2001-12-11T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Overall, an acceptable complex, but not without its drawbacks:
-Can be quite noisy. The hallways between the apartments act like echo chambers sometimes, and definitely think twice about taking a bottom floor apartment. Any upstairs tenant will sound like a herd of elephants regardless of what they´re doing.
-Parking is ridiculous. Covered ... [click to read full apartment review]

Management staff is not very friendly (some of leasing staff is great).

No crime and a quiet neigborhood.
