Nice Apartments but overpriced and poor management
The apartments inside are really nice - spacious, nicely designed, huge closets, nice bathroom.s
If you're on the side near main street, the train is extremely loud. It comes all day and during the night.

Expensive but excellent location.
Overall, we've been very happy with the property. The management is very communicative and nice. The gym is excellent, and there are workout and yoga classes weekly. Great outdoor spaces (pool, grills). The maintenance is also wonderful - very responsive and thorough.
Downsides: They haven't fixed the gas firepit in a very long time. The removed paper from the business center. The construction quality of the building is poor (walls and ceilings are thin); however, this seems to be an issue throughout 9th street apartment buildings. Lastly, there have been multiple fire alarms throughout the year.
I know the downsides sound bad, but most of them are what you will find anywhere on 9th street. At the end of the day, this is a very nice building and my wife and I have been very happy. We plan to stay two years.

Great except for management
I love being near the rest of the Fuqua student body but still a bit removed when I want quiet. The management has been very difficult to deal with, but that is rarely an issue. The maintenance team is very responsive and that matters way more.

Beautiful apartment building, can be a little noisy
BMain is a great apartment building, it's very modern and new with spacious apartments. There are also residents from other graduate schools as well as non-students. The building feels very much like an adult living situation, not like a dorm.
However, the train goes by right across the street which can be noisy, so be aware of what side of the building you get an apartment on. There have also been a few cockroaches :( but the building is pretty good about sending someone to spray.
ALSO, you can easily walk to Fuqua, it's only a 25 minute walk and you can cut through the beautiful duke gardens.

Best place on 9th St
BMain is the best place to live in the Main Street area, out of B9 and S9. Amazing property for the value. Wuiet complex and close enough to the 9th St area social scene (approx 3min walk to S9, 4min walk to B9). Neighbors are very respectable and management is friendly and responsive. Common areas are well-kept and maintenance is extremely responsive and friendly.

You can get to the school by bus (45 mi) or by car (10 min). Carpooling is very commom.
