The Edison at Gordon Square

"We were charged $100 cleaning fee upon move out. My roommate and I cleaned thoroughly and left no damage. They did not respond to our emails when we asked about the charge. Additionally, we had birds in our vents and management did very little to help. Finally, my car was stolen and they seemed to have no urgency to increase security. The one positive is the maintenance team. They are the best thing at the Edison. Quick and responsive"

"I’ve lived here for a year and a half. I switched units for a bigger one so I have been at this property for a while. This property has been under new management for a couple months now. The new management company is definitely trying to solve a lot of issues (some outside of their control). For example, yes cars get broken into and packages get stolen, but you live near downtown Cleveland, there will be crime in the area. (We were told that Security and maintenance did catch someone who was breaking into cars so that’s promising) I will say that I have definitely recognized the renovations that they’ve been doing and additional steps they’ve taken. For example, and they renovated the gym, they are renovating the dog wash. They have a cleaning company on nights to clean the common areas as well. They are installing new WiFi and they are installing new security cameras. The maintenance staff is responsive and helpful. The staff is very nice and trying their best. As someone who has worked with property management overhead, it’s sometimes difficult to get specific requests done. So take some of these reviews with a grain of salt. The biggest plus of living here is that it is extremely dog friendly. So if you don’t like dogs, I suggest you find an apartment that doesn’t allow them, because there are plenty around. If you love dogs or have one, this is the place for you."

"The Edison is a awesome place to live. The property is well kept, apartments and lofts are updated and reasonably priced. Love the monthly events they have for residents. Most importantly the staff is a Amazing group!! U can really tell they care about this place!"

"Would love to have given new management a chance but unfortunately there isn’t any effort on improving. My friend was subject of a car jacking here last week and they have not responded to her not myself when asked what is going to be done. For as much money as I pay I would expect some sort of security patrolling but there is nothing. People that do not live in the building are constantly walking in and out and I have witnessed numerous drug deals inside. Unfortunately the price is not worth and the cons outweigh the pros. If more was being done to combat the cons I would probably renew but that has not happened."

"Last week I was involved in an attempted car jacking while walking to my car. 2-3 men in a vehicle came up to me and told me to give them my car. I got in my car but they had me pinned in between the curb and their car. They kept banging on my window yelling at me to give them my car. Luckily someone from another building was driving by and it spooked them off. It was terrifying. The lights in the parking lot remain out. They say someone will be out to fix them but that has yet to happen. Parking is a disaster. There’s constantly people without parking stickers in our lot which takes up space for people who pay a lot of money to live there. The doors haven't been fixed in over 4 months. I shouldn’t blast this as who knows who will be reading. Anyone can walk in at any time. There’s no security in our building. They say they have people patrolling but I rarely see that. The new management is terrible. They do not respond to any emails. You ask to see a storage unit and they say they will call to show you them. No one ever calls. After the attempted carjacking I emailed them 3 times with no response. The pool is nice. On the weekends it is a scene outside of put-in -bay. The pool is a free for all. Anyone can come and go as they please. No one is there watching. Location is close to the park with a lot of cool restaurants. Before signing a lease here I would really think about and look into other options. Pay the extra money for your safety. I will be taking my concerns elsewhere as management doesn’t “see” the emails or are just “too busy.”"
