It is a great community and we absolutely love living here. Neighbors are kind, helpful and respectful (of course every place has bad apples but overall I had a great experience). However, the real advantage of this community is having a superb management. Property manager Courtney, Eileen, and maintenance team (Juan and Tom) have been absolutely great since we moved in. All of them goes above and beyond to make sure your problem will be solved. I can feel they listen and care and I am pretty sure they can find solutions to all problems if they are not limited in the decision making. I understand sometimes problems remain unsolved because of the owners not because of the management. I would absolutely recommend this community if you are in doubt, plus it is a dog-friendly community and you will be surrounded by a lot of cute puppies!!

This is Yvonne. We moved in 2 months ago to a place we quickly got to call home. My husband toured Parkway with Chloe while we were still overseas and she has been so helpful from that very first day. She goes the extra mile to make sure we are comfortable and is just always so friendly to us and our children. The apartments are so modern, spacious and have a nice layout to them. The community is easily accessible, close to all that we need, always clean and very welcoming. I highly recommend this place!

We lived at Parkway for a year before moving to the west coast. Brian and the rest of his team do an excellent job managing the complex. It’s a great place to live with people who truly care about fostering a community. The apartments are well appointed and spacious. We particularly appreciated that our questions never went unanswered; Brian was always very responsive. If you’re considering Parkway, you’ve found a gem.

Had the pleasure of meeting Chloe on 3/20, as well as doing a virtual tour with Justin the week prior. They are both extremely knowledgeable about not only the complex itself, but the area surrounding it. They were very helpful in answering any questions I had and quickly emailed me with an update on my application the following day as promised. Honestly speaking, the entire process put me at ease as a Boston transplant - it takes a load off my back to know that I will have a place to stay and that the community in which I’m living in will be a comfortable one. Thank you Chloe and Justin! I look forward to my move in day. :)

This post is for Justin, the leasing manager! He was great from the moment we had an initial call to schedule a tour. This was by far the best tour we had during our apartment search. Justin was quite accommodating with our tour time on a Friday evening; he was personable, thorough, super helpful, and communicative throughout the process. Unfortunately, we didn't end up settling with Parkway due to specific requirements that were missing with what was available at the time, but the decision was tough since the community itself is perfect. Great location, beautiful amenities, quality apartments, and friendly lease office staff!

Several apartments visit on the same day. When I am at parkway. No appointment, but Di choose to show us around really quick and make us feel so welcomed. The apartment is awesome with new things and in unit laundry! So we decided to move here. The other lady, Chloe, she is so nice! She explained the contract detail and helped the renting process. The management team is much nicer than my previous one!

Chloe has been so amazing throughout the entire leasing process! My husband and I began our apartment search early and toured several properties before deciding on Parkway. Chloe was very accommodating and flexible and let us tour a couple of times before making our decision. She was very patient when giving us a tour as we saw multiple units until we found the one that was the best fit. We are very excited to move to Parkway in a few weeks! Thank you Chloe and the Parkway team for helping us find our new home!

I've enjoyed my experience living here! Amenities are top tier and are generally well maintained. The indoor garage is a huge plus for those with a car. Management is very attentive to resident concerns and actively mitigates any issues on the property. Guest parking can sometimes be difficult if you have a lot of guests, but this is rarely a deal breaker for me. I'm hoping to live here another year pending prices dont change much!
