Beautiful lofts
August 7, 2023
I LOVE this place and cannot recommend it enough! A lot of the older reviews of this building have concerning and valid points but management has made a lot of improvements in the last year (2023). There is a new elevator that always works. The building is secure and you need a key fob to get anywhere. There is a security guard in the building and all mail is in the secured lobby. There is no loitering in the building these days. The leasing agent, Kamilah, is very kind, professional, and ...
responsive. My neighbors are wonderful, quiet and considerate. The apartments are beautiful industrial lofts with large windows and ceilings that are so high that the pictures do not do them justice. The location is in the heart of downtown and rent includes a spot in a nice nearby parking garage. The only downside is that there is a massive bus terminal down the street so there are a lot of characters on the block sometimes. Somewhat standard for downtown loft living.

Live anywhere but here
February 28, 2022
Living here is horrible. The "private tenant entrance" elevator has been broken down for over a year (almost two) and the public elevator breaks down on a regular basis turning this building into a 7 floor walkup. If you cannot do the 7 flights of stairs on a regular basis I do not recommend living here at all. Some noise is to be expected but the walls are so thin you can hear everything your neighbors do. There is no soundproofing at all. They have upped security after multiple assaults and ...
other serious security incidents. This place should be a last resort.
