I believe that it has been a great experience so far. We have had a lot of elevator issues in the past, but besides that the neighbors have been very nice to us.

I’ve been living at ReNew for almost 2 years now and my experience has been a largely positive one. The units are nice enough and management is quite responsive when it comes to things that need attention. Security is present often and are pretty friendly as well. The building is pretty secure and I feel safe — and my packages are too. The people you’ll meet around the building are nice for the most part, too. I would recommend this building to family and friends — in fact I’ve already convinced... one friend to move in! :)

Been at ReNew for over 6 years now, and has been an overall good experience. Great location, great management staff, timely maintenance. Amenities like Fitness Center and Pool have been renovated. Security on the premises a lot more often to add additional safety.
Only issues to note is noise issues from time to time, and there have been two fires in the space of one months during December 2025, which provides some concern, though those are isolated incidents.
