This video was so helpful,I’ll be moving in here soon! How easy is it for packages to be delivered to the building?

[@Erin_OLaughlin]

Hey! I'm so glad it helped. It's super easy to have packages delivered -- there's an office where packages go, and you'll get an email when you have a package for pick-up!

This is great! How was your experience at the ARC? Did you or any friends ever feel unsafe? We walked the area last week and wanted to ask some people who have had first hand experience living in the area. Thank you 😊

[@Erin_OLaughlin]

I have enjoyed living at Arc! I feel safe living here (within reason). I am never out at night by myself, so I can’t speak to that, but the apartment has 24/7 security… I always feel safe within the apartment. There is an area across the street where there’s a constant group of people cat calling and stuff like that, but I feel safe enough that’d I’d recommend Arc for student housing to others!

Thank you

Hi! Is there designated parking available?

[@Erin_OLaughlin]

Hey! There’s not :( super easy to live downtown without a car though! None of my intern friends brought their cars; we just used the public transit! :)

hi i am going to move in to the Arc next semester and this apartment looks really nice! Do you have any recommendations for me to bring or buy?? Is Chicago dangerous to go out at night by myself? Btw thanks for the video I was looking for some real reviews about the Arc!

[@Erin_OLaughlin]

Hi! Definitely bring a Roku or hdmi cord for the TV, shower curtain (unless you have the room with its own bathroom), and other than the normal expected things, I can’t think of much else! It doesn’t come with a dining table if that affects what you pack. I feel safe in the Loop during the day to roam around by myself, but I personally wouldn’t risk it at night. I feel safe enough on the trains and walking at night as long as I have a friend or two with me Let me know if this doesn’t fully answer your questions, and I’m happy to give more details!!!

Hey I’m interning in Chicago this summer! When did you sign and how much do you pay a month, if you don’t mind me asking

[@Erin_OLaughlin]

Hi!! I think I signed in late December/early January. I’d recommend calling them when you fill out your application to ensure they put your application at the top of the list. And I think it was 379 a week! I paid for 11 weeks

[@linalinapaulinagarza]

I want to live here!
