The Flamingo Apartments
5500 S Shore Dr, Hyde Park, Chicago 60637
The Flamingo is a historic East Hyde Park building right up against Lake Michigan, and it leans into that setting with an outdoor heated pool, a firepit lounge, a 24-hour gym, and a bocce court plus a Bark Park out back. The apartments keep some old-building charm with crown molding, hardwood, oversized windows, and walk-in closets, and the upper floors actually pull in real lake and city views. You're a few minutes from grabbing coffee at Belly Up, having a drink at The Cove Lounge, and walking out to 57th Street Beach and the lakefront. There's no CTA train stop in easy walking distance, but the Trader Joe's is about a 14-minute walk for groceries.

I spoke with a leasing agent about availability of a 2 bedroom that was showing available on their website. However, he told me that it wasn't available because it's still occupied and that I can pay to reserve it, but if the tenant doesn't …
Marcia was really helpful. The building was very nice.
