  • great new apartment

    June 7, 2023
    From the time I toured the property, I had a great experience. I interacted with Gene, Katie, Emily, Jacob, and Brandon. They were all very helpful and made my move easy. The location downtown is phenomenal and I have a great view from my apartment. Also, the building is state of the art.
