Resident 2011 - 2013

3/24/2013

My wife and I (along with our almost 2 yr old) have lived here issue free from 12/11, until present. This is the 3rd place for my family (the formers being a 1 bedroom apt when we first got married, and a condo which we sold in order to move here closer to my work) My experience here has been very pleasant. We live in a 3rd floor New Yorker (2 bed 2 full bath). I agree with other reviews that it seems that the walls were painted with primer, probably to allow tenants to paint their own areas, but since this is only a temporary place for us, we decided not to paint. The only reason I bring this up (as everything still prepared nicely for us when we moved in) is that it is difficult, almost impossible to wipe off a spot on the wall. The bedrooms are very large, with ample closet space. Two full baths allow guests to take showers in their own bathroom without having to walk through the master bedroom to get to ours. My 1 yr old also has her own tub that we give her baths in. This way our master bathroom isn't filled with Elmo floaty toys. :-) Since we have the New Yorker, we have an end unit with plenty of windows. Great sunlight (my cat agrees as he loves to sun bathe) The kitchen is a typical apartment style kitchen, nothing too spectacular, but a decent amount of storage space. We have a formal dining room with a 14' high cathedral ceiling that is great for entertaining. It fits our dining room table, our hutch that displays our wedding china, and a dry sink that displays what we like to have on stressful days. ;-) ***MANAGEMENT*** Tracy and Michelle have been great. There was one instance where I had an issue with my direct deposit, and there was a delay with my paycheck. I let Tracy know ahead of time that I was anticipating an issue, and she worked with me to come up with a resolution. I remember after we worked it out that she told me verbatim, "I understand... things do happen. Just keep me in the loop if things change with our resolution." She has no idea how much I appreciated this. We are beginning to search for a townhouse since we are starting to outgrow the apartment. My daughters things are starting to spill over into our areas, so we have decided to look into bigger places. We still have time left on our lease, but our apartment is probably the most desirable in the complex. I am interested in seeing what options are discussed with us once we make an appointment to speak with Tracy. Overall, I would recommend this place to friends or family looking for a roomy apartment.
