TL;DR - move here, it's the best place to live in the Triangle - and 5th best place to live in America (link below per 2017 data)
Longer version: This is the place I live and renewed my lease, so that's noteworthy. If there's an apartment available - think about that - jump at it. As a research professional, I did my due diligence on every location in the area. Even the newer places (and this is the 2nd newest) pale in comparison. They're cheaply constructed and don't take livability into account.
On the contrary, District Lofts are what you would pay $1 mil for in Manhattan - I know, I'm an NYC native. The quality of the build is only surpassed by Ashley, Mikayla and Clint, the property manager, assistant and chief of maintenance respectively.
On that note, my wife and I are an interracial couple and anything you read here about racism is clearly a case of someone who got their feathers riled due to their poor finances and got all of their friends to 1 star this place - that's BS. Don't listen to that noise.
District Lofts is exactly as advertised: A luxury apartment where you really do live above it all (I live right above the retail, so can attest). The amenities are always open and far surpass most that are around here (minus the pool, which is coming in Phase III of the complex).
Moreover, the sense of community is outstanding, bar none - at least once a month there are social events in the pool hall/theater/putting range/amenity deck where beer, wine and food (catered by one of the local restaurants) are free. These aren't cheesy gimmicks, rather, a way to build a true community within the building that fosters the most desirable atmosphere.
But beyond that, you live in an extremely secure location (cameras protect, but never intrude) with a private parking deck, access to the now "number 5 place to live in America" (https://www.niche.com/places-to-live/rankings/places/best-places-to-live/) and the personal touch that make it worth every penny.
Bottom line: If you're looking for a sophisticated place to live where the staff emails you any time you have a package (for those that have experienced the opposite, you'll know how much that means), this is the spot. Plus, free concerts in the District, restaurants, shops and a theater (plus a Starbucks that's open until 11 or later).
This is city living in a small community - at a price tag that beats older, (forgive the French) crappier places. If you value value, look no further. read more
