Excellent management team. Repairs done quickly, responds to concerns

Beats area prices by several hundred dollars for the footage 2 bed 2 bath utilities moderate cost. Solid structure in and out. Heating and cooling out dated grossly inefficient in comparison to the area. Premiere view like Newyork with the ceiling to floor view. Been here since 22’ not moving unless gentrified out.

DONT MOVE HERE

Do not move here! The people in the leasing office do not care about residents. My car broken into along with several other resident cars and they do not care. They take zero action. Whenever I have guests their car has been broken into as well. The leasing staff is very rude and careless. Snobby if you will. Unless you want your car window busted or your car stolen do not move here!

THEY DONT CARE ABOUT THEIR RESIDENTS

15Dec2022 update....nothing has changed. I feel like a moron living here as long as I have. The property was having work done and cut the internet lines to apartments ending in a 7 or 8 in the east building....it's now been over 3 days without any internet and the leasing office does not have a ETA!!!

This along with the fact that they've allowed 1 of the 2 treadmills for the entire building to be broken for A YEAR is proof they don't care!!! I stopped in a couple months back and begged them to… fix is before the winter because if the one good treadmill is in use, the alternative to waiting is to walk across to other building in the freezing cold.

Oh, they also overcharged me rent for Dec 2022...two weeks later and still no reimbursement.

Only good thing is the maintenance staff.

Anywhere but here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Applied & paid the most expensive application fees I’ve ever heard of. It took their staff 2-3 weeks to get back to me. $50 application fee plus $175 refundable application fee. I was denied who knows why cause I applied to 3 other places all approved based on me bringing in 4 times the rent. This was one of the least expensive places I applied to. Well then they tell me it can take 30 days to get my $175 refundable fee back. Well it been 30 days & all their incompetent staff can continue… telling me is the check is in the mail. I still haven’t received it. Do not give them your $ you may never see it back. This is bad business 101. I am now looking to higher entities to expose this place.

Avoid.

Where to begin,
I’ve had my bike stolen from the rack which is supposedly monitored.
I’ve had visitors cars broken into in the visitor lot, which is a hike from the west tower.
Much of the staff has been consistently disrespectful to myself as a tenant and my guests.
