Legacy at Arlington Center: Definitely Recommend! (Recommending!)

2009-01-20T10:08:31-06:00

From -Anonymous-: We have lived here for over 2 years, and have been very happy. Pros: Great location in Arlington Center, next to the bike path, Spy Pond, sports fields, playgrounds, as well as all the amenities of Arlington Center. 5 bus lines run directly in front of the building, eliminating the ...

Legacy at Arlington Center: Excellent place to live (Recommending!)

2006-12-13T10:02:49-06:00

From happyinlegacy: I am a current resident at the Legacy apartment complex. I would strongly recommend this place to anyone. The apt units are spacious and new , the carpet changed everytime a new tenant moves in , the appliances are from 'kenmore' and are of the highest quality. The heating and ...

Legacy at Arlington Center: Reputable and Professional in the Boston Area (Recommending!)

2006-02-20T23:54:46-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I was quite pleased during my tenancy at the Legacy at Arlington. The apartments are spacious, well-built, modern and closely located to a variety of shopping and restaurant choices. I looked at many places in Cambridge, Allston, Waltham, and Lexington and choose this complex based on location and the professionalism ... [click to read full apartment review]

Legacy at Arlington Center: Hard to beat in the Boston area (Recommending!)

2004-09-16T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I spent about 16 months in The Legacy while in grad school. Coming from California, where nice apartments are abundant, it was a bit of a shock shopping for an apartment in Boston, Cambridge, and nearby areas. Most are old, not in particularly great shape, expensive, have little or no ... [click to read full apartment review]

Legacy at Arlington Center: Great maintenance, very convenient (Recommending!)

2004-06-20T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I moved in the day they opened (actually toured the place in a hard hat before completion!) and overall was very pleased with my time there. There were some construction glitches (kitchen drawer blocked by oven, poorly painted walls) but they've done a lot to fix anything fixable.

My biggest gripe ... [click to read full apartment review]

Legacy at Arlington Center: great place (Recommending!)

2004-05-06T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Have been here for some time. The location is great, the staff is wonderful, and the apartments are new and well designed. Having your own washer and dryer rocks!

As others write, there is a noise problem, with the neighbours above being heard all the time, but not too loud - ... [click to read full apartment review]

Legacy at Arlington Center: Special Place, Special Location (Recommending!)

2004-04-23T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Rented at the Legacy because of its relatively recent construction. You pay a premium to live in a new, elevator-service building with garage parking, but it´s still a bargain compared to what apartments cost in the cities of Boston or Cambridge just down the road.

The commute to Harvard Square for ... [click to read full apartment review]

Legacy at Arlington Center: Lovely apartment, great location (Recommending!)

2004-02-09T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: We had a great experience at The Legacy. It is a great building for a young family-- easy elevators, fabulous location, and helpful staff. Of special note, Dave Crowley, the superintendent, is a wonderful asset-- he was incredibly helpful and did a tremendous job making sure everyone was comfortable and ...

Legacy at Arlington Center: Don´t live here! (Not Recommending)

2003-07-15T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: If you´d like to pay astronomical amounts for rent to get substandard housing and parking, live here. If you´d like to be given empty promises by the front office staff, live here. If you´d like to hear your drunken neighbor´s arguments through the thin walls every other night, live here.

Legacy at Arlington Center: Fairly nice, but very expensive! (Not Recommending)

2003-05-09T00:00:00-06:00

From jemart1n@hotmail.com: The Legacy is a nice complex right on the bike path. It is expensive ($2200 for a two bedroom with parking garage). The floors and ceilings are very uninsulated and noisy. You can hear people walking around upstairs no matter how lightly they´re walking. The management is very nice and ... [click to read full apartment review]

Legacy at Arlington Center: As a resident you pay for parking (Not Recommending)

2003-04-13T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I lived there for 2 years and liked a lot of things about it (brand new, next to the walking trail and center to town). But I could not believe you had to pay for parking $125 above ground and $150 for underground. Also they have this utility bill issued ... [click to read full apartment review]

Legacy at Arlington Center: Great location, great apartments (Recommending!)

2002-11-18T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I´ve lived here for almost two years (pretty much since they opened), and I love it with one or two exceptions. The sound insulation is pretty bad. You can hear everything from the apartment above yours (I know other residents have had the same problem). Also, there is a lack ... [click to read full apartment review]

Legacy at Arlington Center: Nice in center of town (Recommending!)

2002-10-09T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Legacy is a really new complex in a town where new construction is very sparse.

Pros:
1) Gym is top notch with very nice equipment, tv´s for you to watch and very underutilized-hardly ever see anyone else in there.
2) Right on the bike path so you can ride to Alewife. ... [click to read full apartment review]
