Find the leprechauns and redeem for gift cards). They even have a business center where residents can use desktop computers with printing or reserve a conference room. The gym also looked amazing--there's a separate fitness room where they have a virtual digital fitness trainer that you can sync your device for. Parking is also free (1 car per apartment unit). It's also walking distance from the Richmond Heights Community Center and Library!

Overall, I enjoyed my 3 years of living in these apartments. The management (Stephanie & crew) and…read moremaintenance (Jerome) were friendly, professional, and helpful. The building has a lot of great amenities and an awesome rooftop. The location was mostly decent but seems to be getting better as more businesses are opening up nearby. Security was never issue for me here and I felt safe on the premises of the building. I removed a star because of a few major issues I had with my first apartment there, although management was quick to remedy them. Also, most fixtures and furnishes are good quality, however the 'wooden' floors scratched so easily I was afraid to do a lot on them. If anyone is looking for an apartment in this area I'd recommend it. The price is right, the apartments are nice, and management is the best. I have attached photos of the view from my apartment as well as the apartment itself right before I moved out.

The apartments are in large and very high-end in regards to flooring, lighting, granite countertops with spacious rooms and balconies available! It is a very secure building with underground parking and exceptional views of the sunset and sunrise. It is literally one block from the heartbeat of the Central West End! There are monthly social events and a wonderful clientele! If you have a dog there is a bath/grooming area, coffee/tea bar and truly exceptional rooftop with hot tubs, Weber grills, 360 views and tons of space inside and out with games, TVs and more!! Highly recommend for so many reasons!!

Apartment hunters in STL have a huge task in finding a great place to live. Let me save you some…read moretime and tell you to take a hard pass on this place. Over the past three years this complex has taken a huge dive down into the level of unacceptable conditions. It appears they will just about rent to anyone just to put people in apartments without any regard for adjoining tenants. The tenants above us were so noisy it was a contributing factor to our decision to get away. It was constant noise. If you make the mistake of choosing this place you will be alarmed at the apathy coming from their office personnel. Any questions we had was a bother to them. At one time they tried everything except the right thing when we were dealing with an extremely noisy bathroom fan. Once they even bent the blades to "fix" it. They never did fix our ice maker in the whole time we were there. Security is a huge issue as we were alerted to kids kicking on doors during the night. Unattended children walking onto private patios was a problem. A gate at the back of the property was never locked allowing strangers on city streets to walk right into the complex. Dumpsters were constantly overflowing and infested with raccoons. Watch out! Don't get bit. The property managers along with the office manager and staff are completely indifferent to your concerns and appear to try to get by with the minimum amount of work. In summation, save yourself the time of going here to visit or renting here. Some reviews from other apartments seem like past tenants were just getting back at their former landlords. THIS is not one of those. It is an HONEST review of what we put up with. We never knew how could it could be now that we are in our new place. These people have it figured out here. The people at Park Forest -- don't have a clue!!

While living at Steelyard, my unit faced the side of the street near the middle school and the noise coming from the schoolyard was very intense. Every day at 9 am and 4 pm I heard a symphony of busses reversing into their respective spots in the parking lot as they made the "backup beep" noise. I was not informed of this when touring the unit, but after moving in, many of my neighbors mentioned the same issues. I am a very sound sleeper, but was not able to sleep through this. I also work from home and spend the majority of my day on virtual meetings or phone calls. My managers mentioned being able to hear the background noise to me more than once. Additionally, you will frequently hear gunshots on the weekends followed by an onslaught of sirens. Marijuana scent is rampant in the halls and elevator shafts. The cameras in the lobby and mailroom do not work 100% of the time, as I have chatted with the police department in the lobby quite frequently about crimes that take place on the premises. I have also had multiple packages "lost", that I can only assume were stolen. Wifi is ghastly slow and you will pay a very large fee to have it tacked onto your rent along with other amenities that are included in most rents (or left up to the tenant to provide for themselves separately) as per industry standard. For the amount of money I paid here to live in such a small, one bedroom unit, I expect much more. However, if you don't scare easily, you may be attracted to the speedy maintenance, lovely pool, and state of the art gym. I don't feel that this building is safe or a good value. You can get much more for your money elsewhere in downtown St. Louis. I'm happy to be moving out!

