Despite the benefits of smart home features and the prime location, residents have raised concerns about maintenance and security.
Security and Maintenance
"Communication is hit or miss, garage is always broken or stuck, tons of package theft, lots of car break-ins (I know of two people by name who had their cars stolen within the year), resident events are last minute and only have 20 spots for hundreds of residents, no valet trash or Nest thermostat even though it claims to be luxury, hallway floors look dingy, often pet waste in the halls, local management makes it a pain to get rates matched, people have started hanging out in garages which is weird, there’s no visibility in the garages when turning, the list is long." – Verified Renter, Apartments.com
Management and Building Quality
"Beautiful complex with amazing amenities. Terrible management. Unless you have Amazon Prime, you can expect 4-5 business days to get any response from management." – Verified Renter, Apartments.com
"Like all newer apartments, the walls are a little thinner than I would like. When my neighbors take hot showers, I can hear the pipes knocking because the building was built with them too close together. I can hear my upstairs neighbor anytime they walk around, and I can hear my neighbor’s dog barking sometimes." – Verified Renter, Apartments.com
A significant maintenance issue was reported in November 2024:
"I faced a major mold issue in my apartment during my living at Gallery, my car got jacked twice while it took more than 3 months for management to fix the gate, and that smell of garbage all over the building just drives me crazy!" – Verified Renter, Apartments.com
