Reviews from the web

Showing 5 highest rated

This is a terrible place to live. Management knows that people are constantly breaking into the building to steal mail and open locks in the storage unit but aren’t taking any meaningful action beyond contracting a useless rent a cop security company that are barely available and don’t do anything besides stand around with their hands in the pockets. I can’t even get them to install some cheap flood lights to deter people from prying the door open after night. A few weeks ago a lady was in the stairwell screaming and banging against the wall. The way things are going, it’s a matter of time until one of the residents gets assaulted or this place burns down. If you decide to move here, keep a paper trail. I’m leaving two stars because there’s an elevator that’s only broken down once and a treadmill that turns on, even if the display is broken.

An absolute garbage dump of an apartment building. If I could give zero stars I would. I’ve had packages stolen from right in front of my door and nothing was done about it. There are no working cameras in the building. The “unhoused” are constantly leaving their trash and belongings right outside the front door and loitering and doing drugs right out front. The garbage removal has been non existent. The prices are ASTRONOMICAL. The staff are useless and never respond. I had my MAILBOX BROKEN INTO and no one is responding to me about it. DO NOT LIVE HERE. I repeat. DO NOT LIVE HERE! I can’t wait to move!
