“It’s a great building in a very walkable area. Very convenient neighborhood with everything you need. The building is secure and visually appealing. The apartments have great views but are small. You can hear noise from anywhere in the apartments at any given time. As long as you’re okay with that, the place is fantastic and a great value.”
