From the outside--Meridian apartments seems like a really nice place to live; that is until you actually move in to the complex. The carpet is old and dingy, they try(keyword here) to clean it a little before new tenants move in to the complex. The apartments are really old and dark. I lived here for over three years, because they were affordable and I was finishing up my last few years of college. Did I mention when they choose to resurface the parking lots, you are unable to park in the parking lot. They designate certain area's, normally across the street or really far from your building for tenants to park your vehicles. Not safe for a woman who normally gets home from work around 9:30pm. At one point, the tenants had a petition circulating to get the management staff terminated. I'm not sure what the outcome of this petition.

At one point, I went to retrieve the mail from the mailboxes outside of the offices and the entire panel was unlocked. Does the word identity theft come to mind' Our patio would flood whenever there was a really bad rain. When the patio flooded, the floor in our bedroom would also flood. I notified maintenance, and the leasing office several times, and they would only bring a fan to dry the carpet. They really didn't care about the water, up under the carpet or the dresser and chest of drawers which was totally ruined from the water damage. I was told they are not responsible for the loss of my property, although the inadequate structures of the building were the reason the patio would flood. I'm waiting for Code Enforcement to get back with me.

Did You know these apartments are owned the City of Tampa Housing Authority' I found this out the day before we moved out of this hell hole.
