Fifield Cos. Celebrates First Birthday of E2 Apartments in Downtown Evanston

One year after opening, Evanston's premier downtown luxury rental community is 96 percent occupied

Chicago-based Fifield Cos. recently celebrated the one-year anniversary of the opening of E2 Apartments, the developer’s 353-unit luxury rental community in downtown Evanston. The project team, residents, and community partners enjoyed small bites, a signature E2 cocktail and live entertainment at a private reception held April 7 on the property’s fourth-level amenity floor.

Currently 96 percent leased, E2 has elevated luxury rental living on the North Shore with its high-end finishes and variety of floor plans. The property, which opened in April 2015, comprises two buildings: a 16-story tower at 1881 Oak Ave. and a 14-story tower at 1890 Maple Ave. offering a mix of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. In addition to the tower residences, E2 has 12 rental townhomes – accessible via private entrances on Emerson Street – ranging in size from 1,750 to 1,875 square feet. All homes feature top-of-the-line finishes, including plank floors, oversized windows, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, high-end lighting and plumbing fixtures, and in-unit laundry.

The towers are connected by a four-story structure that includes three levels of parking and a full suite of amenities, including a full-size basketball court, state-of-the-art fitness center, lounge area, party room with demonstration kitchen, theater, business center with conference room, coffee bar and outdoor pool and spa with cabanas, grilling stations and dining areas.
