We have lived here for about a year and they have maintained some of the unique qualities of why we were attracted to CBC, but are starting to lose some of their appeal, thus the mass exits from long standing residents PROS: The workout facility is amazing! Classes, personal trainers, updated equipment, an indoor pool , jacuzzi, and steam room which is great during the winter. The locker rooms need to be updated and the tanning beds never work, but the staff and other amenities at the health club facility more than make up for it. They deliver packages to your apt. And your dry cleaning on a daily basis. That is a great perk. Covered parking, but getting a "good" spot is always a challenge. It is a hit or miss thing. The security is on staff 24/7 but I believe they are sold as a concierge service. They are friendly and helpful. Their is new management so cannot comment because of the high turnover of the staff. Half of the apartments do have views of either the lake or the city, which is nice. In the complex is Sash salon and Urban eatery which is a frequent dining and hair salon for most residents...both are awesome CONS: The price of the apartments are much higher than any other place in Minneapolis. They bank on the location, but the units are very dated with basic bathrooms and kitchens and tile that is 20 years old. You pay for the view and not the interior of the units. Unhappy staff and people turnover like crazy. A disgruntled atmosphere among employees. Constant rule changes and cost increases occurring that are driving long term and newer residents away. COST driven management that is at the expense of the residents.
