Brickhouse Apartments boasts a serene and respectful community atmosphere where tenants live harmoniously together. We have many pleasant surprises, one being a a stunning backyard , meticulously designed by our resident gardening expert. As our building was originally constructed as a hospital in the early 1900's, it features quaint built in cabinets, beautiful hardwood floors, and lots of windows with natural light. Each apartment has its own unique character. All apartments come equipped with gas ranges, and the building has been upgraded with modern heating and air-conditioning systems, ensuring a comfortable and efficient living environment. Furthermore our laundry room is clean, cute, and conveniently available. Community expectations include maintaining a peaceful atmosphere during the daytime hours as several professionals work from home, and refraining from hosting large indoor parties. However our beautiful back yard and spacious basement area are perfect for entertaining. We kindly request that tenants keep their apartments free from strong odors and clutter. And that if you have a cat, as many live in our building, the litter box is cleaned daily to prevent any odors to penetrate the plaster walls or beautiful hard wood floors.

The sprawling University of Iowa spills across the Iowa River and into Downtown Iowa City: the Main Library, the Engineering Library, the English-Philosophy Building, the College of Education, and the University of Iowa Museum of Natural History are all in the Downtown neighborhood. As a result, Downtown Iowa City is filled with students in backpacks walking to class. This is most definitely Hawkeye country, and the neighborhood is covered in black and gold. During college football season, you'll find many residents heading across the river to Kinnick Stadium to cheer on the Iowa Hawkeyes.
With its wide sidewalks, outdoor cafes, and numerous bicycles parked in bike racks, Downtown Iowa City is a great place to live, often topping "best" lists for livability and as one of the nation's best college towns. Shops and restaurants fill the historic architecture, and cobblestone streets add an old-world elegance to the district.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
