Security is Useless

I originally came here because they have on site security. But, getting on-site security to do anything about the young kids, strangers roaming at all hours of the night, or criminals is a joke.

The person living directly above me would run their stereo at full blast with a SUBWOOFER and management did not care.
I love the location and apartment itself but it has poor sound insulation and inefficient management.

Fantastic!

Beautiful apartment in a building that feels like a hotel with neighbors who care about their community and friendly staff. Hardwood floors, wood cabinetry, tons of storage space tucked smartly into nooks and crannies. Couldn't ask for a better arrangement.

Great Location/Very Safe

1280 West is in a fantastic location. Great high rise with easy access to 75 and 85 as well as GA400. Right across the street from the Marta station. The building is a bit older than the others around the city but the price is unbeatable. $1150/mo for rent for a one bedroom is unheard of for a high rise in Midtown Atlanta. Gym is decent, pool is nice, guest parking is limited. But I am two blocks from Crescent and right across the street from the Woodruff Arts Center. Floor to ceiling windows. I'd highly recommend to all of my friends.

Good location, but building needs some upgrades and repairs. Quicker response to apartment issues like repairs. Building needs a plumbing rehaul. Wish it had more closet space. Storage unit downstairs is great. Needs more visitor parking! Great security guards!

Very walkable and you have everything within arm's reach.

Nighttime is very dependent on where you live, but there can be a lot of noise from street racing and other safety issues.

That being said, northern midtown is a great area and allows an easy commute to campus.
Reviewed by Emory Goizueta Student living at Yoo on the Park
A lot of places to go, a lot of restaurants and supermarket walking distance.

The complex is less than several blocks shy of many of Atlanta's top-rated cafes and restaurants. Its also close the the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, so that's very cool. Grocery store is nearby as well. It's a bit of a stretch to walk to the College of Business and further into GA Tech campus (7 blocks or more) but because of the distance not a lot of loud college students come here, so the building is always quiet. That's not to say there's no social scene here, the area surrounding plus the complex's activity room provide fun meet-up spots.

I love living in midtown - I can easily access great restaurants, my job, and my friends. Where I live, it is very safe. A few blocks down is a little seedier. I love living right by the park. There are relatively few vagrants. Cons, parking is expensive here. Amenities are kind of sub par. Major pro is no driving! I fill up my car maybe once every 2 months. I don't have to take many cabs. Close to Marta if I need it.
Reviewed by Atlanta Resident living at Arts Center Tower
I love the location of this community. It is directly across from the Arts Center Marta station and has several restaurants that are in walking distance. The Marta station offers a free shuttle to Atlantic Station which is a 5 minute ride to great shopping and dining.

Best location in the city....Piedmont Park, concert venues, amazing restaurants..not much else you can ask for. Safe neighborhood and very dog friendly!
Reviewed by Atlanta Resident living at Marq on Ponce
Midtown is better than it used to be, but still not a paradise of safety and contentment. One of the most (if not the most) walkable areas in Atlanta, there are at least three MARTA stations (North Avenue, Midtown, and Arts Center) to get you into the area, lots of bus lines, and the Eastern Beltline dividing us from ViHi. Great restaurants, some shopping (higher rents are driving a lot of places out), beautiful Piedmont Park - all great things.

Extremely LGBTQ friendly area, especially at the corner of 10th and Piedmont. More skewed towards gay men than lesbians, though.

Crime is something of a rollercoaster - things will seem great for a while and then there'll be a few armed muggings or house robberies and everyone freaks out. Pay attention to your surroundings and don't be afraid to call the police if you feel unsafe! Basic advice for anywhere in the city, really.
