A Painful and Traumatizing Experience as a Black Woman…read more I have never felt so humiliated, dehumanized, and unsafe in a place I've frequented for weeks. As a Black woman, I am no stranger to discomfort in predominantly white spaces, but this experience was beyond anything I could have imagined. My friend recently moved to Atlanta and now lives in this building. I visit often, usually grabbing breakfast at the café nearby before heading over to wait for him after his shift. This time, I needed to use the restroom. Like any other human, I took my time--handling my personal needs and cleaning up after myself. I never could have predicted what would happen next. Out of nowhere, I heard the click of a key unlocking the door, followed by an aggressive bang--a terrifying knock that sent my heart racing. When I opened the door, I was met with a police officer and two other individuals staring me down. The officer immediately demanded my ID and asked if I lived there. His presence alone was jarring. I told him no, explaining that I was waiting for my friend to get off work--in just 10 minutes. But that wasn't enough. Fearful of what would happen next, I called my friend on the phone, my hands shaking. That's when a short white man with a bald head, a tattoo on his arm, and casual shorts stepped forward. He was just a resident--not security, not staff--yet he had the audacity to treat me like an intruder. He interrogated me, aggressively demanding to know who I was, who I knew, and why I was in the restroom for so long. He spoke to me as if I was a criminal, as if my existence in that building was a problem that needed to be handled. Then came a short woman in an all-blue suit with long curly hair--equally aggressive, equally invasive. They both threw accusations and questions at me like I was on trial. It didn't matter that I'd been there countless times before. It didn't matter that I was simply waiting for my friend, minding my own business. My presence--my Blackness--was enough to make them uncomfortable. At this point, the situation had escalated to something deeply disturbing. I was cornered, harassed, and treated like I was nothing. I told them I would just leave, because what else could I do? I have never been in trouble with the law, never caused an issue, never disrespected anyone. Yet I was treated like a trespasser, like a homeless person loitering on the street, like a threat that needed to be removed. I have never been so degraded, so violated, so painfully aware that my presence was unwelcome. I own a three-story townhouse, yet in that moment, they made me feel like I had no right to be anywhere near that building. They saw my Blackness and assumed the worst. This wasn't just an inconvenience. It was racism. It was discrimination. It was an attack. My friend will not be renewing his lease. I will never step foot in that place again. And I will never forget how small, how powerless, how deeply disrespected I felt in that moment.

Latisse is amazing but rest of staff could make this a better place to live. A couple of objective reasons: -Appliances are cheap: The refrigerator is very small and can barely hold enough groceries for two people, the washer and dryer are extremely loud, and you can't have two showers running at the same time longer than 10 mins (maintenance confirmed) -Management is not the most responsive and can be rude at times -The gym is poorly taken care of: there are literally holes in the wall from people stacking weights against it -No oversight of dog owners: there's booby traps of dog poo littered around the property because they never enforce cleaning up after your dog -They force you to use an inconvenient delivery service (Fetch) for $18/month which will occasionally open up your packages and always causes delays because Amazon has to ship packages to their separate location to then have people deliver it later -They force you to also use trash valet for $30, which comes inconsistently at times.

The office employees are super sweet and very helpful. The amenities are amazing, the location is unbeatable for walking to everything and in beautiful neighborhoods. The apartment is super secure. They just replaced all of the heat/cooling on 100% of the apartments and put a brand new roof on too. I am looking forward to seeing the hallways get repainted.

