WORST APARTMENT I HAVE EVER SEEN! I've been living here for ~8 months. I'm fine for the rent, the extra charge for the Internet and cable ($150 per month and it's mandatory.) However, the service in their leasing office is so BAD! During summer, the leasing office will choose to ignore the existing residents requests because they need to review new applicants. I was directly told that they do not have the capacity to process new applications so they choose to IGNORE EXISTING CUSTOMERS. Did you see the irony here: Their capac... read more

The apartments at The Merridian are well built. The location is great. But the management of this property are by far the most rude, ignorant and belittling people I've ever met. Minus Katie, she was great. The other individuals in the office were down right above me, and we're telling me things about myself I didn't even know. I applied to live there, they only take your prepared 1040, anyone who knows anything knows that you want to make the end amount on your 1040 as little as possible. As a recent combat veteran I had a ... read more

I would not even tell my worst enemy to move into this apartment complex. The rent is incredibly overpriced for what it is - you might as well go to Tribeca or Grandview Yard where at least you'll get actual granite countertops and hardwood floors for the price you pay (at the Meridian, you'll get counters that are spray painted to look like granite, and fake wood-looking linoleum - classy, right?). Oh you want to have a party? That's great, but you better tell all your friends to take a cab because they won't be able to fin... read more

DO NOT LIVE HERE OR EVEN APPLY! The Meridian and the Connor Group is the worst establishment with whom I have ever had the displeasure of doing business. I and one of my two roommates found a 3 bedroom apartment and officially signed paperwork, paid the $399 administration fee and $50 per person application fee on June 21, 2012. The following day, our third roommate visited to tour the complex, fill out her paperwork, and paid her $50 fee. We were set to move into 2764 Aschinger Blvd on September 28, 2012. Throughout the sum... read more

As a tenant, I would not recommend living here. The facilities are nice and it is hard to beat the location, but it is fairly pricey, there is very little visitor parking and most of all, the incompetence of the front office staff is nothing short of astounding. I had not even moved in before I started having problems. I was called by the front office the day before I moved in to confirm that I could pick up the keys any time after the office opened. When I showed up at 1:30PM the following day, they told me the carpet was i... read more

Only the RICH can afford to live here (but why would they want to?) Let's just say the Connor Group is headed by Larry Connor who wrote he graduated suma (sic) cum laude and has visited all five continents on his company's official website. Residents are required to pay utilities to a group called Heartland that he also owns. Your rent covers the right to live there; absolutely nothing else. Do you really believe that they need $25 a month from each of 440 apartments for the trash dumpster bill? Do you find it a bit unfair t... read more

Just spend your money elsewhere – Yes, the Meridian is conveniently located. That is why I've lived here for a few years. However, to say dogs are a nuisance is an understatement!!! I like dogs, but I hear dogs barking all the time. Pet waste is a HUGE problem. There is no way to avoid walking through dog urine to get into my apartment. It is in 2 of the three accessible entrance ways. Residents let their dogs pee in the hallways as well. I even had a dog pile in front of my door on one occasion. Residents also leave pet was... read more
