I was a tenet of a 1 bedroom/1 bathroom apartment at The Press for three years from 2019 to 2022. I had an excellent experience throughout my time there. The buildings location, 2 miles from Purdue's chemistry buildings, made my bike commute as a graduate student ideal (not too long, not too short). I never had an issue with any of the apartment's lights, appliances, or plumbing. The buildings walls are not soundproof but they are fairly thick. Plus the respectful tenets of the building were peaceful and clean. If you can can grab one of these, in high demand, apartments, then I suggest you do so. I recommend them without reservation.

I am a current tenant at the Press, and I cannot say enough good things about this apartment complex! I love the historical feel of the building and how it still has some of the “old” feel but with a modern touch. The staff are so great, and the building is always clean. Walking distance to everything in downtown…we won’t be moving anytime soon :)
