I lived in the complex only for a brief time in 2005 before being transferred with my job to California. I have to say that the time there was enjoyable. It was the only apartment complex that I have ever lived in that I really liked. I had a corner 2 bd/ 2 ba unit. Lots of windows, washer/dryer provided in the unit and a fireplace, I also like how the porches are set up so that you have an outside door. They were big on not having crap stacked on your patio, which they enforced strictly. I have a dog, and took her to the RxR track (defunct) area to walk her off property and never had an issue with dog poop from other dog owners near me. I did have a parking issue for which I promptly resolved myself. A neighbor in another building owned/operated a power washing and parking lot service type of business and saw fit to park his 6 wheel commercial trucks in front of my building and then walk 2 building away to his apartment. I called the number on the side of his truck and told him to move the heaps of crap to in front of his building. I would see a security patrol regularly patrolling the area by car and on foot. I did not see any safety or security issues. The one issue that absolutely irked the hell out of me was upon moving in It seems that the complex got the cable company to wire the building in exchange for have exclusive service rights for phone, internet and cable. This kind of defeats the purpose of deregulation (if you don t know what that is, Google it). They have a monopoly on the service, so you can t use a cheaper provider. Honestly had I known this when I signed the lease, I would not have moved in. I refused to get internet, cable or phone service I used my cell phone, got satellite TV, and used the internet at work. Other then the monopoly issue I loved the place. Management worked with me when it was time to get out early and I had to pay a minimal fee for breaking the lease. I can t say what has happened since I lived there, but that was my experience, take it for what it is worth.

I am guessing you rented there whne Dermot still owned it. I moved in in 2005 and it was pretty nice until Archstone bought it and then everything changed.Part of the problem is the management there. If you call the corporate office, it will get done and in fact they will give you a mastercard gift card for $50 to apologize. I used mine to buy boxes and cleaning suplies to move out.
