Continuum

I enjoyed living there for six months last year. It was a quite nice and pleasant place to live with good amenities. A grocery store and a Starbucks were located on the first level, which made my life convenient. It's about 15 minutes walk to the center of Cambridge, which was also a good exercise.

Sherikaye made my move in smooth. The building is secure, clean and with good amenities. The front desk is always very helpful. Im on upper level so its quiet here. Dont know about people living in lower floors (2-5).

If you like to pay a high price for eternal noise, broken amenities, poor management, and tons of unfriendly people this is the place to be.

I have lived here for almost two years and the ONLY reason we have stayed is the convenience. I am close to school and Trader Joe’s on the first floor is amazing. But the building is terrible - so poorly built - I can hear everything through the walls, from neighbors talking to upstairs neighbors walking around, to the bus noise from outside. The noise is unbearable and I have spent $1000 on headphones, etc to try to enable me to sleep. I have had packages disappear, been locked out of my... apartment because the battery on my fob died, among other minor issues that all add up to make living here miserable. Some of the front door attendants are really great and others are terrible, leaving the desk unattended for long periods of time. There are several Airbnb-type temporary units so your neighbors can be changing constantly and you have little control over that. If you are moving to the area, particularly if you’re a student (as most of the residents here are), I would very strongly recommend you look elsewhere. You can find a much better deal in Cambridge.

I just finished a year lease and moved out. We were participating in a Harvard program so the location was ideal for us. Pet friendly, 24 hour concierge, under ground parking and the exercise room were what sold the property for us. They recently opened a Trader Joe's on the ground floor, which is convenient, but we were on the 4th floor above the loading docks. You can hear the trucks and moving crates at 6 am and all through the day. The North building does not have a concierge desk so you... have to walk over for a concierge or to get a cart. The exercise room is well equipped. We were able to keep our parking underground when Trader Joe's opened but many lost their spots. Trader Joe's claims most of the spots except for one row against the wall. At the moment there is outdoor parking at the lot next door. I thought the concierge staff was attentive but they can have an "attitude". Read More
