BEWARE.
This place is riddled with issues & their “brand new” apartments for rent are anything but new. Their advertised rent costs do not include such basic “amenities” as SEWER, or arbitrary amounts for “community power” used to light the flashy rooftop patio that are left fully lit all night long (though use of this patio is restricted, costs additional fees to utilize, & closes entirely to residents at 10PM). My “new” apartment ultimately cost me approximately 150% of the rate I’d been originally... quoted. The repairs done after the prior resident were shoddy & quickly deteriorated from light everyday use in areas such as around the shower & the window. My WiFi & mail were tampered with on several known occasions, “secure” doors were propped open by screws or left wide open by staff on multiple occasions that I witnessed firsthand, & the hired security was intermittent and ineffective. During my first months, my washing machine broke & took several rounds of maintenance requests dismissed without action & over a month to finally resolve. One of my ceiling fans went over 6 months inoperable & several more unattended maintenance requests, never to be fixed. The office was frequently inexplicably closed during posted business hours, & my requests for ADA accommodation for my documented disability (or at very least the management company’s policies on this matter) were entirely ignored & my legal caretaker harassed for her necessary presence on the grounds to care for me in a time of great distress & personal safety concerns, which I expressed in writing to the management. Several of my packages were stolen from the Mail Room & held or returned to sender by the office. On one occasion, the office accepted two more packages for me that they later flat out denied having received, though FedEx delivery photos & my own eyes verified these as having been present inside the office within view from the lobby behind their locked glass doors.

We are sorry your experience with us was not a better one. We do welcome additional occupants including healthcare support but as we discussed, we need some documentation. All packages are delivered to residents or picked up by them, we apologize of... yours didn't make it to you.
