    The maintenance is very fast to respond and create a ticket. Our building is spacious. I absolutely love the bathrooms with the mini walk in closets. The pantry is to die for! As well as the laundry room! Management is very nice too, and I love how there’s activities that management creates, to make a bond for the community!

    The property and amenities are nice, but every time we re-sign the lease they raise the rent or add some new way to squeeze us for cash. There's a new $15/month fee that's essentially insurance BEYOND the require renter's insurance (although I don't think they can't legally call it that). The landlord used to pay for water/sewage, but now they add up all the water usage per building, divide it into each tenant's average water usage, and charge everyone for it. They added a ridiculous credit ...
    score reporting charge for a scam company that pretends to boost your credit score by reporting your rent payments, which ARE ALREADY REPORTED AND ALREADY AFFECT YOUR CREDIT SCORE ANYWAYS. And they do all of this instead of actually raising the rent to make it look like the apartments are a good value. TLDR, don't be fooled by whatever the listed rent is. It will be artificially inflated, and it will go up year-over-year.

    Really love this place. Everything is so nice. Moving in was hardly a chore with the elevators. I only live in one of many buildings, but it's very quiet. Coffee bar is the coolest thing I have seen. I just wish people who live here would be nicer to the garbage and recycle area. They treat it like trash, no pun intended.

    This place has changed so much this year with new management . It has gotten so expensive now making us pay for water and trash and charged for insurance although I already had renters insurance was a hassle to get it removed . They couldn’t find the old documents from when I first moved in so had to fill out again about my pet accusing me of not saying I had a pet previous because they couldn’t find the paperwork ! I love the apartments I just wish the prices would stop going up every year ...
    it’s already expensive enough !

    Apartment was pretty dirty when we moved in even after a “professional cleaning” which allowed us to not get to see the actual unit before moving in. The noise transmission through every wall is very poor resulting in hearing lots of noise from neighbors. Overall, the quality of the apartment is modern and has a lot of amenities in unit.

    Love the apartments but living in first building on site there isn't much close parking which is a downfall. Other than that the apartments are nice.
