The James Apartments Reviews

Peter Pan
I’ve been here over a year . I find the individuals working here aloof and dismissive . I’m over 70 and have yet to see any semblance of accommodation, accessibility or any concern , whatsoever for older people . I’ve been injured by unsafe features . It is quite evident their target tenants are younger- monied- DINK ( double income no kids) . They lack even the most basic of courtesies such as a meet and greet when first arriving. Gaslighting concerns are their M.O. Disillusionment follows me day in and day out in this place . I DO NOT RECOMMEND.
