    July 28, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
    I have lived in several apartment complexes since moving to Austin in 1993. This one has the best floor plan for a one bedroom unit. The complex is the best maintained of all of them. No matter what I need to have taken care, it is done quickly and efficiently by qualified maintenance people. There are extra perks for people to save for opening a business or to buy a house. And all of this for people on a limited income. Three cheers for Foundations Communities.

    This place is home
