Resident 2011 - 2012

8/11/2012

I lived here for exactly one year during my second year of law school. I would like to start off by discussing the view. It's what attracts most people, I'm sure. Terrace has one of the best views of the city that you can find. At the price, it's the best view period. Most of the apartments have a large glass window leading out to a patio. I wish I had more time to sit out on the patio and just watch the city, you get lost in it. The parking was okay. Occasionally, the parking would get full and I would have to park on the other end of the complex and make a walk. Additionally, since the apartment is on a hill, you and your car definitely get a workout each time you have to walk or drive up. Unfortunately, the trash collection is at the bottom of the hill too. If you're not a fan of putting your trash in your car... be ready to get an additional workout. It's not bad, just not great in that aspect. There is no noise. Neighbors are either grad/med/law students who are always studying or they are older retired individuals. There are a few that don't meet that criteria, but they are as quiet as the rest. Additionally, the walls are hard cinderblock or something, i don't know... but nothing gets through them. The area is also pretty safe. Occasionally, it feels uncomfortable walking to your apartment from the back entrance, due to it being right up against the side of the mountain, there is alot of greenery behind you. I was always wondering "is someone watching me?" But I never had any issues, nor do I know of any. Plus the greenery adds to the unique aspect of the apartment, especially during a storm. The way the apartment is on the mountain, you can open your patio window, and your front door, and the wind rushing up the mountain will shoot through your apartment.. and make a/c needless. Unfortunately, the central heat is inadequate. The AC and the hot water were ridiculously awesome though. The heat, however, used alot of power for not much of a result. I wanted to save the best for last, and that is the staff. Rueben works maintenance and Ms. Jean works the office. Both are great, quick to respond to any issue or question, and professional. They are nice and cordial when you pass by them without getting into your business or being too inquisitive. I found Ms. Jean as the most professional manager I've ever met, and Rueben was just a great guy all around, and good at his job too. I would recommend this place to anyone.
