About the community
A pool-and-sundeck lakefront high-rise on the edge of Lakeview.
Lake Park Plaza is a 30-story condominium high-rise at 3930 N Pine Grove Avenue, in Lakeview at the northern edge near the Buena Park and Uptown border, steps from Lake Michigan and the Lakefront Trail. Built around 1968, the crescent-shaped tower is commonly cited as holding roughly 448 units of studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms, many with private balconies and city or lake views. It is a staffed, amenity-rich building with an outdoor pool and a large sundeck, and it offers one of the more attainable ways into full-service lakefront living on the north side, a couple of blocks from the Sheridan Red Line.

What it’s actually like to live here
Lake Park Plaza is built for people who want full-service, amenity-rich high-rise living on the lakefront without a luxury-tower price of entry. The building leans into its outdoor life: a pool and expansive sundeck, grills and fire pits, a sport court, a children's play area, and a dog run out front all sit steps from the Lakefront Trail and the beaches at Montrose. With 24-hour door staff, on-site management and maintenance, a fitness center, and a hospitality room, day-to-day living is convenient and social.
Location is a core strength. The Sheridan Red Line stop is a couple of blocks away for 24-hour transit, Lake Shore Drive is immediately east for drivers, and Wrigleyville, the Broadway and Halsted corridors, and Montrose Harbor are all close. It is a strong fit for commuters, first-time buyers stepping into lakefront living, downsizers who want amenities and services, and anyone who prioritizes walkability and the lake over square footage.
The honest tradeoffs are those of a large, older building. Lake Park Plaza dates to the late 1960s, so unit finishes vary widely by owner and some layouts are compact studios and one-bedrooms. Buildings of this vintage carry meaningful assessments and periodic capital projects, so read recent board minutes and the reserve and special-assessment history, confirm exactly what the assessment covers, and verify parking availability and terms. The setting is lively and transit-adjacent rather than quiet, so confirm the specifics that matter to you (assessment inclusions, parking, and the school assignment) before committing.
The questions buyers actually ask
Lake Park Plaza FAQ
The questions I get most from buyers shopping Lake Park Plaza. If yours isn't here, text 224-385-8779, same-day reply.
- What does the HOA actually cover?
- Monthly assessments at Lake Park Plaza vary by unit size and tier. In a full-service building of this type they typically cover items such as heat, water, the 24-hour door staff, building insurance, common-area maintenance, and the amenity package, though exactly what is included (for example cooking gas, electricity, cable and internet, and parking) should be confirmed per unit. Confirm the current amount, the full inclusion list, and any special assessments directly with management. Cook County property taxes are billed separately per unit.
- What's the typical closing timeline?
- 45 to 90 days from accepted offer to keys. Cash deals can close in two weeks. Conventional financing is usually closer to 90.
- Where exactly is Lake Park Plaza and what neighborhood is it in?
- It is at 3930 N Pine Grove Avenue in Lakeview, at the northern edge near the Buena Park and Uptown border, steps from Lake Michigan and the Lakefront Trail.
- When was the building built and how big is it?
- It was built around 1968 and stands about 30 stories, with some listing sources varying slightly on floor count. It is commonly cited as having roughly 448 units; confirm the exact figures with the association.
- What amenities does the building offer?
- An outdoor pool and large sundeck with grills, fire pits, a sport court, and a kids' play area, plus a fitness center, a hospitality room, on-site laundry, package lockers, on-site parking, a dog run, and 24-hour door staff. Confirm the current amenity list with the association.
- What do units cost and how is the market right now?
- Prices depend on floor, exposure, size, and renovation level, and the market shifts month to month. See the live Market snapshot on this page for current pricing and activity rather than a static number.
- How much are the monthly assessments and what do they cover?
- Assessments vary by unit and tier and typically cover items such as heat, water, door staff, insurance, common-area maintenance, and amenities. Confirm the current amount, the full inclusion list, and any special assessments directly with management, since coverage changes over time.
- What are property taxes like?
- Expect a Cook County effective rate broadly in the range of roughly 1.8 to 2.0 percent of market value, though condo rates and reassessments vary. Confirm the exact figure for a specific unit by PIN with the Cook County Assessor and Treasurer, and make sure the homeowner exemption is in place.

Your local agent
Joe knows Lake Park Plaza
Most agents will list anything. I focus on the places I actually know, and the things that move value here don't show up in the MLS write-up: which streets and buildings hold demand, what the HOA or assessments really cover, how the comps read once you account for condition and location, and where buyers consistently want to be.
When you're ready to tour or list, you want someone who has read the last 50 closed comps in this specific market, not a national average, and can tell you what they actually mean for your price. That's how I work. Text or call any time, and I'll give you a real take, not a brochure.
