I'm charged for +1,800 sq ft, but there is barely 1,200 sq ft of usable space. They include hvac/duckwork/water heater space as usable sq footage, which you can't stand up or move around in. The loft is also not usable if you are over 5'9". The fixtures/kitchen/bathrooms are very dated. We are charged $75 extra monthly for our second parking spot in a 2 bed/2 bath unit. Rent has jumped up over 10% annually for the last 2 years. The new management is not flexible or very pleasant to deal with. It's a "take it or leave it" attitude from a "luxury-ha" apartment building. There are no amenities (e.g., fitness center, pool, game room, etc.) similar comparables around the corner. It is a unique building in a great location, with good residents who feel like true neighbors in a community. But with the new management, fool me once shame on you, but I'm slowly packing up so I don't get fooled again.

Just moved in last month. Staff has been wonderful. Couldn't ask for a better location. Excited to meet neighbors at the holiday party.

River School Lofts has been my best apartment renting experience in 20 years. I love the huge, open floor plan of our unit and the natural light from the massive windows. The maintenance team has gone above and beyond to help us quickly anytime an issue has come up. Will definitely be renewing our lease and plan to stay here for a long time.
