TLDR - great on paper, looks amazing on tours, less rad once you live here.

once you move in, you learn the quirks... the doors dont work so homeless people at the bus stop can just wander in. the outdoor tv and half the grills are broken. the doors to the rooftop dont work - you need to sneak through the bathroom. the dog park on the roof has no drainage so it absolutely REEKS of dog pee in the summer... right next to the pool.

and most of all.... every single person's rent has been hiked at... LEAST 15% each year. my neighbors' was increased 25%, despite the ongoing issues.

my roommate and i are planning to move out when our lease is up - we KNOW we'll be hit with a $700 increase and will bail the second it happens. Lee mas

great layouts in a superb location. super clean in spite of a ridiculous number of pets. but there is no credible access control, the building is pretty beat up and getting worse as it ages, and management is unable to keep up.

Don't make this mistake. Horrible place to live and crazy rent

Street access doors haven’t been locked for 2 years. Elevators rarely fully functional. Gym equipment poor condition or missing. Grills broken. A/V in community spaces broken. A/C out for multiple floors for months at a time. Nothing but excuses from management. No action.

I highly recommend it to expatriates who have been assigned to Washington, D.C.
