LOVE. Living. At. The Marc.
June 21, 2023LOVE. Living. At. The Marc. We have been living at the Marc for almost three years (and just renewed for a fourth!) and couldn't be happier here. Coming from a world of New York luxury high rises, our bar was set very high. We totally fell in love with the Marc. First off, the building's location can't be beat - just two blocks away from University Ave: you get all the action while having calm surroundings. Second, the apartments are great - spacious, well maintained and the balconies are ...incredible. We are on the west side and literally get amazing sunsets every night. It doesn't really matter that the building is several decades old - the apartments have been updated and Ruffino and the maintenance crew will take care of any issues. Third, amenities are terrific - pool, barbecues, gym (just renovated a few weeks ago!). Finally: the community. Hats off to Linda - master property manager - who has created an incredible community of people who want to hang out with each other! There are regular mixers at the Marc that are very well attended and our neighbors are genuinely nice and friendly people. All the above points make for a great place, but this brings it over the line as a one-in-a-million place. If you come meet Linda or Larissa to inquire about a unit and life at the Marc and if that wasn't enough to convince you, just say hi and ask around to any of the neighbors you meet up in the hallway. Everyone will be delighted to tell you how awesome it is to live here! Here's to many more great times at the Marc!Property Manager Responded
June 23, 2023Dear Valued Resident, Thank you so much for taking the time to provide your comments about your positive living experience at The Marc. My team & I all take a lot of pride in making our valued residents feel a sense of community at The Marc and a place you are proud to call home. Thank you again for taking the time to tell us about your experience in our community. Linda Nguyen Senior Community Director

Rat Damage
March 17, 2023A rat at The Marc destroyed many of my personal belongings. I lived on the 10th floor at The Marc and a rat chewed, urinated and deficated on my shoes, bedding, home decor, pillows, suitcases, bags and clothing. A pest control person was sent by the building and he assessed the damaged stating it was a rat and he set traps to catch the rat. The Marc management does not want to cover the cost of items destroyed. I tried to submit a claim to my renters insurance but they do not cover rodents as ...they stated it is preventable based upon building upkeep or it is negligence by the landlord. I am upset my things are destroyed, I can’t get reimbursed by The Marc management as well perplexed how a rat could get on the 10th floor.Property Manager Responded
November 3, 2023We sincerely apologize for the loss of your personal belongings. As mentioned in review responses on other platforms, we have discussed your concerns with upper management. Given that the items were stored on the balcony, we were unable to approve the compensation for the replacement cost. We apologize for any inconveniences this has caused you and please be assured, we have addressed any pest control issues you may have experienced. We hope to get the chance to improve your experience at The Marc going forward. If you'd like to discuss further, please do not hesitate to reach out to our management office at themarc.cd@fpimgt.com.
