Resident 2009 - 2010

5/18/2010

I moved into The Venue December of 2009. I find the Venue apartments a good value for the money. Overall, I think the property is very well maintained by great maintenance men who are always helpful and friendly. The front office ladies are very nice and always welcoming and warm with any matters. The common areas are well maintained, and it has a medium sized pool, great gas (and free to use) BBQ area grill, and was built in a quiet neighborhood. The highway is close, but not close enough to cause any disturbing noise. Each unit was over wired (a good thing) - you have a cable and internet jack on BOTH walls (e.g. North and South, or East and West wall) - this allows you more ways to arrange where you place your TV/Computer/Internet access devices. Areas I think The Venue could improve upon: Being that I'm big on security, I think the biggest area could be the access control devices. (1) Have the front gate remote only open one gate if you are close to it, and have the gates double-tiered (to prevent tailgating). Also, the access control panel (call box) seems to make awkward squelching with certain sized vehicles (vans and trucks, but smaller cars seem not so much). This could be an issue with the mic gain on the panel -- have your delivery person/guest hold their hand over the speaker while you buzz them in. Also, the "people gates" (the ones with the push button codes you walk through) and outside perimeter fencing should have anti-climb mechanisms on them. Someone can easily halfway jump over them (e.g. the belly hover) and pull up the handle on the other side opening the gate. Having said this, the property has gone "the mile" in making the efforts needed: The community is well lit at night in most common areas and inside corridors; Construction utilizes self-locking access control exits; The community has more than one entrance/exit; Geographic position has cell phone coverage by all three major carriers; Construction utilized installation of non-gap perimeter fencing; All units come with a pre-wired intrusion system.
