Optima Lakeview in Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood has begun pre-leasing

Optima Launches Pre-Leasing at Lakeview Rentals

Optima, Inc. has launched pre-leasing for its 198-unit Optima Lakeview luxury rental apartment building, which includes 14,000 square feet of street-level retail at 3478 N. Broadway in the North Side’s Lakeview neighborhood. First move-ins are scheduled for April. 

Designed by Optima CEO and founder David Hovey Sr., and built by Optima’s in-house construction team, Optima Lakeview offers one-, two- and three-bedroom floor plans with high-end finishes and smart home technology. Rents start at $2,400 per month. 

“Optima Lakeview is a true original for the area in that it offers the best of both worlds – the same Class A management service, innovative design and deep amenity package of our Optima Signature high-rise in downtown Chicago, but in a more intimately sized building within one of the city’s most beloved neighborhoods and just blocks away from historic Wrigley Field,” said David Hovey Jr., president, COO and principal architect of Optima.
