I have lived at Oak Grove Towers for 2 years without any major problems. The biggest headache with this area of town is guest parking. Street parking is limited and you can get ticketed/towed for parking overnight. Currently OGT has 4 guest spots on a first-come, first-served basis but they are almost always occupied. Resident parking is available and although the structure is rather dirty, I think it is probably better than average for the price.
Recently the fitness center was expanded, and is reasonable for an apartment this size. Also, management recently turned the old fitness center into a game room. Laudry facilities are sometimes out of order. You need to watch about half of the washers to make sure they don't reset during the first 10 minutes.
On the positive side, maintenance is always prompt and the office workers are friendly. The lobby is kept clean and the people in the building are diverse and friendly. Although parking and laudry could be better, I don't think you'll find anything better for the price in such a great location. Oak Grove is a nice area, close to downtown and uptown.
