Canal Street Flats Apartamentos

When I first moved into Canal Street Flats, the affordable rent was a major factor in my decision to live here. The recent renovations and increased fees have made the rent skyrocket, leaving me to question whether it would have been better to spend a little more and live in a better building in or near downtown. I have quickly realized that the price is not worth the numerous problems and difficulties that have arisen since the change in management.

While the renovated apartments are certainly... visually appealing, the building itself is old, and things seem to be constantly breaking down, especially if you don't have a renovated unit. Additionally, the change in management has brought a significant decrease in vehicle security, with multiple break-ins reported in the parking lot. The lax security measures have also allowed individuals to smoke marijuana in the stairways, leaving a potent and unpleasant odor throughout the building, especially for those living near the stairways. This is particularly dangerous for those who have kids or pets in the building, as people leave their ashes and leftover roaches in the stairways.

To make matters worse, the rent has gone up significantly due to the renovations, and more fees are now included in the monthly rent. And if you're not a heavy sleeper and manage to get an apartment with a nice view, be prepared to be jolted awake by the incredibly loud train that runs through downtown in the early hours of the morning.

Overall, I would not recommend Canal Street Flats to anyone looking for a safe and comfortable living experience. The higher price is not justifying staying here, and it might as well be spent on a better building in downtown or commuting a little farther for the same price. While the new management may be trying their best, they have a long way to go to make this building a livable space for its residents. Lee mas

Within the last year this property has become horrible. The hallways are hardly ever cleaned. There is always trash in them or stained. The elevators are always down and also very dirty. It is very rare when we are notified, one elevator had been down for 3 days and we get a text message 3 days later. It is extremely hard to get ahold of someone in the office, very hard. Example new years weekend all 4 elevators were down from Friday-Sunday. I feel horrible for anyone in wheelchairs or any other... issues, and we received no communication into the second day. The office staff seems to not care. Cars are always getting broke into. Towing is not enforced so random cars from people around the area park there. Cars are also free to park anywhere since towing is not enforced. I have lived here for 5 years and have never experienced or seen the filth I have within the last year and a half. Before when you would get off the elevators and you could smell the cleanness from where the hallways were cleaned and the elevators were never in this bad shaped. Yes it was not perfect you had your random trash bags in the stair ways and elevators would go down but the communication and them showing concerned was there. I a survey was made believe me the responses would not be good. I truly hope things change, there is residents that have been here for the same time I have and they have the same issues. I know you probably think "well move out" it is not that easy. Lee mas

Currently there's two cars in the parking garage that were left on bricks, all their tires/wheels stolen. My car was broken into during the freeze. The units are nice but that doesn't make up for anything. The gate hasn't worked since the freeze and it's been 6 months. Call the leasing office and all you get is a "it should be fixed tomorrow". It was supposed to be fixed weeks ago according to them.
