I have lived all over the world and in at least 20 different apartments and also had a house. As a former landlord/owner of a 15 unit property I have a good picture of both sides of the landlord/tenant situation. Anyone who is lucky enough to live in The Sitka should be thanking their lucky stars. Where else in the entire country can one live in one of the most deluxe neighborhoods in the country for less than 1/2 of market value rent' Seeing some of the negative reviews here I am certain that they are written by people with little or no experience of apartment living. Most income restricted units are located out in the boonies and are dumpy. Anyone who knows anything about construction can see there are a lot of nice quality touches to these units and you would normally ahve to pay more than twice the rent here to get the kind of quality that is the Sitka. The staff here is very helpful and professional. The entire place is cleaned on a daily basis--even on the weekends. The streetcar comes right to the door. The internet is free. If it is sometimes too slow then go and get your own DSL. Anyone who has lived many places as I have really appreciates everything about this place. I can hop right on the streetcar or walk to Amtrak. I can take a cheap train right to the airport.How many U.S. have that kind of convenience' Without taking a cab I can go to any place in the entire world. The money I pay here would get me a dumpy studio downtown full of drunks and druggies. Either the people who wrote negative reviews are naive or just frustrated and angry with life. I have paid three times as much rent in some places and gotten far less.
