The place to live if you want to live downtown.

The units are nice and fairly priced. Management is very responsive. One of Carbon 550’s biggest strengths is that it’s within walking distance to several major downtown employers and event spaces.

Love the building and the location

Right in the heart of downton, but it feels like a peaceful oasis. The unit has really high ceilings and great light, super nice finishes and a balcony. The heated garage is also huge for winter.

Really nice building and super helpful mgmt team

The property is clean, really well maintained, and the units have great high ceilings, bright windows, and balconies. Really nice vibe. The property manager was really helpful with my move-in logistics and has generally been really responsive if something comes up.
