Old Town sits across from Washington DC, along the Potomac River in Alexandria. Founded in 1749, the old charm of the neighborhood lives on in converted Colonial-era buildings which now house modern conveniences. Along Old Town’s cobblestone streets, you’ll discover an array of independent boutiques, artisan shops, wine bars, and farm-to-fork restaurants.
The farmers market in Market Square is your place for fresh cut flowers, hand-dipped candles, and made-from-scratch baked goods. The plaza is more than 250 years old - George Washington’s Mount Vernon estate was a regular vendor back in the day!
King Street is not only dotted with eateries and shops, but also nightlife and live jazz! The iconic Gadsby’s Tavern on North Royal Street fed many early presidents and continues to run as a restaurant - but also as a museum! King Street and Waterfront Parks provide residents recreational and boating opportunities along the river.

Property Ratings at Platform
Platform is a wonderful marriage of the beauty of Old Town's historic district and the convenience of community living.
I love the place, the staff is super friendly and very helpful. The amenities are great, having a working place is super convenient. Everything is clean and gym is amazing

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave a review for us at Platform. We're happy we could meet your expectations! Let us know if you need anything at all!
A wonderfully smooth move-in process with Platform. I was able to do in an afternoon what usually takes a whole day when moving to a new building. My apartment was cleaned thoroughly and I had no issues coordinating with the leasing office.

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave a review for us at Platform. We're happy we could meet your expectations! Let us know if you need anything at all!
Starting my third year as a resident here, I’m still so thrilled with my unit but getting increasingly disappointed with the community. My concerns of late are: - access to amenities, the pool hours are very limiting. Considering the state only allows pools to be open Mem day-labor day, the hours should be extended. - the garage door between buildings 3 and 4 is broken more often than not. - there needs to be more mirrors for safety in the garage. While you can’t control peoples driving, at least those of us who want to be safe, have the chance - The package room is a disaster a majority of the week - the main pool needs more umbrellas, and the ones that are there are broken. All in all, you get a beautiful apartment here at platform and the neighbors are generally fine. But it’s frustrating paying such a high premium when many issues aren’t addressed.

Been here for nearly two years now and the staff is the reason we continue to stay. Kevin, Amber, Tamara, James — the whole front office crew has been singularly incredible and make this place feel like home.

Hi - thanks for letting us know we went Beyond Expectations! We'll be sure to share with the team here at Platform!
Overall great community to live in. The leasing office is bad at communicating with residents. The maintenance staff is great. I have lived in Platform for 3 years and just renewed for another year. The rent was increased along with monthly parking fees which was annoying. We had a leak in our kitchen ceiling this winter from ice accumulating and melting on the roof. It was an eye sore for several months but it was eventually fixed and drywall repaired.

Hi, thank you for your review; we are happy to pass along your comments to the team here at Platform. Thank you again for leaving us this response! Please don't hesitate to reach out if there's anything additional we can do for you.
Great building, great location, great community. By far the best apartment building I’ve lived in and I’d highly recommend to anyone. Residents are generally very friendly.
Property Manager at Platform, Responded To This Review
Thank you for the amazing review! We’re so glad to hear you’re enjoying the building, location, and community. It means a lot to know this has been your best apartment experience so far. We truly appreciate your recommendation! Feel free to reach out if you need anything. Hope you have a wonderful day.
We love living here and the community is so dog friendly! All of the staff know the dogs by name and or pups favorite part of their day is their evening treat from the desk :)
Property Manager at Platform, Responded To This Review
Hello there, thank you for your kind words and 5 star review; we appreciate your feedback!
While I love my apartment, I am frustrated by the poor etiquette of the community members. Trash not placed into the chute, trash/smell of cigarettes in the elevators, driving through the parking lot like they are in Nascar (kids live here!), slamming weights at the gym. It is disheartening knowing how much I pay for my place. I'm worried to see how much people ruin the pool this summer. I would like to see more repercussions for community members blatantly disregarding community guidelines or social etiquette.
Property Manager at Platform, Responded To This Review
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you love your apartment and truly appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. We're actively working to reinforce community guidelines and ensure shared spaces are respected. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to the office if you'd like to discus s further.
Rarely do you find an apartment complex that truly feels like a neighborhood community, but Platform has that special something in spades thanks to the diligent work from its front office staff. We love living here!

We really appreciate your kind words about Platform! Feel free to give us a call with any other questions! We're always happy to help.
All the apps and different emails that are used to communicate to stay here is so annoying. It makes communicating and advertising difficult and as a result fewer people will take part in communicating due to the announce. There is this stupid site, there is the residence experience app, I seem to get emails from three different emails and now I don’t even know how to respond to an email because out of the three only one reaches the office and I don’t know which one it is. Then you guys want to raise rent so I’m paying to be in this difficult and useless communication system.

