Murray Hill
What it’s like to live in Murray Hill
Family serenity defines this enclave circling Kadish Park's wooded trails. Renters prize 1950s brick apartments with original hardwood floors but contend with sporadic hot water in buildings using original boilers. Limited late-night dining beyond corner delis.

Lake Michigan access dazzles renters with quick walks to South Shore Park's summer festivals. The hidden hassle? Ice dams damaging roofs during brutal winters. Limited off-street parking tests patience during Chill on the Hill concert series.
