Neighborhood

Southwest Reading, halfway between Philadelphia and Harrisburg, provides easy access to major transportation routes. Rental homes and apartments are plentiful. The friendly neighbors meet at City Park for summer concerts, or at the weekly farmers' market, as well as a night market held in conjunction with First Friday art strolls. The area abounds with covered bridges and hex-signed barns, so locals love to gather and tour these historic buildings. Converted factories in Reading introduced outlet mall shopping to the country in the 1970s, and shopping options remain convenient.

Six miles northwest of the neighborhood, outdoor enthusiasts find fishing, boating, horseback riding, hiking, and boating opportunities at Blue Marsh Lake. Sports fans gather at Brewer's Bar and Grill, and for a great cup of joe and a donut before beginning Saturday's errands, locals meet up at Benchwarmers Coffee Co.

I don’t know how to feel …

I have lived here for three years. We had about four different property managers “work” here. & nothing has ever changed! Elevators smell like weed/cigs. Washers/Dryers suck and have mold in them. We pay for a private gym that barely has nothing and half the machines are broken. My bathroom had mold in it for three years and it was going to get “fixed” but it never did. Other tenants in the building have mold in their bathrooms too.

space

Is like living in a box. There’s no air vent so when your cooking the fire alarm will sound and you will get charge $50 every time. There is no closet so nowhere to hang your clothes and cleaning stuff. It doesn’t feel like a home. On the weekends when they have events there’s no parking in the garage so you got to park on the top where there no elevator so you will have to walk down floor levels

Lincoln apartments

I regret moving here ! If your looking for a nice place this is not it, the elevators smell like weed, the utilities are way to expensive, the apartments look bigger and photo and no matter how beautiful it is we are still in the city !

Lincoln Tower..

I've lived here for 7 months and I love it. It's quite. A private entrance from parking deck never have to worry about cleaning snow off of my car.. And I get that hotel feel.. Can't beat it for the price..
