I've been proud to call Oglesby Towers "home" since 1997 and find it even more wonderful with new staffing that seems dedicated to better maintenance and addressing tenant concerns. Additionally, the location is superb, lovely apartments with fantastic views, and friendly neighbors.

Nice. A little dirty in the common areas. The community is not that friendly.
