Great luxury apartment in Knox neighborhood, close location to campus

While this building is outside DPS and free lyft zone, the bus stop and metro are very close.

Great management, lots of USC students, convenient location for bus or train. Must have street smarts as area can be rough sometimes, but no more than any other downtown.

Origin Apartments - Walkable Lake City Apartment

LOVE the unit, building amenities, staff, responsiveness of maintenance, etc.

The building is 30 floors tall and has all the amenities of a high-rise. The price is reasonable for a mid-tier luxury building. Gym is a little small.

I lived at both the 8th floor and 9th floor apartments in the 3 years I was there. In just those 3 years, the quality of the place went down. From trashcans by the elevators and routinely being cleaned to no trashcans by the elevator at all. Half the dumbbells and equipment in the gym missing. In the three years I have been there they were already on their third property manager. The garage doors and elevators regularly breakdown. They only have one maintenance person for the whole building. The property has good spacing and is in a good location if you need or want to be in downtown Baltimore. Some of the people on my floor were good too. However, at this point most of them are leaving if they have not done so already. Overall the biggest issue seems to be poor management from my perspective. When my heater broke out during the holidays in November 2023 when it was freezing cold and it took two weeks for my heater to get fixed, the Regional Director sent me a $100 discount on the rent for my troubles. I couldn't tell you how disrespectful that was. I took them to escrow, prorated the rent by the two weeks I was without heat and terminated my lease.

Great place to live with many amenities and an excellent walkable community!

This is a very nice, newer build. There are many different floor plans to choose from, and nice amenities, from secured parking to a gym to a rooftop space. This building is pretty expensive, but they offer MFTE units, a program which is available to university students, decreasing the cost by several hundred dollars per month. The management and maintenance is very responsive, and they throw multiple events for residents throughout the year. There are several bus lines right outside the building which run right to campus or to the light rail. The building is extremely pet friendly, and has an outdoor dog run on the 2nd floor. My primary complaints about this building are that I get limited sunlight during the day, and that I have an unsavory neighbor or two (although you might get that anywhere). Overall, if you are an older student who would like to be a bit further from the chaos of campus, or if you have a dog, this is a great building.

Just like every apartment in LA, there are good and bad things. The apartment itself is nice. Living downtown has its own issues (besides the high rent) that don't really apply to the apartment itself. It's only about a 15 minute commute to school which is nice but there aren't many things you would want for your life outside of school in this location. Things like Targets and grocery stores are few and far between. The management of the building is friendly but not overly helpful. The service staff is very quick on work orders if there's a problem in your apartment.

Knox is fantastic with a 3-4min drive or 25min walk to SMU. Awesome restaurants. Everyone has a dog. Warning on the elevators = they are awful and seem to always have an issue.

Knox Heights is clean, really safe, and in a great location—I’m right down the street from the Katy Trail and a 5 minute drive to the law school.

It’s a nice apartment

Quiet and established community located in driving distance to everything you would need.

They are coming back from TERRIBLE management. They are a lot more responsive and are continually improving their amenities. They are literally on the RAIL for any sort of commute and a walk away from great restaurants, bars, and a few gyms. The gym gets the job done. You have covered/secure parking. The lounge gives you a great view of downtown and the pool is a nice area for small get togethers. You are in the middle of the city and won't experience traffic. You will be able to get anywhere easily from this place! Love Midtown!
