The Merrick is an urban oasis right in the middle of the close-in east side action with ample opportunities to explore Portland's other fun and funky neighborhoods. From the Merrick's rooftop lounge you can see the Moda Center (go Blazers!), the twin... glass spires of the Convention Center, several bridges, and the downtown Portland skyline. Walk past the beautiful stonework and reflection pool in our courtyard, hang your keys on the hook by the door, and kick off your shoes because You. Are. Home. The Merrick didn't miss a detail with 10-14ft vaulted ceilings, oversized windows with views of the Portland waterfront, an on-site strength and fitness studio, a rooftop terrace with lounge furniture and spa, and underground parking.

After contacting some apartment complexes and getting an AI instead of a human, the staff at the Merrick was very responsive. Faye was gave me a zoom tour and answered all my questions. My lease was approved today!

Extremely Helpful Staff at The Merrick
My wife and I have lived at the Merrick for going on six years. We love the location and the facility itself, as well as the wonderful staff. This week, the main shelf in our refrigerator broke. It was made of tempered glass, and it chose this week to give up the ghost, shattering into a million pieces. I explained the situation to Faye Ramone who works in the front office. She was both sympathetic to the problem, and extremely helpful and efficient. She responded immediately, organized the... necessary resources, and we had a new refrigerator installed the very next day. I can’t thank Faye enough for all the help. The rest of the staff has been very friendly and helpful on other occasions as well. The Merrick is a great place to live!

Spiffed Up Merrick - Wonderful Staff and Amenities
I will be starting my 7th year at the Merrick soon. The amenities (Gym, Amazon Locker, Secure Mailroom, Garage Parking, Rooftop Patio, Hot-tub Spa and Skylounge with kitchen and 65" Flatscreen TV ) are terrific and so is the location. A shout-out and kudos to our current staff who have been striving to keep everything neat, clean, and organized. Recent updates on carpeting, painting, and decor. Excellent Northeast side downtown location close to commuting routes, bus, Max, and the Streetcar... . Personally, whenever I’ve needed a repair or new appliance, they are right on it. Thank you Carmela, Jorge, Fernando, Tiffany, Faye, Jessica, JuliAnn and Katie for all you do for us.

Don’t rent here
Management does not care about you. You will complain and ask about an issue over and over and they will push it off over and over. Stay away.

Be cautious
We had a fantastic time touring the apartments, and the realtor lady was very clear about prices and options. what was weird was she kept pushing an option out of price range with vaulted ceilings, when she had listed about 4 inside our range that were perfect for us. When we went to apply we found out why-not only had the style of apartment we had been looking out, which had several available, have no availability, but all the prices had gone up at least $300 anyway. The only thing actually... available was the apartment with vaulted ceilings.
Just be honest! No reason to lie about prices or availability.
