Lakeshore east, Lincoln park, lake view east, or elsewhere for a 29M guy who works at the AON building 3 days a week, not big into nightlife, likes greenery/the lake, and walkability

Agree. It's a 20-minute walk to Aon and has easy lake and transit access

Lakeshore east. No contest

like

That place is soulless

Lakeview and Lincoln Park can’t be beat for park and lake access. If you live close to the park in Lakeview, there are lots of express buses that take you downtown. Much better neighborhood feeling than lakeshore east

I would recommend Lake Shore East if you can find a decently priced apartment. A friend of mine works in the Aon Center and lives at 155 N Harbor Dr, and they love it. The area is already very beautiful, with charming green park spaces, easy access to the Lakefront Trail for running and cycling, and it’s somewhat secluded from heavy tourist traffic. On top of that, the lake views are amazing. Living there also saves a lot of time and money on commuting. And you will have easy uber drive to the nightlife in River North.
