Outstanding staff

The concierges at the Poplar and Darien are absolutely the best! Always friendly, always helpful. The facilities are better than most 4 star resorts - excellent fitness rooms, lounges and terrace with rooftop swimming pools, grilling areas, splash pad and dog runs. It's evident that the property management wants to make this a great place to live and that's reflected in the care of the facilities and the great staff.

Don't expect your deposit back on time...poor management

After leaving our apartment intact back in 6/30/23 and leaving in this building for 2 years, we are been ghosted by the management to get our deposit back, we paid our rent in time and agreed to a higher deposit when signed our lease, its very disappointing to have no response from them now. And apparently we are not the only ones they havent paid their deposit back, look around! not worth the hassle...

We apologize for the delay in receiving your security deposit back. We have since hired a new property manager, Laura Perry, to address these issues and improve resident experience. If you still have not received your deposit please contact... lperry@postcre.com. We hope to get this resolved for you promptly.

Best,
Laura Perry

Problems at Poplar

Renters beware! 72hrs before my move, the building manager informed my boyfriend (via email not even a phone call) that the apartment will not be ready for another two weeks. She did not rectify and said to me “this is actually not my fault.” I’m so disappointed because something that should be exciting has turned sour. Hoping someone from corporate reaches out.

Poor Communication with Management

Great building to live in! Beautiful place to live! Great people! Don’t expect your security deposit back on time.. even if you do pay your rent on time each month. It’s a hassle when moving out.

Great Building Management Michelle

I lived at the Poplar over a year and they did have some turnover in management and hard to get continuity on policies every time there was a change. The new Manager now Michelle is great. She is very professional and gets things done for the tenants immediately. Thankful the Poplar now has a great Building Manager. Also, Thank you for the special events you plan for the residents builds a better community “Philly Thing”
