I lived at 4700 E. Riverside drive from the day that it opened for business until 2001 when I graduated & the carpet was dirty then, the gates NEVER worked, you could see an HEB cart going down Riverside in rush hour traffic full of groceries & a baby in the seat & a woman pushing it...going by right when you needed to speed across into the complex......I lived in apt 1437 on the 3rd floor & the air condition would rack up a nasty bill during the summer "I can only imagine now", It was Jefferson Commons first & College Park till I left there. I had many arguments with the staff there about many little things, but I graduated in 01 & moved back to Houston & the fact is that even paying $1,175 a month at my apt now here in Houston, there's problems wherever you live & looking back on it....living at 4700 E. Riverside really wasnt that bad, I learned a lot of things living there that prepared me for the real world & it was DAMN cheap compared to living on west campus back then. I guess I'd have to say if I had to do it all over again....I'd live at 4700 E. Riverside all over again because it was the BOMB living there & I was able to study in my own room. HELLO PEOPLE, WHENEVER YOU LIVE IN ANY APT COMPLEX, EVEN PAYING A HEFTY RENT LIKE I AM NOW......KNOW....THERE IS NO PERFECT APT COMPLEX SO IF YOU DONT LIKE 4700 E. RIVERSIDE GET READY CAUSE IT WONT BE A WALK IN THE PARK ONCE YOU GRADUATE & MOVE INTO A NORMAL APT COMPLEX..I guess I just liked living at College Park but I did ----- & ----- about it when I lived there back then too.
