The spaces have all the finishes that you look for with a few things that you didn't realized you needed but now can't live without. Mirror in the TV? Nest? Digital fireplace?

I especially like how accommodating the staff is, their Manager, Heather and assistan manager Carly is exemplary at what they do and goes for the extra miles to make sure you are settled-in alright. Grady on the other hand is also anpart of their team who assures you that whatever you need help with maintenance you can count on him and he's a jack-of-all-trades kind of guy. Our neighbors are all friendly and lovely to chat with when we can, since it has been winter, we all try to get into our apartments in a hurry but I'm sure once summer comes there would probably be more smiles and greetings here and there since it's gonna be lovely weather. The amenities are always kept clean and tidy, same as their receiving are which always smells great! As a bonus, they offer you free starbucks and have parties to socialize with your neighbors occasionally. The vue has been a great welcome to us here in St. Louis and also great assurance that we are in a safe place. We have had no issues and have settled in happily. Thank you, The Vue! -Christopher & Nina

We Moved Here for the Security--We Left Because We Didn't Feel Safe…read more Our experience was very disappointing. We moved into The Vue in September 2023 and moved out earlier this month after living there for roughly three years. One of the main reasons I chose The Vue was because it was a gated community. It was more expensive than some other apartments we considered, and even though other places offered garage parking while we had to park outside here, I felt the gate would provide an additional level of security. Unfortunately, that turned out not to be the case. The gate was a CONSTANT issue. There were times when it was broken and left open for WEEKS at a time. During one of those times, three cars were broken into, including mine. There were thousands of dollars in damages caused by people attempting to steal the vehicles. I contacted management to ask whether they would help cover any of the damages, especially considering the gate had been left open for weeks. I was told they would take the issue to corporate and see whether anything could be done. Ultimately, the answer was no. I was left paying for all of the damages out of pocket and received nothing more than a sorry for the inconvenience. I later learned that other car owners and residents had similar complaints and concerns about the gate and vehicle break-ins. I understand that apartment complexes may have limitations regarding liability, but when one of the main selling points is being a gated community and the gate is repeatedly broken and left open for extended periods of time, residents should not be made to feel like their concerns don't matter. The gate gave us a false sense of security. By the time we moved out, we simply did not feel safe there anymore. The move-out process has been just as frustrating as many of the other experiences we had while living there. We were charged for an additional day of rent, along with other move-out charges, and by that point, it just felt like one more thing being piled on. The charge I have the biggest issue with, however, is the carpet cleaning. Earlier this summer, The Vue had workers come into our apartment to repair the patio sliding glass door. Those workers walked through our bedroom wearing work boots without covers on them. Our bedroom was the only room in the entire apartment with carpet, and there was repair and construction work taking place in and around that space. Now, after their workers tracked through and affected that carpet during repairs they arranged, we are being charged for carpet cleaning. That is what makes this so frustrating. We are being held financially responsible for cleaning carpet that their own workers contributed to messing up. Instead of taking responsibility for the condition their workers contributed to during their repairs, they are trying to pass that expense on to us during move-out. We had to question and fight them on practically everything throughout our time there, including repairs, concerns, and now move-out charges. By the end of the process, it felt like every issue became another battle instead of receiving fair treatment and reasonable communication. On top of everything else, the walls are extremely thin. Our neighbors had dogs that barked at all hours of the night. The night before our move-out day, we could still hear the dogs barking as late as 11:45 p.m. on a Sunday night as if they were in the next room. We could also hear cars on the street constantly, morning, day, and night. If you're considering The Vue because you want to feel safe in a gated community, I would seriously reconsider. If you don't want to constantly hear your neighbors and street traffic, reconsider. And if you don't want to have to fight over repairs and charges, reconsider. After nearly three years of living there, we were more than ready to leave. ONE STAR. Very disappointing experience.

When I made the decision to move back to STL from suburban life in IL, I knew I wanted to use Garcia Properties as my agent. I support several of their restaurants along Kingshighway and like how they truly believe in the city. The day I stopped in to start the process, I met with a young lady (forget her name) and she asked a variety of questions. She then matched me up with, Stefan Kelly. When we met, I told Stefan I wasn't under any time frame. My goal was to really find the perfect match. We worked as a team, I searched Zillow and followed other listings as well. I started out wanting a bungalow or some type of small house. Then I started looking at condos, as a possibility. Once I did that, I knew I was on the right track. Once I found the one that meet all my needs, Stefan and the Garcia team made it a reality. So, if you're looking for your first, or a new dream home, I highly recommend Garcia Properties.

I rented a one bedroom here…read more The Good: Maintenance was great. They always responded promptly and were very professional. Office staff were friendly. Apartment is in a great and relatively safe location with a decent school district. I could easily walk to work and commute within a few minutes to the grocery store, post office and doctor appointments. I had a washer/dryer unit in my apartment. The Bad: Apartments are old. The fixtures inside are also old. The kitchen area in the one bedroom is tiny. There were numerous bugs namely spiders and house centipedes. Luckily, there were no roaches or bedbugs. The Ugly: Apartment had numerous problems. The ceiling leaked water 3 different times - once in my bedroom and twice in the living room. I had to place a bucket underneath for a day or two to catch the constant dripping water until maintenance fixed the problem. I am sure these constant leaks will lead to mold problems. Luckily I moved out before I could detect any mold issues. Another problem occurred when the toilets in the building were clogged and I had raw sewage flood my bathroom. I could not use the bathroom or stay in my apartment during that time. However, management was kind enough to allow me to spend the night in one of their extra model apartments. Still, this was an inconvenience.

