    Solid (but overpriced)
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - Nice area in the neighborhood
    - Apartments aren’t too old considering they’re in EV
    Cons:
    - People steal packages a lot
    - Very small fridges
    Over 2 years ago
    Management company is the worst
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location is great, Clean, awesome maintenance guy
    Cons:
    No gas service for 5+ months, changing gas to electric stove without telling tenants, major construction without any notification, zero communication from property management about issues, tried to enter my apartment for 3+ hours of construction with no prior notice, heat constantly goes out, front door has issues that leave building with out locks
    Advice to owner:
    Get a better management company and communicate much better
    Over 2 years ago
    Easy, loud, not cheap
    Former Tenant
    Pros:

    Cons:
    Noise levels and tiny overpriced apartments
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the windows
