In addition to well-appointed units, residents of the property enjoy unique resort-style community areas and amenities. With a three-quarter-acre amenity deck featuring a luxurious pool and jumbotron, as well as private study rooms on every residential floor, residents get the best of both worlds; a place to relax and unwind as well as a private area to study in a quiet setting.
