As with the fellow below, I have also lived in the building for several years. Rents have gone up so much they have forced most people out of their homes. Don't expect to live there more than your one year lease because the rent will be significantly increased after your first year.
There is also a terrible noise issue in the building. The walls on my bedroom are paper thin. I can hear people in the shower, talking, on the phone and when they play music, it sounds like it is on in my own bathroom! When you ask them about it, don't expect a sympathetic ear. They don't acknowledge there is an issue but if you talk to other residents, everyone has the same problem. Don't expect to get new carpeting either. You would expect it for the price, but it won't happen.
The up side is the maintenance staff is friendly.
In the now competetive market, I think you can get a better bang for your money. Kennedy Biscuit should have lowered their rents to be competetive but instead, are increasing them yearly.
