How we get these numbers
Gathered: every figure on this page comes from IQ Realtors's own rental database of real, currently listed homes in professionally managed Chicago buildings — the same verified data behind our search.
Verified: rents, availability and move-in specials are checked against each building's official leasing sources. Fees are published only where a verified fee sheet is on file — and where one is not, the page says so instead of guessing.
Fresh: this page was generated November 13, 2026 from that data, and pages are rebuilt as the underlying rents and specials change — the generation date is the freshness stamp.
Eva and Tapestry Station are both professionally managed buildings in Evanston — two towers a renter here is most likely to cross-shop. This is the side-by-side, from IQ Realtors's verified rental data.
