Cons:
- A ton of junk fees, add ons and utilities will make your rent a few hundred more than the listed price. You aren't getting a deal. Get ready to pay the amenity fee. For what amenities you ask? No clue
- “Restoration/Improvement” projects which actually just means things will be out of service and in repair for extended amounts of time
- Floors and ceilings are made out of paper, be ready to hear every step your neighbors make. Management doesn’t take action on noise complaints
- Extreme level of noise due to year long construction project that has just started. Crew will work outside of the posted construction hours of 7am-330pm which are already ridiculous enough
- Management will come up with a new way every month to enter your unit when you aren't there. They give you a heads up, and a 9am to 5pm window, and it can't be rescheduled. Something new every month
Ownerships decision to take away parking and disturb tenants by taking on a new construction project, when the existing buildings are already in disrepair, says everything that’s needs to be said about this complex. Stay away!
Property Manager Responded: Hello,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We take feedback like this seriously and want to address your concerns directly. We understand that ongoing construction is disruptive, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. We are actively monitoring the construction schedule and working with our contractor to ensure work schedules are communicated in a timely way. Any changes to posted work hours would be communicated to residents in advance.
Regarding noise between units, we hear you, and we encourage our residents to continue reporting specific noise concerns to our office so we can address them on a case-by-case basis. Our team is committed to following up on complaints as promptly as possible. We also want to reassure you that any required entry notices are provided in advance for your convenience and well-being. We understand the inconvenience of a broad time window and will continue looking for ways to improve that process.
All improvements being made to the community such as our elevator modernization and elevator buttons are intended to enhance the living experience long-term, and we recognize that the path to get there can be frustrating.
We thank you for your residency with us and genuinely want your experience here to improve and welcome the opportunity to speak with you directly.
Please reach out to the leasing office at your convenience.
Warm regards,
Michelle Lopez

Overpriced and the management company won't care about you.
Giving this apartment complex 1 star for so many reasons. I lived here for two years:
1. During the first week I moved in, the ceiling in my bathroom started to leak and eventually caved in into my bathtub. Thank God I wasn't standing under it when that happened.
2. Cockroaches were a big issue in the unit I lived in. I lived next to the trash room and saw roaches almost daily.
3. My dishwasher broke and wasn't fixed/replaced for months on end.
4. The dryer in my unit also broke and also wasn't fixed/replaced for months on end. I had to dry my clothes out on the balcony because I literally had no other choice.
5. I accidentally locked myself out of my unit once and the ONLY option was for them to completely DRILL through my door nob because the leasing office didn't have a spare key for my unit.
6. The renovations that were done were SO cheap.
It was honestly just a nightmare.

Poorly Managed
There was always dust in our apartment. We would clean and a week later, you could write your name in the dust. Also, the dust had a filmy sort of soot quality to it and it you brushed your finger along it, it would smear. Dust shouldn’t smear. This film was on all over our furniture and windows. The vents in our dining and living room were high on the walls and the ceiling in those areas had dark stains that fanned out from the vents. My air purifier filter had to be changed monthly even though the product recommendation was every 90 days. The filter was filthy every time I changed it.
A new air conditioning system was put in place in 2023 but the unit in my bedroom rattled so loudly that I didn’t want to use it. A rep from the company that worked on the installation “fixed” it but that only lasted for a few weeks before it started making noise again. I’ve heard that other tenants have the same issue.
They’ve been renovating apartments and when the work was being done on the apartment above us, they began working at 7:30am or earlier and some evenings I could hear them working through 8pm. They’ve been putting money into upgrading the apartments and the property overall but the buildings are over 60 years old. Even with all these improvements, there’s still structural problems and internal problems. If those aren’t addressed, it doesn’t matter how pretty the apartments look, it isn’t worth the price hike added to the lease costs if things keep breaking down. Overall, an unpleasant place to live.

SHADY MANAGEMENT! Don’t trust them
This is a terrible place to live. The staff members are downright rude and will lie to your face. Make sure you get everything in writing from them if you're brave enough to live here. Furthermore, if they tell you construction will take a certain amount of time: Don't trust them. They will say anything to get you through the door then treat you poorly once you sign the lease. They also have a bug problem there. On multiple occasions I went to go get coffee from their machine and found ants in the coffee. I've had packages mishandled and delivered open on the floor. The building has many crusty rooms with 10000 layers of paint just peeling way. Even though this is all bad the worst thing about this place is the SHADY management. It got so bad here the residents got together and considered filling multiple lawsuits. Some of them even did. WORST experience ever!

50/50 good and bad. mostly bad actually
free coffee 24/7. sometimes serves free food. raises rent rapidly without a head up. also dweck who owns the horizons, let their tenants know about a major construction in their units while living there, last minute. the pipes' insulation has asbestos in it. all pipes are being reconstructed while residents are actively living in their units. they up charge for little things, that used to be included. i'd say find another building not owned by dweck.
