Academy Place Apartments

Academy place offers are amazing and by no means should one feel confined to the apartment. We really enjoy movie night in the auditorium, we utilize the fitness room on a daily basis, and we have enjoyed socializing with other tenants in the clubroom as well as out on the picnic grounds. Management is courteous and if a need should arise, it is addressed and resolved in a timely matter. The building is always clean and it is very secure...and it is within walking distance of all that the Crystal City has to offer. Feeling grateful for being able to experience Academy Place living.

original seating and stage, functions as a monthly movie theater/community event room. The clubhouse, located in the old projection room above the auditorium, is a great area to mingle. It can accommodate up to a couple dozen people and comes with a kitchenette, living room & dining room furnishings, a large screen TV, and a small business center. Each apartment is unique, yet each has its own coziness that allows the tenant to relax and absorb the history of the structure. We love to cook and entertain friends and our kitchen is perfect for such purposes. Although I prefer a gas stove for cooking, I was able to quickly adapt to electric. The side-by-side refrigerator/freezer works well and the ice machine/filtered water are a plus. A large microwave and a dishwasher round out the kitchen. The entire apartment complex is very quiet. We live on the first floor, the location of apartment mailboxes, and still, we are amazed at how quiet and private the hallway is. The bathrooms are very roomy and we have enjoyed the oversized, walk-in showers with a hand-held shower head. Having a full-sized washer and dryer in each apartment is huge. We are not big air conditioning people, but that option is available if temperatures are running on the warm side. In the winter, the heat is very comfortable. As far as utilities are concerned, refuse (trash & recycling) and cable/internet (two cable ports) are included in our monthly rent. We have found the electric and water bills to very comparable to when we owned a home. Overall, I give Academy Place Apartments a 4.5 out of 5 stars, as no place is absolutely perfect. It is a very clean, quiet, and secure living environment with a relaxed community atmosphere that is easily within walking distance of historic Market Street, the Rockwell Museum, and The Corning Museum of Glass. I highly recommend Academy Place Apartments for anyone looking to give apartment living a whirl.
