Post Meridian - great location, but I would have selected the Gables if I had to do it over

I moved into Post Meridian in April of 2005 and would not recommend Post Meridian.
I selected an apartment on the first floor of the complex, for which I paid approximately $1070 per month.
From its initial appearance, the apartment really shows well:
* It is in a great part of town, which is near West Village and all of the restaurants/clubs on McKinney.
* My neighbors seemed to be really nice
* The complex has a nice large pool
* Security cards required to enter the building and parking garage
* The apartment had wood floors, a garden tub, and nice carpet
Although, I would be hard pressed to recommend this apartment complex.
I have lived in 5 or 6 apartment complexes, and this complex ranks near the bottom.
Here are a few of the issues that I had with the Post Meridian complex:
* Difficult to get ahold of apartment management.
Often when I called the number for the management office, the call is routed to a call center in Atlanta, which would then send a message to Meridians manager.
In addition, I think the manager of Post Meridian also is responsible for 2 or 3 other Post Properties in Uptown.
* The office that manages Post Meridian is located 2 or 3 blocks away.
I rarely saw the apartment manager on-site.
* Parking is an issue.
Only 1 parking space is available per apartment, and no parking spaces are available for visitors.
Twice, I have returned from a trip to find someone elses car in my space.
I could not get in contact with the apartment management to have the car removed.
Street parking is available, but is difficult to find on Thursday, Friday, and Saturdays.
* Water backed up in both my kitchen sink and my bathroom sink when my upstairs neighbors ran their water.
This happened constantly throughout my 6 months.
Each time the maintenance would visit to snake my drain and say it was fixed.
* The water pressure in the tub was incredibly weak.
* The walls are a bit thin.
I could regularly hear my neighbor upstairs walk around (and other stuff) at night.
* The power goes out at least once a week which forced me to reset my clocks.
* There were often people out by the pool/courtyard at late hours and their voices can carry to all apartments.
* The new wood floors in my bathroom and kitchen buckled.
Twice, I had mentioned the buckling to maintenance personnel, but nothing was done.
For $1070 per month, I would recommend others to look at the Gables properties, which has several complexes in the area.
If you do select Post Meridian, I would especially avoid the apartments on the first floor.

The apartment complex is a very pretty mustard yellow, It makes me crave sandwitches.
The apartment complex is in a great part of town and is near the police department (I know this because they are here all the time and arrive quickly when you call them)
My Neighbours seem to be really nice too, but I caught them throwing frozen smelts into my sun roof, which resulted in a very unusual aroma in my car and ruined a road trip I took with a male friend of mine.
The complex has a nice large pool, that I often see some Indian lady washing her clothes in. Which I find oddly strange and arousing.
The apartment had a garden tub in which I grew water chesnuts and raised a flock of miniature ducks, shortly before I was incarcerated.
The apartment staff is very hard to get ahold of, I will agree, especially for me because I like to eat lots of pringles with my bare hands I found them slippery and hard to get ahold of.
You are also right about the calls being routed to Atlanta, When I called to complain about a mysterious blood spot that reappears on my carpet, I was transfered to a Jamacian woman in north atlanta who kept asking me my zodiac sign and if I liked living "down south"
I too hardly ever saw the apartment mgr on site, I did run into him at a local leather bar, He smelled of neets foot oil and aqua velva.
Parking is difficult, I would have to race home from work or complete for a 3 foot wide space that was often taken by a fat chick on a scooter.
Plumbing was bad I will agree, whenever my upstairs neighbour was entertaining his extended family my bathrub would over flow and the smell of warm bacon grease would permiate all the way into my hall closet.
This caused an obsession with breakfast and I gained 30 lbs in 2 months.
The walls are very thin, I will agree on that too.
I often heard my next door neighbours planning a bank robbery, I never put two and two together till I saw them wearing panty hose and demanding small un marked bills. Otherwise they were a very quiet and friendly group.
The power goes out and when it does you will lose your time setting, so I recommend buying an alarm clock with a battery in it.
I would highly recommend this place.
