She was never pushy about getting me into a place I wasn't interested in. In fact, parking was so bad at one place that she apologized for even taking us there to begin with. Moving is such a daunting task, and it was made SO much easier with Sarah's help. I LOVE my new place and I probably would never have found it if it hadn't been for Sarah and RentMonster. I can't thank you enough, Sarah! You made the process painless and actually fun. (Sometime soon you'll have to drop by and see the kid experience "the zoomies" around the apartment. We both love it here. I cannot suggest these friendly people enough if you need help finding an apartment in downtown Birmingham.

The parking is not a subscribed with only about eight open spaces. It's not a problem if you come at night, but if you leave during the day, good luck. Also, most importantly, we have had no hot water for three days. We have reached out several times to no avail. Unfortunately, we have booked this place for three weeks because my mother is in intensive care. Avoid this place at all cost.

Every single time I visit my friend here, there is dog feces and urine in the hallways and outside the elevators. It's nasty and completely unacceptable for a building that calls itself "luxury." My friend has contacted management over and over again, but nothing changes. Clearly management either doesn't care or isn't enforcing the rules. Until they get serious about cleaning and holding residents accountable, this place is not worth the rent they're charging.

The apartment itself and all the fancy amenities (pool, dog spa, plush meeting spaces, courtyard,…read moregarage parking, etc.) are all very nice, but what compelled me to write this review is to compliment the office staff, Ashley, Konar, Jamie, Cassandra, Lexi, Amy and others (forgetting some names, sorry!) who are the absolute BEST at what they do. What they do is bend over backwards to help each and every tenet feel cared for and at home in this massive building where you might expect less given the size. Nope! We made lots of friends here and it was a dream to know I could reach out to anyone, and I mean anyone, who was working that day and get help quickly and with a smile. That's so rare these days, so I had to let the world know. These folks work so hard and I've heard complaints about other nearby apartments being non- responsive to their tenets. I tell them all, come to the Palmer! It's luxury living for sure, but the warmth and attention from the office staff are what take it to the next level. They should ALL get raises! Jobs took us away to North Carolina recently, but we miss the warmth and kindness of the Palmer staff. The maintenance guys are awesome, too. Go live there!

Never saw a apartment with a better deal or better location (and I looked!). The manager keeps the entire apartment building in line and manages things really well! The management is great, and so is the maintenance. Any issues were responded to quickly. The apartments are very simple and nothing special, but are clean and have all the needed amenities and the location and price cannot be beat! There is always enough parking, but since the entire parking lot is on an incline it can be a pain. Fortunately the neighborhood is great and is walking distance to so many nearby businesses that you could get away with not using a car much.

The good: cool building The Bad: SPM, going over a month without a toilet in a 1Br / 1Ba to be told oh well, needing anything done that can't be done online. The ever alluding "on site staff" who's never on site nor will answer the phone. The elevators don't work half the time. They don't pick up trash or cut grass and the courtyard looks like a landfill including the dirty syringes and all that gets tossed over and left in hopes they'll decompose into the ground??? Paris L Odom (unprofessional) it gets embarrassing to bring guests over because the grounds look so bad majority of the time. Advice: look up the properties SPM manages (Jemison flats, TJ Tower, work play lofts etc and scratch those off your list of potential apartments) if you do rent here for whatever reason get on the second floor so that it's a shorter walk up the stairs while the elevator doesn't work. In 12 years of renting I have never had such an awful experience with a PM group. Highland Capital is the owners so if you live here and want to get your word heard by someone who will listen might should call them.

