    Downtown Detroit

    These apartments are in one of the best locations in the city! Kermit the Frog floats by our…read morewindows here on Thanksgiving morning, and it's a block and a half away from Campus Martius Park. 2 blocks away from the Coneys, 2 blocks from the Boll Family Y. 13 minutes from Comerica Park, Ford Field, and LCA (if you are like me and have the top speed of a sedated slot!) The amenities are pretty good, the maintenance staff are fantastic, and the guys working in the garage are incredible-they go above and beyond every single day! The property managers are quick to help and provide necessary information. The building itself is clean, well maintained, and about as safe as one can get. There is a reason why my husband has lived in this building for over 20 years now, and it's because it's an excellent place to live!

    Make no mistake, this is a Village Green Apartment now. All reviews, which were mostly positive,…read moreare really null and void after February 1 of this year. If that doesn't scare you away, then please read on. I have been a resident of Lofts of Merchants Row (LoMR) for 9 years now. Nine years ago, Detroit was a completely different city than it is now. It really was dicey in most areas. But in the middle of Woodward was a luxury development that the Schostak Brothers had the insight to build. And things were mostly good, and we had many long-term residents. Other than the longtime manager, who is serving time for pedophilia in the UP (and also a Village Green alumni), we had a community-based living arrangement. Fast forward to this year. In February, we were forced, and were not even told about, the Schostak's decision to bring in the much, much discounted and classless company, Village Green. My heart sank when I got the news. They have a lower rating than even Spirit Airlines (2.1) and they proved worthy of that mark when they arrived. We were without management for seemingly a month due to the horrible transition from the old to new management. When they finally did get it together, we couldn't even pay rent online for another couple of months! The complex is a very, very different place now. Here is what you can expect: * There is very little security. The back door is propped open often and the fire door is always held open by a bungee. * The windows are original windows and are single panes, leaded glass. Also, they are VERY drafty. * The noise off of Woodward is awful. I could be sitting 10 feet away from my TV, with a soundbar, and not be able to hear it even when maxed. This is a result of both terrible policing and the nearly non-existent sound resistance of the windows. * Maintenance now has their hands tied due to the inability to get much needed repairs completed by ownership. I have not had cold water in my kitchen sink for months and we went over a year before getting out windows cleaned. Again, cheap and classless. * The hallways now smell like a Turkish bazaar with the hallways REEK of marijuana smoke daily. I was recently asked by a client I was meeting with in the morning if I had smoked a joint beforehand. All I did was take the elevator. * As for the elevators, they are down A LOT. I have had friends and neighbors stuck in them multiple times. The parking garage has had BOTH elevators down for extended periods of time, thus no one being able to get to work. We have doctors, nurses, and emergency personnel in the building. They are terrible. When the contract for TK (awful elevator company) was set to renew, the old management assured us that we would get a better company. VG and the ownership chose the cheap route and kept them. It has been as bad as ever to this day. * What used to be an open door, friendly policy in the office has turned into an isolation room. Probably because of all the complaints from residents. They are equally unfriendly. * The garbage is no longer picked up on weekends, so by Monday the stench is overwhelming when using the back elevator. This lasts for days. Again, cheap and classless. * The garage staff are absolutely wonderful. They are always timely, efficient, and friendly. The only caveat, other than the price, is that your guests will not be allowed to park there if they have a pickup truck. I can recommend a few good places to live if you are downtown: * For high-end living, you have Water Square or The Vinton. * Bang for your buck would be the Alberts. * Convenience to the theater district, you have Woodward West. * For budget conscious, I recommend the Ashley. Whatever you decide, I would decide against Lofts of Merchants Row.
