Construction sucks and no one cares. There is not much done to help the residents who are greatly impacted (i.e. when it has been below your beedroom window for 3 months).The gym is constantly too hot.

We understand how disruptive nearby construction can be, especially when it impacts your home environment for an extended period of time. While the construction project has since been completed, we recognize the frustration it caused for some... residents and appreciate your feedback. We also take concerns about our amenity spaces seriously and are continuing to monitor the gym environment to help ensure a comfortable experience for residents. Thank you for sharing your perspective.

Josh is amazing. He truly cares about the residents' experience, is always available, and has an uncanny way of making everyone happy. I've been here for four years and at another building for three. He is the best GM I have experienced.
