Crap - don't be fooled by the nice looks

This could be a nice place, but the residents and management ruin it. Many of the people who live here use or deal drugs, and whole floors smell like pot and cigarettes. Other reviews have already talked about the fights and general disturbances... the "24 hour guard service" is a joke. But they polish the lobby nicely and hope that that'll be enough for you to pay double what you should be paying for an apartment ... Don't be fooled!!
