  • I would’ve lived here forever if I could have!

    February 10, 2026
    I absolutely loved my time living at 468 W Melrose. Seth, the Landlord, and Dietmar, the property manager, are so nice and helpful. I lived here for 5 years and know some residents who have lived there for decades. If you can get in here, you should definitely do it.