Just moved in but the apartment is great. Walls are a little thin and sometimes you can hear your neighbors, but other than that no complaints. Clean, updated, quiet community with a lot of amenity offerings like a nice pool and great gym.

Very nice community with people from all ages, and they have a very responsive team. The apartments are new. The only caveat is that coffee machine is down half of the time.

Good overall living situation. A bit noisier than expected and the coffee and seltzer machines are down often. People are pretty friendly and the unit common areas are kept in pristine condition

Hi there, thank you so much for your positive comments about Platform! If there is anything you need in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out to our Leasing Office. Hope you have a great day!
I’ve really enjoyed living at Platform Apartments! The staff here are incredibly friendly and always communicate well, which makes a big difference. They also host fun and interactive games and events to keep the residents engaged—such a nice touch! The location is fantastic, with stores just a short walk away and the metro only about 7 minutes walking distance—super convenient for commuting. My only minor complaint is that the building isn’t very soundproof, so I can hear my surroundings at times. Fortunately, my neighbors are respectful, so it hasn’t been an issue for me. Overall, this is a great place to live!

So far everything is pretty great. It’s quite for the most part, there’s actual community it not just a complex. I do dislike how hard some of the neighbors slam their doors, it can be annoying. But outside of that I’ve had no issues.

The Platform is a great community! The leasing/management staff has been very friendly and maintenance has been prompt in responding to any of our needs. The amenities are very well maintained and residents have respect for the areas. It's also a nice touch that there are resident events fairly frequently. Additionally, we love the neighborhood and is well within walking distance to King Street for all the community events. The only downside is the noise. It's not too bad considering you're right next to the metro and train tracks, but you certainly hear them depending on your unit location. We have not had anyone living above us at the time of this review but our we do not hear our neighbors next to us much. Overall would highly recommend this community!

I have lived at Platform Alexandria for 3 years now and have loved my experience. The front office is very friendly, maintenance is quick to resolve requests, and my apartment has been comfortable. The staff plan fun events throughout every month, many of which I have attended. The staff have provided me opportunities to meet other residents and have been great to get to know.

Awww, thanks friend! We really appreciate your kind words about Platform and our team! If you ever need anything else from us, please feel free to give us a call or stop by. Have an awesome day!
Amenities are good and maintenance is great. Apartments upon looking are nice. There are issues in the build of the apartments. Walls crack HORRIBLY and we have had issues with ants and fruit flies throughout the season. The floors are like paper and we’ve gotten complains from our downstairs neighbors just by walking. We can’t live normally or walk normally in our own home. Our neighbors have the same issue. These have been the biggest issues living here, especially with the price point of what we pay to live here. Overall though we’re satisfied

We’ve loved living here since 2021. Maintenance has always been extremely fast to resolve any issues. We would love to rate it 5 stars but the building continues to have security issues especially with the garage door being broken often.

So glad we found Platform when we did. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Amber, Tamara, Kevin, and the front office staff. They take extra care to make sure all their residents feel proud to call the Platform home.

My first year was amazing! Incredibly clean, good tenants. This year feels different, sadly. The elevators are often dirty, the package room is a mess. Tenants don’t feel like they’ve been vetted.

I enjoy living at Platform! It is a prime location with great staff, nicely appointed apartments with stellar views from most apartments. Close to airport, metro, shops, and nightlife. Love the dog friendly atmosphere, coworking spaces and clean buildings. Pretty quiet and lowkey but has nice events to get you out of the house!

Thank you again for taking the time to let us know how we did and for your 5 star review! We hope you have a great day!
I made a review in June on a separate forum detailing a less-than-stellar time with Platform as I approach three years as a tenant. Platform recommended I call their office if I had any problems. On two occasions, I have called their number and never received a call back. The first occurred after a downstairs neighbor was slamming doors in the early morning hours, forcing an all-nighter. The second instance happened after a fire alarm went off in my building during business hours. Not only did I call the office, but another resident and myself went to the office shortly after 9 a.m. only to find the lights were off and the door was locked. Furthermore, my upstairs neighbor continues to stomp at all hours of the day, despite Platform being aware of the matter. I have given up on Platform addressing this situation because, frankly, I doubt they care. I haven't even gotten to how service crews damaged a door frame and pestered me about following one of them on Spotify.

Overpriced units and parking. Better specials for renewals. More monthly events. Better patrol of garage parking in towing unauthorized cars. Better monitoring of 2 hour parking between buildings and towing enforced. Stop overnight parking w/o permit in front of building 4 and between buildings 3 and 4. Overnight concierge do more than fall asleep and glued to computer. Get up walk around. Identify infractions and place warnings or call towing.

The acoustics is horrible; from hearing when your neighbors snoring, heavy walking, sneezing, talking and urinating. The amenities, community activities, walking distance to shopping, train station and close access to interstate is a plus.