Before applying at Warson Village, please be prepared! Don't…read moreexpect to get any of the amenities listed on websites or what's in your lease agreement. Warson Village looks absolutely nothing like what's posted on website! The landscape in front of the apartments consist of overgrown bushes, weeds, growing above the bushes, and the so-called mulch bed is completely covered with weeds. Large sign out front post 24 Hour Fitness Center, sparkling pool, private entrance through patios, washer, dryer's available. Also another single sign on front of the property, remodeled fitness center. Fitness center has been CLOSED OVER THREE YEARS! At this point tenants are very doubtful the fitness center ever reopen. 30 apartments do not have private patio entrance as advertised, FENCES WERE REMOVED OVER THREE YEARS AGO! HAVE NOT BEEN REPLACED! Management refuses to give a date when fences will be installed, The so-called SPARKLING POOL, as of today, June 1 is still not open! The pool is full of dark green sludge water, concrete deck around pool at one time was painted white, but most of it has chipped away, never repainted. So called restroom next to the pool has been closed for the past two years. Wanted to ask a freshman will be open this year. No answer has been given, so another words know. Without a working restroom next to the pool you can only imagine what the pool looks like after a couple of weeks, Entire time pool was open last summer, the water was so disgusting due to yellow and green slimy water. Most tenants refuse to use the pool last year, without having a functioning restroom by the pool, many tenants did not use the pool because we had no idea what we would be exposed to, since no one would leave the pool to go back to their apartment complex to use the bathroom. DEFINITELY, NOT A GATED COMMUNITY! GATE DOES NOT FUNCTION! In the past seven years it may have worked a total of 10 days. Pool still not being open today, June 1st, I was very upset and out of frustration I asked the "new unapproachable" maintenance supervisor, when the damn pool be open? Instead of him understanding my frustrations and answering my question, he said, in a loud, forceful voice, no one is going to talk to me like that, he threaten to call the police if I didn't leave the leasing office. Apparently, this is the way he handles being questioned by tenants, who has every right to be upset regarding a situation, if he doesn't want to answer their questions. When leaving the complex, you have to be extremely careful, you have to pull out into traffic to be able to see past the newly planted evergreen tree by the concrete pillar. Several accidents have almost occurred. More than several tenets, request the tree be removed for safety reasons, there have been many, many close calls due to the fact, the evergreen tree is planted right next to the concrete pillar in the view was completely obstructed. Corporate office absolutely refuses to remove the tree, obviously corporate is more concerned with curb appeal and the safety of tenants. When accidents occur corporate office should be held responsible due to neglect. Especially since there's been so many tenants who have to force their concern time after time, and continue to ask the tree be removed. So beware, there's definitely a good chance your apartment for a flood, at least once, or twice a year due to blocked sewer lines along with all of the dangers. Don't expect amenities leasing office tells you about when you apply to move in, even though amenities are listed in the leasing agreement, they are still not provided!

This place has mold, mildew, fire hazards, outdated plumbing/electric, leaking sewage, flooding problems in the basement, disgusting smells, and a whole staff of unqualified people who are trained to belittle you and make you feel dumb for reporting any problems. I left several pictures on this site and ask you let others know to watch out for these people. When we first signed the lease, we were promised all of the windows and hallways were going to be renovated within a couple of months after our move into the building. When we emailed the Michelson Organization to ask why the windows were not being changed, they confirmed they did indeed make that promise but couldn't simply work it into the budget this year. Our windows flooded out during rain storms and the Michelson organization still refused to do anything. I even uploaded a video of water flooding our apartment onto youtube just so people can see the kind of slime the Michelson organization really is. Just search "The Envoy Michelson Organization 8701 Delmar" on youtube to see the video. Also, our plumbing was out on one of the bathrooms for almost 6 months due to their carelessness. As soon as we called to complain and informed them it's been long enough, Todd the maintenance guy came up to our door and continually rang the door bell for a couple of minutes until one of us answered. He's constantly putting the tenants on the defense with his passive aggressive Michelson training and never ONCE completed a job properly. For two years we just put up with this guy and allowed him to bully us in our own home until it was time for us to leave. Todd then made it difficult for us to move out and did everything he could to let us know he was glad we were leaving. And if that weren't enough, The Michelson Organization allows smoking in the building and do nothing to regulate it. I had to breathe second hand smoke from my neighbor for two years thanks to the fact the Michelson Organization was unwilling to change the rules. There are a lot of elderly people in the building and these slum lords simply do not care. The laundry facility has a main sewer line along the washing machines and it has some serious leaks. I've come home several times to the sewer pipes bursting and there being urine and fecal matter running down the walls and onto the washing machines. I've even walked by the laundry area, smelled urine, made a comment to one of the tenants, and the next day an air freshener magically appeared in the exact area where I complained about the smell to another tenant. My guess is this had to do with the fact I was right in front of the maintenance office when I made the very loud comment to another tenant, and Todd did what he does best. Throw a Band-Aid on it then disappear for hours until it was time to go home.

The apartment itself is beautiful, and is at such a convenient location! We also love having full size kitchen appliances and washer and dryer in unit. There are a couple of downsides, but nothing too terrible. I don't love that the exterior door to the building is unsecured. I would absolutely prefer it to have a lock or key code or something, especially living on a main road. The doors in the apartments don't close super well due to being painted over so many times. The biggest complaint I have is that the apartments do NOT hold heat well at all. We will bump up our heat to make it warmer in the apartment, and within 30 minutes it's freezing again. That part is a bummer because it is both uncomfortable and expensive. All in all, I would live here again. It's not the absolute greatest, but it is convenient, homey and the people are nice.
