2009-06-19T13:12:10-06:00

From EQuagmire: I lived at Stratford Place for only a year and I could have easily lived there much longer. The apartment was beautifully updated with a great kitchen and fireplace in particular.

Stratford Place Apartments: Reality Check (Not Recommending)

2009-04-19T09:41:22-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The apartments are made out of paper machete. Every single move the neighbors upstairs make, we hear and feel because the building is so poorly put together.