IF YOU VALUE YOUR SAFETY and well-being, especially if you are a female, DO NOT MOVE HERE!…read more The gates in the parking garage move slow enough for several cars to follow in behind one person. There are no cameras anywhere but the lobby, and the parking garage and hallways wreak of weed. When I and several other residents complained to BRETT about these issues, he replied that the "same can be said for several apartments in Atlanta." Who hired this guy?! He routinely displays a total lack of empathy for literally any and ALL issues concerning residents. This past Sunday (7/15), A MAN FORCED HIMSELF INTO MY SISTER'S APARTMENT, demanded to use her phone, forced himself into her bedroom, and finally left only after her dog scared him off. After notifying the police, we contacted the leasing office. Brett displayed zero concern for our situation, refused to notify other residents of the CRIME that took place, or even acknowledge that the incident in question was considered a crime. Soon after, I found out through the few people I know in the building that THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO 2 OTHER FEMALE RESIDENTS IN THE BUILDING ON THE SAME DAY. All 3 victims gave identical descriptions of the suspect. Still, BRETT AND ELLE'S MANAGEMENT REFUSE TO NOTIFY RESIDENTS OR IMPROVE SECURITY, because "only 2" residents filed police reports. Long story short, any benefits one might enjoy from living at Elle come with a steep price, and that price is your safety. Management, especially Brett, are incompetent and come across patronizing to residents. DO NOT MOVE HERE!!! Side note: Elle has lost hundreds of dollars worth of my packages. This has happened to me enough times to where I no longer have packages delivered here. Instead of helping, Brett immediately told me "we're not liable." The issues here are endless. EDIT: Elle notified residents of "a man knocking on residents doors" only after several residents complained about management's inaction online. In the email they fail to mention that this MAN FORCED HIMSELF INTO MY SISTER'S APARTMENT AND BEDROOM. (And other resident's apartments on multiple floors) This is NOT an accurate report of what transpired and further demonstrates the management's incompetence.

Thanks for the response. There's definitely bias in who you identify as the "overall community"…read more There's too many young professionals in the building for me to believe, that audience would subscribe to not having a speaker at the pool. This is never was an issue the first year I moved in, so this is based on recent feedback. Furthermore, it's noted that you can't have alcohol at the pool. The rules don't seem reflective of the community and seem unenforceable given everyone drinks can beers, or other spirits at the pool. Just acknowledge it was overreaching and pivot. You're doubling down on something that could easily be addressed because it's not an ongoing concern.

There are not enough elevators to accommodate the traffic for all the floors. The package room for deliveries is a joke. Most of the time it is a scavenger hunt when looking for your items. Good luck having visitors arrive after the limited hours they are allowed to access visitor parking. It is an inconvenience to get your own car and drive to the garage door to let them in, and then you have to try to find a parking spot since you lost your original one. I am counting the days to move out. It cannot come soon enough.

I would not recommend living here…read more For the first three months of my lease, my washing machine did not work. It had mold and leaked, and despite multiple maintenance requests it was not replaced for months. When it finally was replaced, the machine they installed also leaked. The air conditioning also did not work properly during my entire year living here. Parking is extremely limited. If I returned around 6pm, there were often no available spots on my floor or even the floors above or below. The freight elevator was broken for months, including when I moved out. Because of this, my movers had to park on the street and the move took significantly longer. There was no timeline provided for when it would be repaired. Overall, my experience involved ongoing maintenance issues and building inconveniences that were never fully resolved.

UPDATE: went off again this morning (one day since is last went off UPDATE (went off at 7:39 this morning) about 5 days since my last update UPDATE:: went off again (6 am)!one week since last update) UPDATE, Three week hot streak of no fire alarm. Thought we'd hit a full month without it going off in the morning UPDATE: fire alarm has been going off for 32 hours on the 6th floor parking deck, this is what you can expect if you live here I've waited a long while to leave this in an effort to see how the situation would be handled, but any rational person would be just as frustrated and confounded at the inaction and lack of transparency. Make no mistake about it, if you move here, you will absolutely experience a terrifying alarm going off in the early morning hours. 100% it will happen often and these sort of issues can pose a very real risk to young children and those with cardiovascular problems. Do not let them convince you otherwise because they are not being proactive about it and it has not been resolved. The anger amongst the residents is palpable, and growing. There is no excuse for the faulty fire alarm system that has been terrorizing the residents here for the 3 years I've personally lived here...longer when I talk to other longtime residents. There is nothing they can say that justifies their inaction at this point, because it's been years. The company either: 1) doesn't care, 2) is not capable/competent enough to fix the issue, or 3) is unwilling to spend the money to properly fix it. Look elsewhere, because anyone paying a premium rent should expect premium treatment, and the constant worry of the deafening alarm going off at any hour is not premium treatment. My wife and I are not renewing, literally just because of this recurring problem, and it's sad. Years people...years and they are incapable of fixing it. Everything else is fine, the employees are great, but again, they expect a premium every month but do not give you what they promise in return. No one is perfect, but this type of treatment is pure neglect.
