With scenic views of Lake Michigan and the dramatic Chicago skyline, at Brookdale Lake Shore you’ll have a luxury vacation-style community to help set the stage for your next great adventures. We’ll take care of cooking, cleaning and maintenance so you can do more of what you love in one of our country’s most exciting destination cities. With independent living and assisted living on the same campus, you can have the lifestyle you want plus care in assisted living if you need it.
From full-service dining to concierge service, you can spend your time doing what you want to do, not what you have to do. Do you want to join the book club or maybe the herb club? Or do you want to get in an early morning workout in our fitness center and then check out an art class in our art studio? You can do both. Start your morning with coffee in the cafe bistro and then join a drumming circle. It’s your choice. And with several studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom floor plan options, you’ll find just the right pet-friendly apartment home to fit your style. And for peace of mind, our staff is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to be alerted to an emergency.
