The Boulevard Apartments

I've lived here for a few years now and the amenities are well-maintained and the staff goes out of their way to help with any issues that arise. Everything from assistance with packages to updating information about parking. Musu and Amanda do a great job of keeping us informed about any property improvements or updates and Chris always ensures the leasing process is easy and without a hassle.

I’m now in my 8th month at the boulevard and I have to say it’s been an overwhelmingly positive experience. I love the light I get from the large windows, and the high ceilings. My plants have never been happier.

Musu at the front desk has been so cool and helpful. Ive felt welcomed from the process of the applications to now, any I really couldn’t be happier with the service she’s provided.

I’ve only had two small maintenance requests but they were taken care of quickly within hours of my... request. The building is secure, the price is great for the space, everything works great, it’s clean, my packages always get to me, and I have no desire to move anywhere else for some time.

If you’re looking for updated downtown living at a good price this is your place. Read More

Well, another manager and assistant manager down. This past year, we've cycled through four managers – one who never began work, another who quit after a few weeks, another after a few months, and one who disappeared for a few months before showing up for her last week. With maintenance workers changing seemingly daily, this place is quite the party!

Having lived at The Boulevard for nine years, I feel like I owe it to potential applicants, potential employees, and former employees to share an... honest assessment. There are many positives at this property – great location, large units, good amenities, (more) affordable than comparables, friendly staff. It's a good place and, unlike some reviewers, I expect and accept noise, inconveniences, and questionable neighbors in a building of this size and in this location.

Around seven years ago, Simpson purchased this property and made a lot of changes. They reduced staff – three leasing agents to one and a half (now one), three cleaning personnel to one, and fewer maintenance folks. With the unique size of the apartments, prices skyrocketed (an additional $1000 for a two bedroom) for a few months before they realized they couldn't command those prices and prices decreased. They also removed events except during the time of year they request reviews. A woman used to cook a free dinner for residents three times a month! With fewer staff, work orders took longer, cleanliness dropped, and retention in residents and employees plummeted. The place changed dramatically.

As I said, it's still a good place for the most part. I must give a shout out to a lot of the wonderful employees who, although strapped and horribly supported by Simpson, do their best to maintain the building and a community. The individual leasing agents manage the turmoil, even when overwhelmed and forced to perform all office roles for a 300-unit building – something that has happened often under this management company. Whitney, Bobby, Tyler, Andrew, and others have been wonderful. Sadly nobody lasts because of Simpson and their inability to support their employees, instead focusing on doing the least/providing the least they can while still filling the building. These greater profits allow for growth and purchasing the next building with suckered employees. It's shameful. Read More
