Pretty Good
Great location. Recently renovated so the building lobby, amenities and apartment interiors, appliances etc. are good (the elevators are one exception). No "hidden issues" to flag. Management has been fine to work with. Rent is pretty high.

Just OK
Good enough building close to campus. Can’t control heat or air conditioning. No dish disposal.

Convenient Location
Park Evanston is one of the closest buildings to the hub, something you appreciate most on the coldest days. Units are relatively large for the price and renovated units have nice finishes. No in-unit washer/dryer in Studios or 1beds.

Beautiful View but an old building with issues
I love my apartment for the beautiful view and the giant windows. The complex also has a decent gym and is conveniently located next to Whole Foods. The master bedroom & closet are big, which is very nice.
However, it has many issues, unfortunately. It is not as nice as E2 or Albion, so it should not cost as much.
The package room does not work well - they never notify you if you have a package, so plan to track them yourself. It is an old building with renovations that look nice (ie newer appliances), but misses some important things. Most notably, there is no fan in the bathrooms, there is no garbage disposal, there are few ceiling fixtures (no ceiling fan / light in the living room or bedrooms, only a ceiling light in the kitchen), and the sink has square corners (where you cannot get them clean).
The temperature control is on an old system: no digital temperature display and the whole building switches from A/C to heat together, so hopefully you agree with the timing. In the winter, the leaking heat seems to come into my room even with the thermostat off, so I often end up opening my windows on occasion.
Since we have a two bedroom unit we have in-unit laundry (1 bedrooms don'e), but it was just put in an old closet which does not have ventilation, so it does not dry very well.

Great location and building amenities
This apartment building is great - it's in the middle of downtown (literally next door to Whole Foods), a 12 minute walk to campus, and near both Patterson Park and the lakefront which is good for my dog. There is a gorgeous rooftop deck with a pool and grills, a ton of common area space to study, and they even have a dog spa room where I can shower my dog. My apartment is recently renovated with new appliances, and if anything breaks, Maintenance comes within the day to inspect and fix, so they are really on top of things.
The only real downside to Park Evanston is the property managers - they are occasionally difficult to work with (slow to respond - it took them 3 months to send me my lease after verbal confirmation), and they try to bill you for any and all fees they possibly can. But if you're on top of things, it's easy to never have to speak to them again after move-in and to not get ensnared in the fees.

Great location
Good experience with management regarding questions/concerns. Great walking location to campus and pretty equidistant to other Kellogg-populated buildings. My unit has great views from the 19th floor with plenty of sunlight and southeast views. My unit was entirely upgraded before move-in (new appliances, new floor, new carpet, and recycled cabinets/counters.

Park Evanston - worth the location
Park Evanston is the best location with incredible views. One beds don't have laundry in-unit (1.5 and above do), but it has been worth it for us. The laundry in the building is always empty, clean, and easy to use. Our apartment is only 600 sq ft, but it's laid out very efficiently and feels bigger than some of the E2 units I've seen. The gym is also great and usually pretty quiet. Been a great experience thus far!

Nice Apartment
Very nice building with a decent sized gym. Management and maintenance are very responsive. Only downside is other residents get very upset if you are being loud.
