This property is a great size. Not to big, quite. Nice pool and jacuzzi. Its clean and gated. I hate parking on the street! Lol The apartments are big with good storage, that's a plus for me... Over all I would recommend this property to my friends.

Steps in the memory of life.
A place mixed with many different cultures, and ages raging from children to the elderly. I've been here for years ,and have met countless good people. Management on staff at this time is incredible and very personable and pleasant. Neighbors show up at your door to share kindness and food.
