I'd like to begin by commending the building's excellent quality and the exceptional work of the maintenance staff. However, I've noticed that the Lansing river trail has become increasingly unsafe over the past few years. The building has experienced frequent police interventions, and there have been several instances of violent crimes nearby, including a shooting during my time here.

The homeless situation in the area has been deteriorating. Residents on the ground floor, including people I… know, have encountered homeless individuals approaching their doors and attempting to gain entry. Recently, there was a squatter in one of the vacant apartments. Despite multiple residents reporting the issue to the front office, this individual remains there. While security cameras and a hired guard have been implemented, they haven't had a significant impact on resident safety. Consequently, there is a growing sense of concern among all residents.

Although I acknowledge the efforts of local churches and the LPD to assist those in need, I've observed a steady decline in the area's condition. Given the current state, I wouldn't recommend these apartments to loved ones, even at a reduced price. There are alternative luxury housing options in the vicinity that might be worth exploring until the Property Management demonstrates a stronger commitment to security and community well-being.

It's disheartening since the location offers convenient access to downtown. However, newer buildings in the area could provide similar benefits. For individuals such as young professionals, graduate students, or prospective parents of residents, I strongly advise considering other options. Your primary concern should always be your safety.
