“I like the managers and maintenance people at Assembly. They are responsive, practival, upbeat and considerate. My apartment has what I need other than I wish the bedrooms were a bit wider. The noise level is predictable for an urban setting, and the insulation is good. The amenities are sweet - a rooftop space, gym, bike space, and clubroom. It has what I need. Compared to Uptown and Downtown apartments, the parking is reasonable. I”
