The Onyx

Overall, I’ve had a mixed experience living here. The building is extremely loud, both from traffic and cars on the street and from noise coming from neighboring units, particularly from upstairs neighbors. The way the apartments are structured is also a little strange, as there is an intake fan in the primary bedroom that is extremely loud and cannot be turned off by residents. Between the street noise, upstairs neighbors, and constant fan noise, it can make it difficult to get a good night’s… sleep.

That being said, the amenities are definitely one of the highlights of living here. The gym is amazing and has pretty much everything you could need, to the point where you really wouldn’t need a separate gym membership. The spa is also a great feature, and the pool area is a really nice place to relax and unwind. There are also some great resident events planned, and it’s clear that the team is putting effort into creating a fun community.

There are still some kinks that need to be worked out, such as the guest parking situation. The maintenance team can also be a little slow when it comes to completing requests.

Overall, there are definitely some great features and amenities here, but there are also several areas that could be improved to make the overall living experience better for residents. Read More

I applied and was approved at The Onyx with a scheduled 7/20 move-in, relocating my family from New York for work. I paid their fees, received a formal welcome letter with my unit number, address, lease dates, and move-in charges, and for two weeks the leasing office repeatedly assured me the unit was ready. Based on those assurances, I booked a long-distance moving company, and our entire household was picked up and shipped west.
On 7/17 — three days before move-in, with our belongings already… on a truck the office informed me the unit wasn't construction-ready and had no firm completion date. My family was left without housing and had to book an Airbnb in New York out of pocket while I scrambled for solutions.
I tried to work with them: I considered their alternate units, arranged a temporary unit, and asked for fair compensation for the documented costs their delay caused. They refused. Throughout all of this, no one took accountability and once things went wrong, getting anyone on the phone became nearly impossible; calls went unanswered and unreturned. I've walked away, requested my money back, and am restarting an apartment search with a truck full of furniture in transit and a job start date days away.
The building is new and looks beautiful in tours. But they confirmed a move-in date for weeks on a unit that was never ready, then went quiet when it mattered most. If you plan a move around their word, get everything in writing and have a backup plan. Read More
