Those looking to be right in the center of all the action should check out the stylish apartments at The Gramercy. These awesome studios may be a bit more expensive, but they’re located in the heart of the Central Business District, close to Fountain Square, and steps away from fine dining, nightlife, and entertainment options. The Gramercy  boasts two fitness centers, two clubrooms, a heated rooftop pool, a basketball court, and a community library – and those are just a few of its many coveted features. Last but not least, the staff hosts parties for their residents! It’s no wonder these units were voted among the best apartments in the Tri-State Area.
