Great price for the location

The complex is in a great location (uptown) and is very reasonably priced for the location. Management is super responsive and everyone in the building is super friendly. I also appreciate how secure the building is. My one negative is that it is not the most updated place in terms of amenities, but that is not the end of the world. There is also direct Katy trail access

Gables Katy Trail

Gables Katy Trail is a great place to live, it is also large dog friendly. There are frequent water shut offs for repair and garage gate construction which is inconvenient. The area is very safe and well lit. The management is responsive and helpful.

Old but nice

GKT is a complex from the 1980s in uptown. It is next to a sky rise luxury apartment so the neighborhood is great. Because it is older the walls are thicker and more insulated so neighbors are seldom heard. The rent is cheapest of most of my classmates and I would say it is in a great location.

Solid, nothing special

Great location, older building with average AC/insulation and some water problems (constantly being turned off). Great parking, very safe, no gotchas in terms of management or fees. Overall, good building if a bit older with solid management; would recommend.

Reviewed by SMU Law Student living at Knox Heights
It’s a great mix of young professionals. There aren’t a whole lot of undergrads living over here, which is really nice. I love being so close to so many shops and restaurants, but not too close, like I feel you’d be in Uptown. Knox Heights is on the strip of McKinney perpendicular to Knox, so you get the location benefits without the noise.
Reviewed by SMU Cox Student living at Glass House by Windsor
Located directly between victory park and uptown, only blocks from the tollway, Glasshouse has a premier location. The neighborhood offers a spectrum of restaurant and bar options, and the Katy Trail is a short walk away.

Great place to live. Plenty of restaurants, bars, and grocery stores within walking distance. I do not have to leave a three mile radius unless I want to.
Reviewed by Oak Lawn Resident living at No name
The location of this complex is excellent, especially if you are without a car. There are probably 8+ restaurants that are within a 7 minute walk, mostly on Lemmon Ave, Oak Lawn Ave, and Cedar Springs Rd. Walgreens, Kroger, Genesis Thrift Shop, a public library, and UPS are also a 5-10 minute walk away, so many conveniences are nearby. A post office is about a 15 minute walk away. Hardly anywhere in Dallas is as walkable as this area.

This is a very active neighborhood with a bar scene on the weekends. There are homeless people who live around here, but they have never bothered me. While I wouldn't call it a dangerous neighborhood, there is probably a little more crime than some larger complexes such as the Village.

Great neighborhood, plenty of food and shopping and easy access by walking and biking.

it is a relatively young area-everyone is pretty friendly
Reviewed by SMU Grad Student living at Knox Heights
Perfect neighborhood. There are two bars on McKinney that a lot of SMU students love. Most of the bars are on Henderson across 75 and easily walkable too. It’s a very safe area where I feel comfortable walking my dog alone at night as a girl in my early 20s. So nice to live close to the Katy Trail and less than a mile from SMU.
Reviewed by Anonymous living at Gables Turtle Creek Cityplace
The West Village area has everything a young professional needs. You're walking distance to many of the stores you have to go to the mall to have access to (Banana Republic, Brooks Brothers, The Gap, etc.) and you even have access to a local movie theater. When you throw in bars, restaurants, and a large Starbucks...you have a solid spot. I highly recommend the area.
