Awful Place to Live
Overall this complex is so badly run. The leasing office staff is hardly ever present, the gates are a useless inconvenience (they don’t work and they are difficult for guests/ubers/doordash/amazon to use), and they’ll make random changes to their rules/site that again provide no value other than making this a more difficult place to live. on top of that, our downstairs neighbors here were so loud (all night and on weekdays) and violent, and the leasing staff did not care at all. Even when we… provided video evidence of them being loud and violent. We had multiple of our other neighbors vouch for us too, and the apt staff did not care at all. If you plan to live here, good luck.
