I love living at the esplanade. The office is always helpful, "Voncell","Trenell", and everyone including the security desk clerk are always helpful. Yes it is a old building, but that is part of its charm, it is very clean, and the maintenence guys will work their tail's off to please you. Unfortunitly, their was a murder in the parking lot. But who commits random killings 100 feet from a police station. That was a targeted "hit". Besides I see more officers, that live in my building everyday, then i see on the streets of new orleans. Trust me, its very safe. Its reallty like a small family, If you were there for the hurricane, you know what i mean.
