Cleaning in Uptown: the local picture
Uptown is a dense lakefront neighborhood known for its historic entertainment district around Lawrence and Broadway, its large stock of vintage apartment buildings, and the diverse restaurants and shops of Argyle Street. The rebuilt Lawrence and Argyle Red Line stations have brought new mixed-use and apartment development. Uptown has one of the highest concentrations of rental housing in the city, so property managers make up much of our work here.
Large apartment buildings and property managers
Many Uptown buildings are large vintage apartment buildings or courtyard complexes with dozens of units, shared laundry rooms, long hallways and busy entrances. Property managers need a dependable recurring janitorial program for common areas plus a crew that can turn vacant units quickly. We set weekly or multiple-times-a-week common-area schedules, keep a log of what was done, and turn units to a fixed checklist with photos, so you can lease faster and answer resident complaints with documentation.
Venues, restaurants and new mixed-use buildings
Uptown's music venues, theaters and bars need floors, restrooms and seating areas cleaned after late-night events. Restaurants along Argyle and Broadway need after-close cleaning of dining rooms and restrooms. New mixed-use buildings near the rebuilt Red Line stations need construction cleaning before opening and recurring janitorial after. We handle each on its own schedule, from post-event early-morning cleans to construction punch-list cleans.

How we work in Uptown
Event nights around Lawrence and Broadway affect parking and traffic, so we schedule around them. Many buildings have limited parking and permit-only side streets, so we plan crew parking ahead of time. For multi-building portfolios, we can set up one recurring schedule and one point of contact.
