Great place to live

Great place to live. Near BART. No parking available, but you don't need it with how convenient BART and Uber are. Plenty of good places to hang out in walking distance too, such as Kinfolx (a cafe) and Punchdown (a James Beard award-wining natural wine bar).

Forma Living

Wonderful apartment building where the staff really care. Responsiveness seems better than management from some other buildings in the area. Beautiful amenities including 8th floor lounge with multiple outdoor grills and 23rd floor lounge with a pool table and roof deck. The 24/7 gym is a great option and supplement to anyone's fitness routine.

Love Where You Live

I've lived here for just over 8 months and I love it. It's downtown Oakland (technically Uptown, sue me) and it's close to Bart, restaurants, and the highways. The building is lovely. The staff top-notch. I love the roof deck to look out over Oakland while I play pool and write jokes with my friends.

Pretty good

It's been awesome so far :) Except for neighbors who had been playing music at 3 AM in the morning, which is kinda resolved right now. But it took ages for the staffs to resolve and no compensations were available.
