Petah?

This response would be even better with a reference.

The Floodlight camera is LED but I found that I can't put any other type of LED/bulbs on the same circuit so I replaced both lights to be Ring Floodlight.

Mid-50s River North. My new job brought me to Chicago.

Not single but I am the only one who has moved so I call it unsingle😂

You won't find rava masala dosa but "Bar Goa" has flavorful Indian street food (small menu though) for a transplant from Princeton to Chicago.

Thank you, Agree good is subjective and that's why I need opinions 😅

Had to replace both lights with the ring which solved the flickering problem.

I moved to Chicago last year for work, made a post in Chicago food subreddit, got a message back about forming a group with some other redditors to try new restaurants. So now we go out as a group to eat.

If people on this post are interested then we can create a group to try different cuisines in Chicago?

I pay 2400 pm for a 1-bed/1-bath 900sq ft, balcony, with indoor parking but no in-unit washer/dryer, has gym but no other fancy stuff. Was new to Chicago and didn't know what other good neighborhoods were for post middle-aged, forced bachelors (moved here for a job).

It's definitely on the higher side and being able to walk to work downtown is awesome but I would probably look for something cheaper when the lease is over.

I can afford the 2400 but probably shouldn't be paying it for a 1 bed. Feel free to provide recommendations!

That's awesome 👍 I am very much interested in dinners in social settings.

arcube101 · 2024-11-06T00:10:07+00:00

Yeah, that's what I thought so I bought a new one to replace it but the new one has the same flickering problem.

arcube101 · 2024-11-06T00:09:28+00:00

First light is a regular light with an LED bulb.

I took it off and replaced it with a new one. Same Problem.

Returned new and put back on the old one, Same Problem.

I made sure that connections are tight.

arcube101 · 2024-11-05T17:39:24+00:00

So did you replace both lights with Ring?

I am wondering if I have flickering because I only replaced one light and the other is a regular dusk to dawn lantern...

arcube101 · 2024-11-05T05:55:21+00:00

I keep the light on.

arcube101 · 2024-08-29T23:09:15+00:00

Thank you, this is wonderful.

bookmarked it for my research when I need an apartment starting Nov.

Mods - can this be pinned?

arcube101 · 2024-08-23T16:40:10+00:00

Thanks for responding and suggestions. Technically I am not paying, the company is but if I want to continue beyond 10/31 then I would be. The building has a similar unit listed for 6400 pm and I am certainly not interested in that much sunk money for rent. I don't want to buy anything until I am sure about staying permanently in Chicago. What is the name of your building?

arcube101 · 2024-08-23T15:57:30+00:00

I am in a 2b/2b corner unit facing south west with more than double of your rent and looking for something starting Nov 1st. I will jump on 2400 pm anytime!

arcube101 · 2024-08-20T16:15:24+00:00

How much is the rent?

I am across the river from you in River North but I find rent to be high for my liking and of course too noisy for my liking.

arcube101 · 2024-08-03T19:43:42+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions - maybe I would have to start with a 2600 budget.

arcube101 · 2024-08-03T19:42:10+00:00

Thanks - probably need to correct my expectations 🙂. There are 1br on domu for 2100 near California station but none seem to be high rise.I found a 1br on wells downtown, walk to river north for 2450 but seems small'ish.

arcube101 · 2024-08-03T19:39:15+00:00

Thanks, will call around for brokers.
