The endless construction is absurd, the fact that last summer my windows were forcibly taped shut to paint while my apt hit 85 degrees inside is borderline illegal and I wouldn't want my worst enemies to have to live here and experience the same

I moved in recently and have been thoroughly impressed. The neighborhood is beautiful and the building is very well-maintained. The staff is the real standout here—the leasing office is genuinely helpful and accommodating, and the maintenance team responds to requests incredibly quickly. It also feels very secure.

The only heads-up for new residents is that all packages are delivered to a central mailroom, not directly to your apartment door. It’s not a major issue, but something to be aware of...
if you shop online frequently. Also, there isn't any guest parking!

Overall, it's a fantastic place to live and I'm very happy with my decision!

No complaints! :)

Been here since November 23, New manager and already I can tell Allynne is really making a difference and having a positive impact in our community with the newsletter, asking for our suggestions, key lock updates along with a high level of communication. I didn’t have complaints before her, but I can still tell a difference in what she is bringing to the community. I really appreciate that. I feel safe and all staff are stellar in my opinion.

Safety concerns (by tenants, not Urbana)

Weeks and weeks of countless false fire alarms being pulled by homeless people resulting in 6-8 minutes of piercing one note alarms. Urbana offered ear plugs. Mix that with elevator failures (elevator dropping and people getting stuck requiring fire department) AND stairwell failures (failures with stairwell system that allow you in and out of the stairwell) on the same days as 2-3 fire alarms are going off. Response from Urbana, "No negligence on our part." They do not care about your safety.... They definitely do not care about your comfort. They care about locking in your money.
