Marine Forecast

Our Association is about 3 blocks from Lake Michigan. Many of our units enjoy beautiful lake views and in the summer many residents can view boats of all kinds taking advantage of Chicago's great harbor system. With accommodations for more than 5,000 boats, the Chicago Park District Harbors constitute the nation's largest municipal harbor system.
