I have been a resident for about two years come spring and the complex has just gotten more and more enjoyable unlike my previous apartments where it’s like you move in and are forgotten about, just a number. The maintenance team and leasing office staff are always pleasant and friendly and fast to resolve any issues. I am so glad to have found my home here. Best location downtown!
