That McDonald's seems like it's the ONLY place close to BBTB. That's cool with me because all i eat from there now anyways is a grilled chicken Cesar salad and a Caramel frappe. As for supermarkets, and pharmacies...I know the Rite Aid by my grandmother isn't too far...but neither is it too close. You pretty much have to take a 15 min walk to get to your essentials period. I swear, this is gonna make my head explode. Plus, I wanna know if the space below is gonna become retail.

I had to sneak off to check this forum. Deli you are a hot mess. Lol!! Moneboo..... I'm pissed that you didn't get the letter from burnside earlier that way you wouldve started the process already before the lease signing with BBTB. That way you couldve done a comparison and made the best choice for you. But like I keep saying.... Go today and before you sign your John hancock on anything make sure you have definitive answers to everything. What I don't like about the apts is that they are so small but I think it I'd a great starter apt for you Moneboo. Your single with no kids so you can make the space work for you. Go to jennifers convertibles. Their furniture is made for apts with limited space and it's very affordable and not flimsy looking. But I do hope they continue to build up over there to compliment the development or at least a decent supermarket. Good thing BBTB will have laundry room because where would you go to wash your clothes?

Steph! Thats what I was saying! I have sooooooooo much things with me now so the extra month and a half would be good for me to downsize. I dunno man...this thing is really stressful. Plus, I don't want to not sign for BBTB and then realize I hate Burnside and then miss out on something. My head literally hurts guys.

Good morning everyone, another day of fighting for me... Deli, is interesting all these stories about the inside people pulling favors... I wonder who is collecting the bribe money and which porter I have to sleep with.... I'm kidding.... I'm just trying to keep my cool, laugh a little not to get to the point where I'm going to go back to bruckner and spazz the f*** out....

guys you have to see the apts in person... I mean the youtube shows pretty much what they look like but I think it's a descent start... from my perspective I'm ok with it IF I GET A DAM APARTMENT I GAVE MY DEPOSIT FOR IN JUNE!!!!!!, for me is different I'm 24, no kids, full-time worker, still a college student so is a good start for me if I EVEN GET TO START THERE...

who is going over there today and what time?

moneboo, burnside is not the best neighborhood in my opinion.... one of the apartments BBTB sent me to go see was on macombs rd like 5 mins from where I work but the neighborhood is just as horrible so I didn't want it... outweight your pros and cons...

hotblue, are you going to ur interview or what ?

moneboo, take it easy... at least you have options and at least you have a lease signing appointment and if you pick from the 5th floor and down you can move in right away.... look at me, I have nothing right now...

Hello!! Just wake up!! Couldn't sleep at all! I guess BBTB is turning into the Elm street horror! Lol..
Listen I saw the units. Studios and 1 bedroom apt. Studios are kind of big, but 1 bedroom is the same studio with a extra room. Hey they did this building to fit small people , joking!! I only had 2 interviews for two buildings I requested since January to all places and not receive answers, about burnside it's no that bad , you have everything around. Worst is where we are applying. If you come walking from the police station you will see what I'm talking about !!
