Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Fabulous location. Elegant apartment and amenities. Great staff.

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Why may not reco: Price, volume of train noise even at higher floors, cost of monthly parking (on top of the pricey rent), extremely narrow parking spaces
Would: convenient location

Apartment Review from an Independent Evaluator

The community location was prime! A car would not be needed as a resident there. The layout was nice. The décor was amazing, and the amenities were great.

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

A lot of problems with appliances, elevators. It is not clean. Security is developing however still not enough to feel safe completely. I got lack of support in terms of finding sub leaser (I wanted to move our before my lease ends due to the problems I experienced). Facility manager said he would help however I didn't get anything from him for months.

I would recommend for the beauty, the location and the staff. It’s a solid building with some great character.
Unfortunately there is one thing I really dislike about living here. It’s the parking garage. The two way ramps are dangerous and people are zooming around all the time and it’s so easy to get into an accident. This is the worst garage I’ve ever had to use. Plus the spaces are so tight. So many times I’ve had to squeeze into my car because someone parks too close to me. I literally hate this garage. They should have built a level underground for residents and heated it. It’s a big miss.
Thank you for the great review! We are always striving to provide the best customer experience possible and Oak Park is a big part in that. Again, thank you for the kind words! :)

The experience was nice and I felt like I really did want to live at the community. I wish I would have gotten a last name or some information to take with me. She did give me marketing information however a brochure and card would always be nice.
Thank you for taking the time to provide us feedback. We are a paperless community and live availability and pricing is on our website at www.theemerson.com. Please feel free to reach out to the leasing office to receive any additional information on our apartments.

The community was brand new and well maintained. It was very impressive and a place that I would love to call home. It was impressive visually and physically and displayed an environment of comfort and high quality. The leasing professional did a great job during the tour and was very friendly and personable.
Thank you so much for the positive feedback! We are happy to hear you had a memorable tour with our leasing professional! Have a great rest of the week!

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Walls are thin. The dog directly above me barks all day. I'm not home all day which is good but when I am home, it barks.
