    Living in Proto has been an incredible experience for us. The sense of community here is amazing - people are always willing to lend a helping hand, whether it's with a package delivery or a recommendation for a nearby restaurant. We also love the lobby and fitness center - they're modern, clean, and well-maintained. Overall, we feel lucky to call Proto our home and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch living experience

    Living at Proto has been a great experience! The staff is always friendly and available when needed. The maintenance staff comes quickly when I have a service request. The neighborhood keeps evolving. So many nice restaurants have opened, and the kayaking is so much fun! There is so much to do here, and Beacon Hill is just s short walk over the bridge. I just love it!
