Amongst Chicago's 33 awesome miles of beaches, North Avenue Beach is the supreme stop, between its running/biking trail, big beach house, international volleyball tournaments, including the AVP Chicago Open, and the annual Chicago Air & Water Show.
Just 2.4 miles upstream, 420 West Surf is a breath of fresh air in rehabbed apartments. If you're any sort of sun worshipper or even just a horizon spy, the rooftop sundeck on this place is awesome. "Pier" inside and you'll happen upon hardwood floors, roomy walk-in closets and kitchens with new appliances. Bonuses include free heat, natural gas, H2O, and amenities such as free internet & free DirecTV Choice Package Programming. Not to mention, the neighborhood has a tidal wave of things to do. Water you waiting for?
Come on, b the one to make a splash...
