  • Easy to deal with

    May 30, 2024
    Everyhing was fairly easy from start to finish. Laundry and bike onsite and bright, clean internet room for when working from home and wanting to get out of the room for a bit. Love having the attached dog park. Elevator is outdated, but haven't experienced issues with it so far.
    Review from Apartments.com
  • Not a Great Place

    January 11, 2022
    The elevator has not been inspected by the Dept of Buildings in years and breaks down constantly.

  • DON'T RENT FROM THIS COMPANY!

    May 20, 2021
    The associate I dealt with was extremely rude and liar. The quality of service they deliver is dreadful and their attitudes are disgusting! AVOID THIS PLACE AT ANY COST!
    Review from Apartments.com
  • I love it!

    October 13, 2015
    What can I say, it’s Lakeview and its dog friendly. Two very important things I needed in a place which Briar does and does well. They have this cute little dog park which is super convenient. They have a business center right next to the dog park where I can get free wifi as he runs around and plays with the other resident’s dogs. If you have a dog, love Lakeview, you should definitely check out 515, I love it!
