Fantastic Living in DC
I’ve been living at the Empire for about a year now. I frankly cannot complain about anything. The building is clean and always well kept (you can often run into the maintenance staff in the morning). The amenities are on par with the area. The rooftop is a fantastic quiet place to hang out during a nice day. The laundry room is efficient (though it could be slightly less expensive). The staff is absolutely delightful and helpful. The little touches - such as Keurig stations or donuts on cold… morning - were surely appreciated. After living here for almost a year, I have absolutely no complaints.
