So far, so good after a few days! I'm looking forward to exploring everything this building and Navy Yard as a whole has to offer. I am especially excited for the 4th of July weekend.

I really enjoy my apartment community! SO happy I moved to 1205 collection! However, there's this kooky guy who hangs out on the rooftop and is kind of annoying.

Great place, love the stadium view and amenities. Downsides are lack of kitchen drawers, parking prices, and general driving situation due to stadium proximity.

We have high standards in our community, and it is great to know you enjoy the stadium views and our awesome amenities.
