    Highly recommend good management and nice amenities

    5/5 Yohan M. on Mar 6, 2023

    Since moving to Hot Metal Flats, we've really come to enjoy the various benefits of living here! Location-wise it's located on the quieter end of South Side, but you can still enjoy various activities and eateries within walkable distance! The management here is great - very welcoming and accommodative to your needs. It has mostly everything you're looking for in apartment, and would recommend staying here without a doubt.

    I have enjoyed living at Walnut Towers at Frick Park for over a year. For the value, it is wonderful. The gym is often empty and the staff and maintenance worker, Bill, are very helpful. It is an older building and there are things that come along with that including some leaks, a smaller kitchen and smaller bathroom but the gorgeous view, parking, location, and quiet apartments with thick walls makes it well worth it.

    The location permits you to enjoy the Waterfront and East End. The events are fun.

    I love to stay here. Everything is so accessible especially your grocery stores, near to downtown and beautiful scenery especially in winter & fall season. I always feel safe to stay here, people are helping and good surrounding neighbors too.
