2009-12-16T21:36:24-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Living here for less than a year now I have been hearing of breakins and also saw the police attending to some activity that took place early last Saturday morning, which was very scary.

Archstone Governor's Green: Residential Service SUCKS! (Not Recommending)

2008-02-05T15:06:32-06:00

From CaspertheFriendlyGhost: This place... man... what a joke. Where do I begin? Hmm... how about with the non-working employees in the rental office.

2006-07-16T10:06:40-06:00

From -Anonymous-: We were concerned about noise levels but insured that the walls were very THICK. Well, we could hear our neighbors phone ringing, arguments with her boyfriend AND the make-up sessions.

Archstone Governor's Green: good but location inconvenient (Recommending!)

2003-02-25T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I moved to Archstone Governor´s Green sight unseen, using Archstone´s policy of allowing renters from other complexes they own/manage to switch the lease without penalty. This is a terrific perk, by the way!
