text: This was the last place I lived in Phoenix. And by last I mean both \"most recent\" and also \"final.\" I finally made it out and will never live in that sweaty armpit, dead-end town again. However, if you're one of the sun junkies who only needs to see that big ball glowing in the sky to be happy in life, and therefore like calling Phoenix home, I would recommend these apartments. There are two main buildings: townhouses on the west end and apartments on the east. The apartments have underground parking, which helps to not step into nauseating heat in your car, and the townhouses have garages. The complex has a lot of amenities, including courtyards, grills, a pool and jacuzzi, elevators, a gym, a pet run, a community room and a meeting room. I thought the people in the front office were a pleasure to deal with when I needed to discuss something. A huge plus was the noise: my downstairs neighbor had a party one night, which I could only hear because I went out onto my balcony, and my next door neighbor had his TV up loud, which I could only hear in the hall. I was amazed at how well the walls block out sound. It's in a convenient location to Downtown- Phoenix, -Tempe and -Scottsdale, and it's also near Sky Harbor and Loop 202. There's a light rail station that doesn't seem too far away until you actually walk it. Arizona loves that Soviet-style city planning, so if you wish to walk to the station you'll need to trek across great parking lots (i.e. open paved spaces) and a wide road and it will take about 20 minutes. Some downsides: unassigned parking is a bitch and fills up extremely fast, apartments on the southwest corner get way too much sun and will make your electric bill in the hot season (as opposed to Phoenix' only other, and much shorter season: warm) pretty high even if you try to conserve power.
