Update 2/8/23: Avoid this apartment at all cost. They have increased the parking fees by $100+ and are charging $50 to charge electrical vehicles only for 3 hours at a time, so if you thought you would save money by having an EV, maybe not if you were to live at the Elm. Also, 3 hours is not enough time to fully charge an EV. The residents had no issue with charging stations before so I don't know why the management is suddenly creating this new policy, other than to keep nickel and diming their residents. They are also switching to assigned parking spots, even though the residents are fine with the way things currently are. Management asked us to select our preferred parking spots and emailed us hand-drawn floor plans of the parking lot that don't even match the actual layout. Why couldn't they get the actual floor plan of the building? This whole place is a mess. Hallways and units are flooding, the building literally smells like sewers and garbage, and yet the management decides to fix parking spots -- which is a non-issue -- and continue to increase fees. Extra fees for what? A decaying apartment? Original review: Imagine paying $4000 in rent every month for a "luxury" apartment and not having access to water. You can't drink, cook, or use the bathroom. This is what living at The Elm is like. They've shut down the water again to fix another leak, which happens regularly. They don't even provide the residents with containers of water during these water shutdowns, leaving us to fend for ourselves. This building has major infrastructure problems and living here has been a nightmare.
