The place tends to be fairly quiet and has lots of places to study. There is a trial to go walking, running, hiking, dog walking, etc practically on the property. The staff are nice and good at answering questions or listening to concerns.
The management company has been having difficulties with trash removal, parking, packages, etc. Overall these issues are pretty typical but I think they have either been very prolonged issues or they are not very quick at finding solutions. Also they make a lot of promises that aren’t exactly kept as described(ex: I moved because of the security features. Turns out they don’t work right and they can’t fix it so they are getting rid of it. Another ex we have a nice gym. This is true but you have to pay separate for it!).

Great Location

I love that there are MANY medical students that live in this apartment complex and it's less than a 10 minute walk to campus and 20 minutes to the Short North, which is super convenient. The pool is included, but the gym and parking are expensive and other utilities are expensive as well. The apartment feels secure.

Founders Review

Apartment is very nice! Lots of study spaces and very easy and safe walk to campus!
It is great to live in a building with many other med and professional students.
The office is not very responsive for the price that the residents pay.

Property Looks Nice from Afar, but Terrible Every Way Else

This apartment complex has been plagues with problems from car thefts, burglaries, break ins, to even cocaine being found in the main lobby, The management is largely unresponsive and has hired private security which has been essentially useless. My car's wheels were stollen from their garage that I pay 100 a month additional to park in. They have yet to do anything significant about it. There was also someone illegally living in an empty unit and stealing residents' packages as well as bikes from the bike room. Though it was built only 2 years ago, it is already starting to show its age and is terribly overpriced. The gym is an additional 45 a month though it was advertised to be free when I first moved in. I regret living here.

The apartment complex is new, so the amenities are great! A new coffee shop/bar and gym just opened up in the building, and there is a pool. I like how close I am to the medical campus, and the area feels safe when I walk there. The rent is expensive and things like Internet/utilities/parking are not included, so that is definitely something to take into consideration.

Founders Review

Nice, new apartment complex that is very close to the medical center (~10 minute walk). Lots of other medical students live here. Some great amenities like study spaces, pool, lounges, etc. It is pretty expensive though. Need to pay for parking, utilities, internet on top of already high rent. Would be tough to afford this living by yourself, I make it work by splitting a 1 bedroom with my SO. Have a gym on property, regular price is 60/month residents get 45/month. Some break-ins, tire theft, car jacking etc have occurred in the garage. Apparently security is buffed up now but we will see how it goes.
