great things about the other buildings. This is the only building on the planet with no freight/move-in elevators so they take the other elevator completely out of commission giving ONE elevator to 18 busy floors of 20ish units. I've waited 10+ minutes just to get in the elevator and have been late for work on multiple occasions because they give the elevator to people moving in during PEAK hours. To add insult to injury, the cold/unkind and totally apathetic leasing office takes the elevator ONE FLOOR UP AND DOWN instead of using the stairs. All the residents constantly look at each other in disbelief every time it happens. They never say hi to anyone and inconvenience residents on a daily basis. Resident Events are nonexistent and when they do, they're either BYOB (seriously?) cold cheap pizza or 1 seltzer. Gee, thanks! I really feel the appreciation and value of my $2908/mo for one small bedroom. Last but not least, between the drunk people fighting leaving LIQR Box next door and the addiction clinics lining the street - this is a pocket of River North that is totally unsafe. There are ALWAYS issues out front and was even accosted by someone mentally aill walking to my car out front one day. I called Neha in the leasing office (also the biggest culprit of riding the elevator one floor up and down) to help me get the garage open to run in. It was laughable how little she cared, zero sense of urgency and didn't even ask if I was okay or follow up with me. Why hire people who clearly don't give a flying f about residents or their jobs? What's the point? Skip the overpriced bedrooms, unfriendly leasing office, lack of any resident appreciation and concern for you as a human being and go literally anywhere else. There are a ton of beautiful and amazing buildings I wish I lived in instead of Niche. Their only saving grace is the amazing front desk staff (Sherrice and Durandt) and maintenance team which has kept me here. I wish I never lived here, the office team here is TERRIBLE and the only apartment I've ever regretted signing a lease with. RUN! Picture below of comical free cocktails they were giving out (one sip sized!)

    We have just moved in and have had some good experience so far. The place is exactly what we've…read morebeen looking for in terms of location - downtown with lots of cafes and shops nearby and a short distance to the riverwalk and lakefront. The staff is very nice, the maintenance team is very quick - we had one issue and it was easily fixed on the same day. The apartment has nice renovated interior, and it's quiet here. I work from home, and I do not hear any noise except for maybe some trains and traffic outside - but that's pretty much everywhere the same if you live in a big city. They do not have the best bike storage here- it's a tiny room with only a couple of shelves (for such a big building), not super convenient to "park" your bike there, and the spots are not assigned to residents. This was not on our priority list anyway when we were looking for the place, and we have only one bike per family, so that's OK. In general the impression has been good so far, we like it here.

We stumbled on 215 W walking around Chicago after an apartment walk-through fell through and are so grateful. April's positive and accommodating attitude made the whole process seamless from start to finish. When we first moved in, we put in maintenance requests for very minor issue and the Team fixed the issue the same day. The building is kept clean and very well maintained. My only complaint -- and this is due to location, not the building or its staff -- is that the L is pretty loud, especially during rush hour. However, overall, would definitely recommend this building to anyone looking to live in the city of Chicago.

This building and its halls are kept spotless! Whenever I call maintenance they are always prompt and they get the job done. I am extremely picky about where I choose to live and the Streeter does not disappoint. I especially enjoy dealing with Noah who is always helpful, patient and friendly! The amenities are plentiful. The jacuzzi's are maintained and kept clean. Other buildings have failed in their attempt to keep their jacuzzi clean. Sauna and steam rooms are immaculate! They have a swimming pool adjacent to the jacuzzi. They have an awesome gym too! Close proximity to everything! Unbeatable!!! The Amazon package room is run well and they haven't lost a package yet. This is impressive and difficult to achieve. Elevators run smoothly and I never have to wait. The building really demonstrates how they care about their tenants and they take pride in their jobs and it shows. I have given them a five star rating because they earned it and they deserve to be praised for their work ethic and dedication to their tenants and the community. I highly recommend the Streeter. I cannot say enough good things about them! The Streeter is welcoming and I encourage everyone who wants a good quality of life and a clean environment to move to the Streeter. I stress to you all that this is the only place where I felt comfortable and at home. Highly satisfied.
