This is my personal maturation.
I waxed poetic about my…read moreZen-like reside at StoneBridge Waterfront Apartments, five years ago.
I'm still here and fortunate to do it again.
Bear with me tho. I am a word-thirsty Writer/Author/pOet, a devout flâneur, and Artist. Whew.
I view apartments as 'peopled birdcages.' Yet, and still, I reference Maya Angelou, 'I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings.'
Stonebridge apartments is located at the nexus of The Flats, Ohio City, and Warehouse District. The Superior Viaduct, is where Stonebridge Apartments is (hence the name)is privy to views of the Cuyahoga River, Lake Erie, the passages of numerous Leviathans aka Lake Freighters, views of DT CLE, the historic Red Swing bridge, and boating-sculling energies. What's not to see and love. I am an avid voyeur of such.
The area is a Whole-Azz-VIBE!
Thing is my apartment and this location on the West Bank, immersed with city views, stark urbanity and the Lake/River, provides a symbiosis of existing within and for each other if you will; a connectedness.
What I value about living at Stonebridge is my sense of safety baptized in picturesque urbanness. I'm a 'heads up' streetwise traveler. In a 'world gone mad' living at Stonebridge affords me a calm, strategically safe, multipolar existence.

Respectfully, yet, thankfully, this is not the Burbs. No, 'get off my lawn' types here.
The constant evolution of the area, the affordability, location, and easy access to the best of CLE east & west are thoughtful pluses.
The deets : I rent a 2 BR, 2 BR with ensuite WD, and balcony. Sweeeeet.
The campus is clean and well maintained. Close to public transportation, walkable to 2-3 Libraries, grocery stores, restaurants, and of course food delivery services and my treasured InstaCart.
Ashley Ineman, the Property Manager, is unquestionably the tour de force of this community/campus. She espouses and supports a communal ethos. Ashley, listens and is attentive to us-the community. She is stellar!
The maintenance staff (Matt, Vic, Tim, Singh) are professional, friendly, and efficient. Oleg, persons the office, and is a charismatic welcoming force. All strive to make the Stonebridge community, home.
Yes, I considered other spots in DT CLE, even Cleveland Heights (my fav). But, the views, the conveniences, the Urban energies and overall comfort with the area and Stonebridge itself, would be unmatched in another location. IJS. My Yin and Yang is here.
The Con: Parking.
Find your self ... here.
