COVID-19:
EMME's Commitment

The health and well-being of our residents, visitors and the entire Chicago community is our top priority. We are closely monitoring the impacts of COVID-19, and are dedicated to providing support and resources that promote a healthy environment for everyone. We have implemented new procedures and tools, and are following the guidance and recommendations by the CDC, Illinois Department of Public Health and City of Chicago.

Latest Updates

The City recently released its Reopening Chicago Plan, with information on how and when different industries can reopen. In accordance with this plan, all residents and visitors must practice social distancing and wear a mask in public spaces.

Scheduling Tours & Virtual leasing

Our leasing office is now open and we are scheduling standard tours with a leasing agent, self-guided tours, and virtual tours to prospective residents. However, we have made the following adjustments to our in-person tour procedures:
