Gables City Vista

Great location; good value

Great living here + maintenance requests are answered promptly + concierge is great.

In terms of amenities, the courtyard is a full city block, and that’s hard to beat.

For a studio in Mt. Vernon, it's a steal. However, the building is not as new as others in the area. It's a good trade off for price, since the building is new enough and in a great location.

It's great to be able to afford to live alone for a low price in a fairly pricey neighborhood. I haven't had any issues with the building itself. The main problem is amenity-envy of the buildings in the area with rooftop pools and brand new gyms. The location is great and it isn't too far to get to a metro station.

I love the apartment. It is a short bus ride away from campus on the Circulator or the metro, and is within walking distance from a lot of restaurants. Also, it is right above a 24/7 supermarket which is a huge bonus.

There have been so many great restaurants and shops opening right below! I recently moved away, but as soon as I did many new places have opened up. I'm right back to that neighborhood every time I want a great cup of coffee or to workout! Highly recommend Mt. Vernon!

I've been at Gables City Vista for less than a year but so far love my experience. The apartment is quick to respond to service requests and always lets you know when they've been in the apartment. My apartment is spacious and has lots of light, and is a good deal for this rapidly growing neighborhood.

As the owner of a 75 lb dog, my biggest concern in an apartment is that I can safely walk him at any hour of the day or night, and that he'll have enough space. This apartment building has that - plus great front desk people, proximity to both fast and nice eating options, and an easy commute to downtown.

The location of this building is great. There are many restaurants and a 24 hour grocery store right downstairs. There are also two metros nearby. The common spaces are very nice. There's a large, private courtyard. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious, but sometimes the layout and the placement of support columns is strange.
