Reviews from the web

Showing 8 highest rated

I applied to Gridline Apartments back in July 2023 and David, the property manager, was amazing in helping me throughout the entire process. Despite the delay in construction since the building is brand-new, David maintained timely communication and updates surrounding my MFTE application. Once hearing back that everything was cleared to move-in, Rusty, leasing manager, was great in answering all my questions. The leasing office is extremely helpful and considerate of its residents. The surrounding area is nice with many trees and not too noisy despite being in Capitol Hill; there are a couple grocery stores nearby too. Can't wait to see the new building!

I toured more than 20 places but chose to make the Gridline my home because of Chet Patterson. He is the current property manager and he is the most helpful person in the whole world! The property is brand new, very clean, the amenities are great, the management is friendly, and they make you really enjoy living there. Chet is professional and helpful and he goes the extra mile to make things easy for everyone.
