    • Great Experience

      January 26, 2023
      Since Fall 2022 when Reacor took over management of the building, we have had a great experience at The Blair Apartments! They staff the office 5 days a week and are quickly responsive to needs. Maintenance communicates well in my experience, when needed, and quickly fixes even non-urgent requests. Due to it being a multi-use building with commercial space beneath, there has been noise from this construction but staff has been understanding with complaints about these even thought its not ...
      particularly within their control. The location is a great part of St. Paul with many restaurants, cafes, AA convenience market, and other shops within walking distance.

        June 30, 2025
        Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We’re so pleased to hear that your time at The Blair Apartments has been positive since Reacor began management. Providing consistent, responsive service is something we take pride in, and it’s great to know our office and maintenance teams have met your expectations. We also appreciate your patience and understanding regarding the noise from the commercial construction below. While some of those challenges are outside our direct control, we remain committed to supporting our residents and doing what we can to minimize the impact. We agree, The Blair’s location in the heart of St. Paul is a true highlight, with great dining, shops, and conveniences just steps away. Thank you again for your thoughtful review and for being a valued part of our community!
