I lived here for six years! The difference between this apartment & in the several others I've lived in is in the management, maintenance, & cleaners. First, Janice & Harley in the front office: besides being fun to talk to (and I'm antisocial), they are protective of patients' rights, safety, and contentedness. They throw a lot of parties (if you're into that thing, or are lonely & want to meet people) and have little contests throughout the year. As for Johnny: that dude is amazing. Not only... does my cat love him, but I never had to wait more than a day for him to fix anything! Super nice guy. As for the cleaning folks, they clean the stairs and hallways every single day, so it always smells good.
They are *all* quick to take care of any issues. If I didn't move out of state I probably could have lived here forever. If you like peace of mind, I highly recommend living here. Thanks for everything guys.

We love living here already. We’ve only recently moved in, but we feel seen and heard by our management more than any other apartment we’ve lived in. Our quality of life has increased exponentially!

Excellent property crew! They’re incredibly helpful, thoughtful, and efficient. We were pleasantly surprised to find our patio freshly power-washed in preparation for summer — a thoughtful touch that really stood out. It’s clear they take pride in maintaining the apartment complex with great attention to detail.

Absolutely great building. The management team is incredibly helpful and friendly and flexible for tenants in the military. The one service request I put in while living there was handled within a couple of hours. Common spaces are well maintained, and there are several events that they host for residents throughout the year.
The area is also one of the best in Norfolk, and the area is very walkable with a great gym nearby, a grocery store in walking distance and lots of great restaurants... and bars
