    Living at The Francis is fantastic. From the amenities to lovely staff, I wouldn’t want to rent anywhere else! The ease of living here, in Uptown where I can access a variety of things is one of the best parts.

    I LOVE living here so far and the concierge people have been top notch but everyone at the leasing office has been more incompetent than the next one.

    The Francis is the best apartment community in uptown! Great location and lots of variety to choose from in floorplans. Catherine at the concierge is so perfect for her position. She makes living here a delight. Tiara in the leasing office was exceptional. I love living here!
