Garden Spires Apartments

This place is straight up trash. The amount of outside residents allowed to just hang out on the property being loud, obnoxious, annoying and rude is just embarrassing. Security is afraid of them. They do NOTHING!

The apartment is really nice; nice floors, good paint job, lots of closets, spacious living room. The hallways are nice and clean as well. The problem here are the living conditions. I didn't listen to the other reviews and thought I could live with the noise. I regret it and now I'm stuck with this lease. I've been here for a few months and according to the other residents they say it gets better when it's cold outside. Maybe that will make it livable until I leave. It's constantly noisy everywhere at all times, day and night. It's such an inconvenience to me. My job is really early. Please read the reviews and reconsider moving here. I HIGHLY regret it.

Don't rent from here unless you want to have terrible air quality. There are so many different horrible smells and nothing gets done about it. People do drugs in their apartments and the smell goes into the other units.

There are no rules in this place. Management must get paid to do nothing. People just do whatever they want. There are people hanging out in the lobby or right in front of the building which is inconsiderate and inconvenient. Security does not do their job. Google up murder on property. Apartments smell like chain smokers even though it's supposedly smoke free. People don't understand the meaning of a garbage can. Dog ?? all over the parking lot but supposedly no pets allowed. Barking all hours of the night. No point of telling anyone because nothing gets done. Can't wait to move soon.

This place looks much better. Wow! Unfortunately, you can't fully upgrade without getting rid of some of the troubling residents. From children running the halls, to people congregating around the area, cars blocking the entrance by double parking, music blasting at all hours of the night, people yelling, screaming and fighting at all hours of the night(outside and inside), doors slamming, people yelling in the hallways, smoke odors (cigarettes and weed and who knows what else), no one wears a mask, double park traffic up and down the street, food truck outside that keeps the noise well into the early morning hours(2AM) and that's just what I witnessed when I stayed over at my friend's for the weekend. Insane! I asked her how does she even sleep? She said, "She doesn't." Her children can't even fall asleep at a reasonable time. Maybe no one works or goes to school or they just don't care. It's a shame too because the building is beautiful and so are the apartments. I hope my friend can find a peaceful place with considerate neighbors.

I love it because is good area and it's close to Newark Penn station

worker and very responsible with the important things

Painting the walls, replacing the floors and giving new appliances does not improve living conditions 100%. Once the crack odors, marijuana smoke and cigarette smells go away permanently then can the environment be much better. It's difficult visiting my family member who has to still live in these conditions.

Place looks like an underground sewer . Management is rude aggressive has no care for their tenants. Big explosion caused by major renovations being done by management while tenants still occupy the apartments. These photos are not what the apartments look like now it’s really want they want the apartments to look like

The pictures on the website is a mockup of what they anticipate the apts looking like once the renovations are done. This us the WORST place to live. The are mice, roaches and all types of other bugs. There's mold on the walls. Very little heat during the winter & sporadic hot water. People hang in front of the buildings and urinate in the hallways. I would give the rating a zero if I could.

I live in the worst apartment ever im 25 and i live in a mold and rat infected apt . It is so horrible that it was featured on the news.. the water is browish and sometimes their's no water at all.. i have a 1 year and i can't have her stay here in here its that bad

The building I live in is not fit for myself, let alone anyone else. This year will be 3 years i have lived here and the way that First King Properties allow us to live in these rat and roach infested apartments is not humane. Not to mention these buildings are old and pipes are always breaking and causing water damage, leaving mold growing in the place where the water was damaged. Recently the Mayor came to visit and these buildings were on the news. The store was shut down and code enforcement gave several violations. I am currently trying to relocate to Georgia but until I can move I am stuck in this place with a 10 year old daughter! Please help....If not myself let it be someone who is in my situation or worse that wins!

Should never move here the worst place ever...this place is filthy.
