Neighborhood

The Institute Park neighborhood is named after its namesake green space. The sprawling historic park has a lake and is a popular spot for summer concerts and events including Father’s Fest and Caribbean Festival. Along with Institute Park, the neighborhood has several parks like Elm Park, another historic 60-acre park, so residents have access to plenty of outdoor amenities. Located directly west of Downtown Worcester. Institute Park is home to Worcester Polytechnic Institute and Becker College, making it a great option for anyone looking to live near campus or the heart of the city. The neighborhood also has a thriving arts scene and houses several art galleries and the Worcester Museum of Art. Influenced by the two colleges, there are trendy eateries, coffee shops, pubs, and grocers located along Park Avenue and Highland Avenue. With newly built apartment buildings and historic houses available for rent, Institute Park merges suburban and urban living.

I would definitely recommend Colton Apartments. I was not driving and access to public transportation was a must for me. The bus and train station are very close. There are many amenities within the area. The leasing staff was very helpful and pleasant to work with which is a rarity and inevitably the reason I chose Colton. There was zero unexpected issues with the apartment.

I have had a terrible experience living here and it's obvious unless a repair is an emergency, the management company doesn't care enough to repair issues or keep the building interior clean. If you have other options for living communities please seek and stay away from this run down smelly building.

Terrible place to live if you want things working, looking to not have your apartment leaking water every time it rains, if you wish to have peace from rodents or do simple tasks from your home, like washing your clothes. Awful experience as a resident in this building and with Colton Apartments.
