I accompanied my friend Sara on a tour of the apartments and I loved the building. Our tour guides Brianna and Dani did a great job showing us around. I love location of this apartment. I work in DC so this apartment is in great because of its close proximity to the metro.

I had the pleasure of doing a tour with Brianna and Dani who were well informed about the property. They both were very welcoming and friendly showing me all of the available units within the property.

I really want to take a moment to highlight tour guide Bre Dade for her excellent guidance during our tour. I really recommend that better closet space is included but overall I love it ! The pool space was huge and it is a great location within the DC area.

This used to be a very nice building. I lived there for 14 years before bailing out last November. Everything you read in the other bad review is all true. The latest trauma is what happens to the neighborhood every Saturday night when crowds of teenagers run rampant. Google "Navy Yard curfews" and see what you get. It's cheap for a reason.

Do not move in into this place. It is terrible. They misrepresent the building. They don’t announce the hidden fees which you end up paying when moved in. Hidden fees are for gas and electric in the communal spaces. Electric bill for communal space exceeds my personal electric bill twice - and I work from home and have TV and electricity on during the whole day.
This is insane! You end up paying for all the people who don’t want to watch TV at their homes and come to the lounge area. TV in the... lounge area is on and working 24/7.
Leasing office treats you terribly. They avoid any sort of issues and “play ball” once you come with On my way! Issue. Building manager is absolutely rude and her client management skills are non-existent.
The team never knows what is your GL balance in terms of rent balances. The GL can have erroneous charges. Or the leasing team “forgets” to post any discounts like free month and you have to be diligent and check everything to the penny.
Terrible terrible building.
