The elevator situation is a problem. A big one. If you are someone who has issues with stairs, be mindful of what floor you rent a unit on. The freight elevator hasn't been in operation since 2022 and the passenger elevator is continually going down (for what reason we are never told, nor are we given an ETA on when it will be up). You are not allowed to use the elevator for moving so you will either be carrying your stuff up the stairs or having to schedule moving team help with the mgmt. ... The building and grounds are kept very clean and living in the CWE is a great location but the elevator situation is over the top. Read More

No elevator, management is absolutely horrible, packages get stolen often, even if it’s emergency you would wait for months for maintenance it’s just the worst.

This apartment looked great in pictures. Turns out, all the photos listed on the website are of their "renovated" units (although it seems like all they did was slap new countertops in the kitchen and call it a day, they showed me a "renovated" studio unit as well). The unit I was shown was not renovated and looked nothing like the pictures. The unit looked like it hadn't been touched since the 50's. In short, you couldn't pay me to live here, don't waste your time touring unless you want to... over pay to live in a sub par building. Read More

I lived in this apartment from September to August last year, and it was a terrible experience. The management only cares about money and ignores resident concerns. Despite submitting multiple maintenance requests through their portal, responses were rare, and even emergency calls were delayed by 2-3 days. The elevator was often out of service for days, making it especially difficult for those living on higher floors. There's much more I could say about the mismanagement, but this should be... enough for anyone who is considering to move in this "Parkway Apartment". The only positives were its proximity to WashU and the relatively low rent.

Please don't come and rent their apartments!!! The new management team is a trash!!!!
There are several reasons:

1. I smelled a very strong smell of gas when I moved in, and the first time I came to the house for maintenance and they said it was normal, but the second time I came to admit that there was indeed a gas smell, which made me stay in the room full of gas for a few days.
2. There are two elevators in the apartment, but one of them is not used all the time, and the other one breaks... down once every several days, and it takes a long time to be repaired every time.
3. I had depression during the year I lived in the apartment, so my sleeping time was very irregular, and I always stay up very late. The apartment would come to collect the garbage every morning at 8:00 a.m., accompanied by the sound of very loud trolleys. I tried to discuss this with the management, but they didn't care, it sounds like an alarm clock would wake me up every day. I said I was previously in a studio due to you guys, but now I need help to switch to a 1b1b room that may alleviate my symptoms, and they informed me that I need to pay an extra year of rent to do so.
4. The air conditioner was so noisy, like an engine sound, that you definitely couldn't sleep with it on.
5. You also can't control the heating in the room in winter, I would get hot and sweaty even when I was wearing only a pair of underwear indoors.
6. Before the lease period started, I agreed with the apartment that the lease period would end on May 16 of the following year, but when I signed the contract it showed that it would end on May 31, and I asked the apartment by email about this, and the apartment told me to sign the contract first, and that the exact date could be changed later. Finally I contacted them several times and they ignored me and made me pay for an extra half month of the room. I have evidence of all the emails and messages I exchanged, and the apartment owner is already suspected of fraud.
7. They used various reasons to withhold my deposit, I know I did leave some personal items in the apartment and some places were dirty, and I agreed to pay for it, but when I asked for a list of receipts, they chose not to respond to me. I have a problem with this as well, and I won't look at it as a drawback for now, but it makes me uncomfortable that they withhold my deposit for no apparent reasons or a list.

To sum up, don't come to rent their apartment !!!!! Read More
