ParkPacific Apartments Review
Living close to the school is always nice. Having parking next to the school is additionally nice.
Living next to 4-5 separate court houses is valuable and can be utilized for viewing and experience.
Be prepared for city living: it is loud all the time (cars, horns, sirens), people are always around, you are far from a Wal mart, and the parking garage is small.

Overall great!
There are some quirks that don’t appeal to my style and there are times when you can hear your neighbors or people in the hall pretty clearly, but overall it is a really good place to live while attending SLU Law! You can’t beat the convenience of living right next to the law school, especially when the weather is bad!

Pros and cons... but mostly pros
Park Pacific has the best location, if you are looking to be close to the law school. The building is literally across the street. So, it is very convenient for those who like to go home for lunch or to take a break between classes. Also, if you are not from St. Louis and don't want to worry about driving everyday or hate traveling in bad weather.
At first I thought the price of Park Pacific was ridiculous (especially for STL) but the security and residents are top notch and I always feel safe. Plus there is a doorman and maintenance staff, that have always been helpful and efficient, in my experience.

Park Pacific
Overall, my experience has been relatively positive. I rarely have noise issues. The maintenance people are always on top of everything and are incredibly friendly. The other tenants are friendly. It is nice having a lot of SLU Law students in the building. The proximity to the law school is the best perk. As for the management, I do not have a positive thing to say. From the beginning, they have been unfriendly. They are difficult to get ahold of and are incredibly unhelpful. There have been occasions where homeless people have made their way into the building and management did not inform the residents that they were squatting in empty apartments. I know numerous people who have had cars broken into them, and management said the security footage could not been seen and there was nothing they could do. We also just recently found out the building is now being rented through Airbnb. Though that is pretty normal for apartment buildings, management companies normally inform the tenants. I personally have not had to deal with my car being broken into or squatters trying to enter my apartment, so ,aside from the management’s lack of professionalism, it has been a relatively positive experience.

Overall, the apartment is very convenient for attending SLU Law. It is nice to be able to leave my apartment and be in a classroom within about 5 minutes. It is also nice living in a building with so many other law students, as it is nice to be able to hang out, pregame events, etc.
However, Park Pacific has many of the problems of all city apartments. The main thing is that you have to deal with seeing a whole lot of homeless people around the building, and the occassional car gets broken into.
With that being said, I think I am happy I chose this building. The convenience to SLU and the social aspect makes up for some of the shortfalls.

Park Pacific Great for Law Students
The Park Pacific staff has created a welcoming environment for students, professionals, and families alike. We enjoy the walkability from the apartment and the amenities (e.g. gym, doorman, covered parking). It is a perfect place to live if you are planning to study all the time. There is very little noise and you can often pet a dog when on a study break.

Park Pacific great for law students
I love living here primarily because of its proximity to the law school. It’s also walking distance from Busch Stadium, Enterprise Center, and Union Station. During non pandemic times there is also a sports bar and Mexican restaurant on the first floor. I also appreciate the garage parking and level of security. The door man also helps ensure no packages get stolen. There’s also a small but nice gym and a rooftop area will grills that residents can use. Overall I would recommend this building to anyone, but especially law students looking for convenience and other amenities.

Downtown West Reviews
The streets in Downtown generally are somewhat clean. There are also many restaurants & coffee shops in downtown, and it is very walkable/bike-able during the daytime hours.
Safety: St. Louis' reputation for being unsafe precedes it, and is a bit exaggerated. But not entirely off-base, from my personal experience. From about sunrise to sunset, speaking as a man, I am comfortable walking outside. Foot traffic is generally very light and most streets have sufficient sidewalk space. Not to fearmonger, but I have personally erred on the side of caution when it comes to going out at night. I do go out to Bar Reviews and friends' house parties once a month or so. I tend to get home anywhere from midnight to 2am. I have never seen any violence, or concerning behavior, with my own eyes. Anecdotally, I have heard from another friend in Downtown that they have seen people cruising around in a car with guns on one occasion, very early in the morning/late at night. Gunshots are not rare, but also not frequent. My personal estimate is that I hear what could plausibly be gunshots once every two weeks or so. They occur most often in the midnight to 4am block of time. Car-break-ins were the second-most raised point about safety in Downtown. I have not been the victim of a break-in myself. However, I have seen cars parked in the same spot on the street all day go from having an intact window in the morning to a busted window by the end of the school day. I strongly recommend securing garage parking if you have a car, either in your own apartment complex or a nearby external garage. Downtown St. Louis has a homelessness problem, unfortunately similar to most other major cities in the US (Austin, TX and Los Angeles, CA come to mind). The homeless & city have a tragic cycle of homeless people occupying the parks near the law school & city hall, then being cleared out by city officials when a major event is being held at or near the parks, and drifting back in, days or weeks after the event. I have seen homeless people sleeping along the St. Charles St. side of the building, and further up the street. I have never been personally accosted by anyone, but it can contribute to feelings of overall decreased safety.
