"This place is amazing!! They helped me every step of the way to get my new apartment!! They didn't mind me blowing up their email or calling they said that is great shows that you are interested!! Thank you all for helping me get my new apartment!!"

"Rachel the building manager is a great one could not ask for a better building manager! Very clean inside but the building does have tenants and guests that do have a habit of emptying their vehicles out and leaving trash on the ground. I do feel sorry for the lady that has to clean up after them. The noise level has improved greatly."

"Management awesome, apartments best in class for the price, tenants and industrial businesses the only problem. We have loved out apartment, and half our neighbors. There’s a culture clash here between young professionals and people who are from other cultures using tax dollars for rent. Neighbor complaints that the peace on the street has been disrupted are not too overstated. The halls are the same. Always hear people screaming and yelling and kids crying. Try to get an upper floor, they seem more quiet because they’re away from the 3 bedroom townhouses. Even the maintenance people comment they love coming into our welcoming place because others are dirty and rude in their places. That includes the landscaping business who runs chainsaws even on Sundays, and constantly kick dirt on our balcony due to their truck antics. Fans always heard from the foundry across the street. BUT THERE ARE LOVELY THINGS, such as live outdoor music and good food at Garver feed mills, right on bike trail and wooded walking paths along the river, city parks with managed prairies and so many flowers and wildlife (always hear so many birds from our deck), Olbrich gardens and lake Monona just a 5 min walk away, close to East side shopping, beautiful safe neighborhoods surrounding to walk the dogs. And 5 star amenities. Even raised bed community gardens. Only thing missing is a salt water pool and more extensive grounds to make this place perfect ... beyond the neighbors. They’re not bad, all seem like nice friendly people, they’re just accustomed to a louder and less disciplined life than we are."

"I live across the street from this complex, and since it opened, it has been nothing but awful. Frequent fights and loud music can be heard at least once per week. Police have been called to the neighborhood multiple times due to disruptions. I don’t even live in the building and I’m glad I’m moving."

"I love across the street from this apartment and it’s a horrible nuisance. There’s a loud argument in the street from the tenants (sometimes they’ll be yelling from their balconies) pretty much every other day. People will have their cars parked with windows open playing the loudest possible music. They’re awful neighbors and I can only imagine how much worse it actually is inside the property."