The downstairs parking garage isn't as safe -- had someone dump some type of oil all over my car when I parked there once (but there's a lot of super nice cars always down there that have never been touched). I wish I could actually use the stationery bikes they have in the gym. You need a subscription to use them, which seems counterintuitive! Before I moved in, I spoke with Candace who was recently made the manager. In the past few months Foundry Yards has been bought out & the new company was apparently in over their head & super understaffed. I went point by point & addressed all the negative reviews prior to August! She took responsibility & told me how they were pragmatic in how they were addressing each of these! We discussed every instance in the reviews & I've never known a property manager to be so on top of it like that! Staff has been gone above & beyond to be professional, kind, & helpful! I genuinely feel like this place is on the up & up but with the young adult crowd I worry that staff may be too lenient with letting people be irresponsible about their pets (letting them pee, poop, & bark where they shouldn't). Pets definitely go to the bathroom in the halls occasionally & the hallway floors being carpet means there isn't much management can do about that. Overall, great spot & I hope to renew here as long as the rent stays reasonable!

I would strongly advise anyone considering Foundry Yards Apartments in Birmingham to look…read moreelsewhere. During ourtime here, the hallways were frequently dirty and poorly maintained. It was common to encounter dog waste, strong urine odors, and the smell of marijuana(actually found a bag of weed in hallway) throughout the building. On one occasion, an individual who did not appear to be a resident gained access to the building and was on a ring camera exposing himself and engaging in inappropriate behavior in the hallway. Security was also a major concern. The parking gate was often broken, allowing unrestricted access to the property. There was a shooting outside the complex that resulted in bullets striking the building and shattering windows in a nearby apartment. Noise was another issue. While the nearby train did not bother us because we were aware of it before moving in, a group of Mustang drivers frequently gathered outside and raced their cars for hours late into the evening, creating a constant disturbance. The pool was often green and appeared poorly maintained. Unfortunately, management was unresponsive to many resident concerns. When I attempted to escalate issues to corporate, I received conflicting information from management and corporate representatives, making it difficult to get problems resolved. Overall, the lack of cleanliness, security concerns, noise issues, and poor management response made this a very disappointing living experience. I would not recommend this apartment community and encourage prospective renters to carefully research other options before signing a lease.

It's a very safe area. This is a historical building! 1939- The walls are a foot and a half thick! If you get a good unit, you see only green. I'm on the second floor without a dishwasher, but that doesn't bother me. It's just me and I find it very mindful doing dishes. If you have allergies, the wood flooring will help tremendously like it did me. The ACs are powerful enough, the grounds are beautiful. Laundry onsite. Parking tight after 8pm. Cats ok no dogs. Remember that a lot of people know of this place and know of people who have lived here so the negative reviews are the exception. Not perfect but best management you'll find. You also never pay extra for electricity - flat rate. A couple of times I've used the oven for extra heat, shhh ;)

I never ever leave negative reviews, but I am absolutely appalled at the move out costs I was just…read morehit with. I lived here for four years and I used to talk about how much I loved it. In hindsight they could do so much better. Upon move out I was charged $10 to clean the kitchen drawers, $30 to clean to the fridge (which my boyfriend cleaned spotless before I moved out), $80 to sweep and mop the floor (which my friend swept after I moved out), $40 to clean the oven (mind you these appliances aren't even from this century), $30 to clean the bathroom, and $75 to clean the bathroom...just let that sink in. This apartment was built in the 1950s and I would hope a complex would clean an apartment in-between tenants. Mind you I already paid a $450 nonrefundable redecorating fee at move in ontop of two $600 nonrefundable payments (yes $1200) for my two cats to cover damages. GREEDY!! The bugs are insane - I got eaten alive by ants and I am still recovering from bites even though I moved out about three weeks ago. My boyfriend's car got hit and you can't do anything about it because the apartment complex has no cameras. My boyfriend, who is black, got the cops called on him multiple times for running around the complex and people assume he was DoorDash drive so if you're a person of color DO NOT live in this area. Plus, my packages have been stolen and I know for a fact its happen to others on top of cars getting broken in to. On the other hand Summer in the front office is very kind, helpful, and wonderful to talk to none of this is directed towards her or the very nice maintenance men. I am such a good tenant I feel guilty posting this but they already took my money.
