Skip it if you need a room or a pass. Lincoln Common's penthouse-level rooftop pools are for residents of its apartment towers, with skyline and Lake Michigan views.

The pool

Lincoln Common, in the Mid-North District at 2345 N Lincoln Ave, has a rooftop pool on the penthouse level of each tower. Views run across the skyline and Lake Michigan. The catch is access: residents only.

Our take

Lincoln Common is the only entry on our list for residents instead of hotel guests. Even the guests-only Viceroy lets a traveler in with a booking, and nothing here does. It belongs on the list as a pool to know about, not one to plan a stay around.

Shared rooftop amenities include a pool, hot tub and sun deck, and both towers have reservable penthouse sky lounges with entertainment kitchens. Visitors can't use any of it, and no day pass is published.

Good to know

  • One rooftop pool on each tower's penthouse level
  • Skyline and Lake Michigan views
  • Hot tub and sun deck on the roof

The catches

  • Residents only, no visitor access
  • No day pass or hotel booking published

Getting in

Residents of the apartment towers are the only people who can use the pools. No hotel booking or day pass is published.

The listing doesn't give pool hours, a season or age rules.

Before you go. This is residential, not a hotel stay. Check with the leasing office whether any visitor access exists.
