    • Beautiful apartments but terrible management and noisy

      June 1, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
      District lofts are very over priced for how small they are. There is no on call Maintence and good luck getting Caliber to answer there phones. Most units don’t have windows that open so you get zero fresh air. Whiskey river is very noisy next door and you’ll be able to here your neighbors constantly.
