We have been with The Point at Tech Center for 2 1/2 years now and have loved every bit of it! Maintenance is always a phone call away and Alex is quick to fix any issues. Jen and John have always been so much help to us. The dog park is a great plus too! I couldn’t recommend these apartments enough!
