Our take

A 23-story, 320-unit high-rise that helped kick off the Channel District's apartment boom. It suits renters who want true high-rise living within walking distance of Water Street and Amalie Arena at a lower price point than the newest towers. Reviews skew positive on location and upkeep, with most friction around the garage and move-out billing.

About these pros & cons How we build these pages: we read publicly available resident reviews (Google, ApartmentRatings, Yelp, Reddit and similar) for each community and summarize the recurring themes in our own words. We don't copy review text, we don't display star ratings we didn't compute, and no complex has paid to appear or to have anything removed. Cons reflect what residents report — experiences vary. Rent ranges come from public listings and change often; always confirm current pricing, fees and policies with the property directly.
