Living at The Blockyard has been such an amazing experience! From the moment I moved in, the team has been nothing but kind, helpful, and welcoming. Adrian always has such a positive attitude — he truly goes above and beyond to help with anything that’s needed and make sure you are happy with your space. Elizabeth is also so kind and thoughtful; she made everything about moving in feel easy and exciting! Anytime I’ve had an issue, the maintenance team is quick to respond and always makes sure everything is taken care of. I also really love that the apartment community hosts fun events — it makes living here feel connected and like a true community, not just a place to live. I’m genuinely grateful to call The Blockyard home. The team here makes such a difference, and you can really feel that they care about the residents.

Lived here for a year and probably the worst experience ever when it comes to apartment living. The apartment and amenities are great but the staff have been no help since I have moved in. Office never has answers to anything. First two months had no hot water and it often goes out still. If you live on the first floor you will hear everything on the second floor. If you complain there is still nothing done. Packages aren’t allowed to be delivered to the door there is a mail room that’s a mess that you have to look through, which also has no cameras so packages are stollen all the time. Not to mention they are extremely over priced. First floor apartments flood when it rains due to the built. Suppose to be safe with the parking garage but it’s always broken and anyone can enter so there’s been multiple break ins. Yea they look nice but save your money TRUST ME!

Living at the Blockyard has been an incredible experience so far. Elizabeth, JC, Yesenia, and Amy, the property managers, are hands down the best I've ever encountered. They’re not only professional but also genuinely great people who are always attentive and quick to respond. The maintenance team, Laz and Miguel, deserve a special mention too—they're outstanding, always making sure everything runs smoothly. The property itself is stunning. The amenities? Absolutely top-notch. From the gym and pool to the club room, coworking space, and courtyards, it feels like a resort — but right here on the East Side! Plus, you’ve got all the cool spots on Manor Road just a short walk away, and Mueller is conveniently across the street. Honestly, aside from the package room being hard to navigate it’s hard to imagine anything better. If you’re thinking about moving, you should definitely apply!

Amazing, responsive, and helpful crew here at the Blockyard! They are always willing to go the extra mile to be sure we, as residents, get what we need! Great amenities on site and an incredible location. Bars, coffee, restaurants, and nature all within walking distance.
