I've looked at several places in the loring park neighborhood and surrounding areas, and nothing is as clean and well kept as Oak Grove Towers. I can't believe some people live in those old, crooked places. I have never heard my neighbors and I can watch a movie loud without complaint. You may give up some square footage, but the location and building are well worth it. The management is cool too, unlike some of the stories I've heard about some of the better known places in the area. It's a quiet building, but i've been invited to some great parties also, so it's certainly not a boring place to live. And of course there are great veiws of the city.
