This is a really nice shopping area and community space for Iowa City. When I was here there weren't any homeless people harassing people and it was pretty peaceful. No drunks no out of control college kids so it made it nice. Felt safe and wasn't too crowded.

I lived here for over 2 years it was nice overall that I could walk to work and a lot of fun stuff in the downtown area. I did not have a car most of the time that I lived there. I had an oversize one bedroom apartment with two walk in closets. The carpet and applications looked like they were original. The major downside was the 2 weeks I was without a refrigerator and I had to fight with Eagle Property Management about that one. I put $300 down as a security deposit down I only got $27.50 back. Which I am fine with I would just say going forward I would not put that much effort into moving out and clean up.
I looked up a lot of info on this building online and 2 guys own 30 or so of the 40 units they bought them dirt cheap after the flood of 2008. I either see the place going up a lot in rent or becoming more of a low income place. It was nice enough when I was there most people who lived here where single men or couples. not many single women or families or people over 40.
Some people could get fiber to their apartment I could and enjoyed getting 150 down 75 up for $64.95 I don't think they have deals that good any more. Also most of the building was limited to DSL and a lot slower speed. The free WiFi that is included in the rent is a 20mb connection shared over 4 floors and 40 units! I don't regret my time their but I am glad that I moved out.
