2009-11-09T20:43:57-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I lived in River Place West for nine years from 1997 - 2006. I chose it because of its location (close to DC and close to the metro), and because it was very affordable.

2006-07-14T11:11:57-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I lived at River Place West for several years. The new building management is good. However, it's a crap shoot with neighbors.

River Place West: Overpriced but an OK place to live. (Recommending!)

2006-04-24T13:02:27-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The rent in this building will vary as the units are owned individually and rented out by the owners, not the management. This is an older building build in the 1960s and so don't expect a posh setup like other high-rises in the area.

The community is made up of ... [click to read full apartment review]

River Place West: Good location, too bad about the management (Recommending!)

2005-02-01T14:03:26-06:00

Unfortunately it is noisy - ... [click to read full apartment review]
