Great apartment

My building is in a walkable neighborhood, close to blue, orange, silver, and green metro lines, the management is super responsive, and the amenities are great. The lounge is great for studying, having a gym in the building saves me a good bit of money, and the outdoor spaces are great when the weather is good.

Very nice

It has been a great building thus far. The amenities are great, doorman is always helpful and have had no major problems with the building. The unit is in great condition and minor fixes have been handled very quickly. Love the Navy Yard neighborhood as well.

Great Location, Horrible Mail

The apartment has a great location and views of the Capitol. Mail and package pick up was horrible. Don't plan on having any kind of meal delivery service because they will constantly mess up and not send notifications that it was received and then tell you it was not at the front desk for several days, when it is sitting behind the desk spoiled

Fabulous place to live

I love my little studio at 70 Capitol Yards. Whenever I have something that needs to be fixed--even a broken lightbulb, maintenance is there to fix it within the end of business. Management tries their hardest to accommodate any and all needs. There are some pets that were grandfathered in from previous management that I'm not too fond of, and because smoking is allowed within one's home, it can waft into the hallways (gross!) But other than that, no real complaints. I love the socials and the location can't be beat.

Ok place to live

Management isn't the greatest. Hate the pricing model they use to rent apartments, they abuse the system and would rather get new people in the apt. then keep current residents. The amenities are great and some of the front desk people are awesome!

Great area, nice building

Pros:
Nice building, good gym & amenities, maintenance is quick, management is responsive, front desk concierge, great location close to green line metro & new bars/restaurants, up and coming neighborhood, quiet area (except for game days at the stadium), community website, resident events, garage parking

Cons:
Average appliances, small water heater (I live in a studio apartment and run out of hot water in the shower on a regular basis), nothing is included in rent, very limited guest parking, lots of construction in the area right now

Overall:
I like living in the building and recommend it to others.

Reviewed by GW Law Student living at The Bixby
I love this area! We're close to metros, grocery stores, and great local businesses. It's a very close walk to parks and the Anacostia waterfront. It can feel removed from the law school, which I enjoy, though if you're new to the area it can be more challenging.
Reviewed by Washington DC Resident living at 70 Capitol Yards
I love the Riverfront so much. There are bars and restaurants, a great grocery store, plenty of events and things to do, and there's something new being built every day. The metro is accessible within a few blocks of most apartments as there are two entrances, and the population is full of pet-loving young professionals. Did I mention the Nationals stadium is in the middle of it all? I can't wait to see what my hood looks like in 5 years.

The neighborhood is largely under construction but in ten years or so it will be awesome. In the meantime, there are a lot of great restaurants, the waterfront, and the baseball stadium.
Reviewed by Washington DC Resident living at 70 Capitol Yards
The areas is constantly changing with new restaurants and bars. During the summer the the Yards Park is one of the most beautiful and popular parks int he city!

Looking forward to more grocery stores and shops opening, but I like the quiet of the neighborhood. Easy walk to the water and the Capitol.

I love walking around this neighborhood because it is rather quiet and residential. There are many parks nearby.
Reviewed by Anonymous living at 70 Capitol Yards
The neighborhood has been fantastic. Tons of construction of new restaurants and retail. Great to explore.
Reviewed by Paige, GW Nursing Student living at Onyx on First
This is an up-and-coming area of DC as I understand it. Most of the things around here are new. It's a little expensive, but most of DC is that way as well. A lot of the people who live here seem to be young professionals. There's lots of parks for dogs. It's a pretty area with plenty to do and it's quieter than other parts of DC I've visited. Not quite as cute as some other areas, but that's ok. It has its own thing going on.
