The Griffin

I’ve been a resident at Griffin Apartments for some time now, and while the location and layout have their perks, I’ve had ongoing concerns regarding safety measures and practices on the property. I previously attempted to address these issues with the former management team, but unfortunately, nothing was done to resolve them.

That said, I’m cautiously optimistic with the arrival of the new management team. A special shoutout to Kita, the new property manager—it was genuinely refreshing to... speak with someone who took the time to listen. Thank you, Kita, for your professionalism and for making space for resident concerns. I’m hopeful that this marks the beginning of a more responsive and proactive chapter for the community.

They broke into my Porsche! This is what happens when you move here! I pay $65/month to park no other parking options. Over 10 cars broken into and the complex is doing nothing! They told us we would have security, where is the security?! Nowhere to be found. We have cameras and were told they don’t work. So basically it’s not safe here at all. There’s always an email about something security wise happening. I will be breaking my lease and leaving ASAP!

If I could give zero stars I absolutely would provide zero stars and warn everyone to never move in this place. Trish the leasing agent and Megan were the only thing holding the walls up to this place. I have stayed here 10mths and my car has been broken into 3x. We pay $75 per car and I have two to park in the garage that has cameras at the gate and also two security guards on duty and I still got broken in to 3x. Having to pay for repairs 3x and there is nothing they will do to help you it’s... just that they are not liable.

Now trying to get comment lease is up I put in notice but I’m within my 60 day timeframe all I asked was for them to let me move without penalty or help with the repairs for my car. That was a no and you are responsible for all payment with reletters fee and so on and so on. So add on more money is like a slap in the face.

in the middle of moving which you pay movers by the hour and the elevators go down. 1st attempt last night and then again this morning. So my movers are stuck waiting for the elevators to be repaired because I stay on the 4th floor….

Would have been gone and they also want to charge me for the days I’m still here and not able to move . This is insane and truly an inconvenience and no one cares what they make the renters go through just give them their money….

Imagine barbecuing in the car yard and you drop a pc of meat and not one but two rats as big as possums coming to get the meat and not even scared of humans .. there were roaches in the stove where the clock was even with pest control every month we are charged for that as well
I am over the whole experience!!!!!!

I would never ever advise anyone to move here this is not a luxury experience Read More

The chances of getting shot (yes, gunshot) increase substantially. Someone was shot last week (7/11 Ross Ave next door). A stray bullet went through a residents window. I don’t have the time to name all the shootings. This place is next to the busiest drug corners in downtown. Crime is high and gangs operate nearby. Stay away.

Also, a lot of my neighbors are dirty and lazy (dog poop in hallway, throw up in elevator, disgusting stuff). The hallways always smell so bad. They towed my car by... mistake bc they’re always feigning for cars. They towed my friends car by mistake. Just forget about visitors. Burglary’s. I could go on and on. Read More

The staff is amazing. Roslyn is very professional, Eric is great and really personable. Stephanie is everything! The maintenance staff is ON POINT. Very few problems but when there is a problem they fix it fast. They go above and beyond for the residents. Security is pretty cool too. I feel secure here. The views are fabulous especially at night! I love my home and I love being home.
