Lovely Art Deco inspired apartment building in the garden style. The apartments are painted in an off white latex with high lighted biscuit door frames. The floors are part broadloom, and part hardwood floors, which have been sanded, sealed, and varnished to a high luster. All kitchen appliances are included. The suites have a full eat-in galley kitchen, as well as ample closet and storage space. This is a beautifully maintained apartment garden style building, with active and caring management.

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.
