Cons

Advice to the owners
Better security
Fine, But Loud and Overpriced
Pros
Nice spacious apartments with modern finishings. Maintenance were always very prompt with maintenance requests and the staff on the mailroom were really nice. Staff in the leasing office were extremely helpful when organising a sublease/lease transfer.
Cons
Elevators constantly out of service the entirety of the time I lived there. Walls are incredibly thin so you can hear everything that happens in the apartment next door and above. Price was high for what it was - outdoor areas were out of service the whole time I lived there, and there was constant construction with extremely high noise levels. HUGE rent increases. When I was leaving our rent (2 bed, 1 bath) increased by $1800, which coincided with the closure of the gym and even more construction. Neighbors were...interesting. There's a group home-type facility in all of the buildings, so if you're on the floor above or below, prepare to be awoken in the middle of the night to screaming, banging etc. Staff at front door were consistently rude.
