If you like being lied to while being accused of lying, this is the place for you! If you like people banging on your door with eviction notices when you've paid rent every single month, this is the place for you!

The Flamingo Apartment sits right off the lake giving you a view of the sun-rise and a few feet away from the beach and fire pits. The Flamingo is around the corner from The Museum of Science and Industry. Public transportation is 1-3 blocks away .There's also a mini gym ,washer and dryer and secure postal boxes to insure that you always get your package.
