South Shore Apartment Living

Neighborhood Vibe
Apartments in South Shore can connect renters to a vibrant and diverse community. Corner bars are often abuzz with live blues or jazz music; the beach in South Shore is as tranquil as any spot along Lake Michigan (but usually far less crowded); the University of Chicago is just a couple miles to the north, so it’s a popular spot for both students and university professionals looking to rent an affordable apartment outside of Hyde Park.

Heart of the Neighborhood
Apartment renters will discover a world of recreation and cultural diversions in the South Shore Cultural Center. This sprawling recreation complex includes a golf course, banquet hall, tennis courts, a nature sanctuary, and a swimming beach. The main building’s Spanish-influenced architecture and coral pink facade make it an instantly recognizable landmark for renters in South Shore.

What We Love Most
Chicago skyline views from the neighborhood’s Rainbow Beach are a sight that every South Shore apartment renter should check out. Stunning vistas are part of the neighborhood’s charm.
