1. Parking: parking is across the street from half the complex. This may not seem like a big deal unless you drive frequently and realize you have to go from the 1st, 2nd or
4th floor to the third floor to cross the bridge connecting the complex to the parking garage, then up however many floors your car may be. If you don't pay a premium to reserve a spot, you could be up as high as 6 floors up. If you live in the building attached to the garage it's not so bad.
2. Paper thin everything. I can hear the person above me talking on the phone and when it vibrates on his bed side table (which is probably directly above mine since we have the same floor plan.) it's lovely to fall asleep to...
3. Non-negotiable $30 a month valet trash fee and $54 in cable. $84 down the drain already if you don't have roommates.
4. There are so many places in South End and more flying up every few months. Sure it's cool being by All American Pub and the light rail stop on Carson, but .5 miles south (South End) or to the east (Dilworth) you get nicer real estate.
5. Construction: the property itself is getting an extensive makeover and the apartments facing the light rail have exposure to a new complex going up. Construction has been going on 6 months and I haven't even seen a wall go up yet, so this is a pretty long going deal.
**Camden South End has greatly improved since late 2014. The construction has ceased and they've made many improvements. I still think it's only ideal if you're in the main building, but I would recommend considering Camden South End.
