Charming Community + 5 Star Management
March 16, 2021The Block community offers a unique boutique experience. From our initial communications through move-in living here has been amazing. The apartment itself has incredible finishes and the management is 5 star. I appreciate the personal touch, it certainly doesn’t feel like any other apartment I’ve lived in. Thank you to Mike, Vicky, Lynn and Mowgli for all you do!Review from Apartments.com
