The Lawrence House
1020 W Lawrence Ave, Uptown, Chicago 60640
The Lawrence House is a restored 1928 building in Uptown that leans into its history, keeping the original skylight, terrazzo floors, and mosaic tiling around a fully restored pool inside its 6,000 square foot fitness center (yes, there's a boxing ring too). The rooftop lounge has real city views, and the open lobby doubles as a free coworking spot if you work from home. You've got Larry's right there for cocktails, First Sip Cafe an eight-minute walk for coffee, and the Patio steps from the door, with the lakefront a quick stroll away. The Lawrence Red Line stop is three minutes out, and Jewel-Osco handles the bigger grocery runs about sixteen minutes away.

Maintenance is quick and thorough! Thank you Jim for keeping my apartment running smoothly
Didn't end up leasing here but our tour (led by Lanee I believe) was great. She really sold us on the property but the availability just didn't work out for us.
Living here could be so much better if it weren’t for the more than lackluster cleaning routine/staff. …

Let me start by saying the Lawrence house is an absolutely beautiful building, nice amenities, etc. I really wanted to make this my apartment of choice, but unfortunately the lady that I spoke to on 5/14, completely changed my mind. I …
On 5/13/2026 at approximately 4:45 PM, I had a scheduled tour with leasing agent Lanee W. She greeted me promptly and was friendly at the outset. However, as the tour progressed, it became clear that her interpersonal approach created a …
I used to live in the Lawrence house the year of 2004 I tried to rent an apartment again in the year of 2024 Whoever is renting the apartment two people gave me the hardest time the hardest time so I had to move somewhere else before I …
