I moved into 601 bond about 1 month ago and the experience has exceeded my high expectations. I highly recommend this apartment if you are looking the higher end luxury finishes. The leasing staff is extremely responsive and attentive with any questions or concerns. Every encounter with the staff has been wonderful especially with Taylor and Alycia. They both are very insightful and always willing to help! The amenities are great and the location… you can’t beat it!!
