Beautiful units. Great Location. Zero security.
It really sucks to say bad things about this place because overall it's been an enjoyable experience. For context, I've been here for over a year. Yes my car has been broken into but I attribute that less to the complex and more to living adjacent to Downtown. The location is great and maintenance has been very quick and attentive.
HOWEVER, safety is an absolute no here. The back
gate in building one has been broken since before I moved in and it hasn't been fixed yet. The call box in... Building 1 has been broken since before I moved in and it has not been fixed. Everyone for every building has the same gate entry code including delivery drivers. My Ring has caught several of the transit population trying to and sometimes successfully breaking into storage units. The latest incident prompted me to stay else where until the broken lock was fixed.
Also, for those reading reviews for context after a tour, the back of Building One shows the height of gentrification in Old East Dallas. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but I am saying they take great care of not showing that on the tour.
The new management stopped accepting packages when the package lockers were full and now packages are left on the ground outside. That decision has lead to an increase in package theft.
All of the cons combined is enough to not consider renewing my lease because it's simply not worth the peace of mind. I'm sure they'll find an unsuspecting soul to take the unit and they'll soon be presented with the same issues. Hoping that management would actual take some initiative to make the place better given the property value is raising in the area and new truly luxury apartments are being built within a few blocks.