Unfortunately, we have had many water leaks from the ceiling and the recessed lights. After yesterday's storm the "fixes" that the maintenance crew used previously have failed and the ceiling has caved. The water is now spreading in the ceiling to multiple rooms of the penthouse causing massive leaks and water build up. This is now impacting apartments below us. The maintenance crew has been unresponsive for mitigation actions. They will not cover any of the furniture or tarp the failing roof areas to mitigate further damages, after multiple requests. They have also used our beautiful china and our trash cans to catch water from the leaks. Finally, no one will speak with us about the remediation plan.

Now that I am out, I can anonymously share what tenants are dealing with due to the new owners…read more Here are a few of the specific complaints from tenants who have been residents of these properties for 3 to nearly 20 years (identifying attributes removed or generalized for anonymity): These new owners are ATROCIOUS. WITHOUT NOTICE, the new owners now allow dogs which one tenant is extremely allergic to, causing them to go on medication due to the new pets in their building and the smell/hair/dander in the carpeted hallway. Another cannot cope with the incessant barking heard coming from the adjacent building. The grass and grounds where children had played are now covered in yellow stained spots from urine and feces of the animals (note: feces is being cleaned up but the damage to the grass is still happening). Dumpsters impede the full use of the driveway. THERE IS NO COMMUNICATION ABOUT WHAT THEY ARE DOING. The new owners are allowing new and disrespectful tenants who scream at all hours of the day and night and slam doors to where the entire building and those on the street can hear - they seem to take anyone now. Non-residents/workers are leaving doors unlocked and propped open after they depart. One tenant pays for a parking spot but someone else is regularly in it, assumed to be a hired worker. They never told one tenant about the construction and they work from home and were unable to run a very important meeting for work due to the non-stop drilling noise. Attempts have been made, without notice, to enter a unit while a minor child was home alone. One tenant is extremely sensitive to pesticide and would vacate for a couple days when the previous owner notified them of a treatment. NO NOTICE was given when the new owners treated, causing this tenant to pass out in their kitchen in front of their small child who didn't know what to do. Poison control was called and the treating company refused to provide the type of chemical used that day without authorization from the building owner. NO ADVANCE NOTICE is being given of construction and apartment entry, causing numerous tenants to experience unknown contractor knocks and entry into units last minute. Notices are no longer posted in the buildings in advance or at each tenant's door. The new owners said there would be drop boxes installed to submit rent - that never happened. An email notice was sent to one tenant the day after the email said they would be entering the tenant's unit - which required the tenant to execute several tasks they were unable to do and it was during the holidays. Non-residents are now entering the buildings and "snooping" through different areas that were previously secured and are now being left open - damage to the property has occurred. The "upgrades" may look nice at first but they are really cheap and remove any historical charm the units previously had. The "improvements" are done so poorly and are cheap and nothing matches, the new paint is already peeling off and you can see through the paint because it needed primer or another coat. There is a new tenant who must have serious mental health issues and there is a concern for children because they are making "demonic dolls" and "shrines" and putting stacks of full beer cans in odd locations in their walkways. Hopefully these owners can take this as constructive criticism to improve their communication and screening process since the tenants don't feel comfortable speaking up about their individual experiences outside of hallway and sidewalk conversations.

The basement is also constantly flooded and they have drainage issues, but if you report anything you're going to pay! I have photos of the constant mold in the basement and the fact they let young children just park wherever and party all night. I really wouldn't recommend living here, the walls are thin and you can just hear the constant loudness and disrespect of children... because the landlord doesn't care! As long as they have money, the one above me told me her dog is addicted to meth, and so is her mother who I gave a ride away from this place. RENTER BEWARE!!! ANIC will not care about your concerns.
