  • Terrible

    April 26, 2025
    Laundry machines are ALWAYS broken, elevators are ALWAYS broken. Ogden is a terrible company to rent from, they are a mess!
    Review from Apartments.com
  • Great location & people, poor management

    September 20, 2024
    This property being in the lower east side allowed for great access to the city, Brady St, and the lakefront. Friendly neighbors who always say hi and an amazing on-site property manager who is communicative and helpful. However, the overseeing property management company doesn't seem to care all to much. Packages have been stolen (with no change to security), old building that never gets clean or renovated, constantly broken down laundry units, parking spaces taken by people who don't have ...
    spots, and trash fills up to the point where garbage trucks wont take it.
