Parking is horrible if you get off past 9 or 10 at night you will spend 30 mins looking for street parking, they offer parking package for 40 dollars per car but closest to some apartments are 2 blocks away... so if you mobility issues or get off late i would maybe look some where else..

We’re very sorry to hear that parking has been a source of frustration for you. Unfortunately, some parking at our apartments is on a ‘first come, first served’ basis, and we cannot always guarantee the availability of conveniently located spots. We... truly want each of our residents to enjoy their homes to the fullest and would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you further about your concerns.

This company will add fees in the middle of a lease
Do not sign a lease with this company. We unfortunately are learning our lesson after they changed the terms of our lease to increase their profit margins.
We signed a lease in 2022 and parking was explicitly explained to be included in the rent. Lived here two years with that being the case. Renewed our lease in April with the only change being an increase in rent of $60. In June they included a new policy to now start charging $40 per car for parking knowing full well there is not enough... street parking for all the people that live at this property. They did this knowing they are violating people’s leases but don’t care because getting a lawyer would cost more.
Luckily they showed their true colors before I had coworkers and family move to this area. I’m hoping to help get a message to anyone interested in staying at any properties owned by this company, Stay far away you never know what other fees they will add in the middle of your lease to feed their greed.

Our team always aims to be transparent with residents regarding potential fees. We would be happy to go over your lease... with you to clarify any misunderstandings. If you feel as though you are being unfairly charged, please give us a call to further discuss.

TRASH!
Management is running the place into the ground. Bugs in my unit no heat no parking and maintenance would park in front of my unit with his radio turned all the way up loud enough to wake up my baby. Trash trash trash don't rent here it's been the worst mistake I have ever made.
