The Broadview Apartment building has a lot going for it--it's fairly big, so there are many units available most of the time. It has apartments ranging from studios to two bedrooms, although the two bedrooms are fairly hard to get since there are not quite as many of them. It doesn't have much for architectural interest, but it does have an electronic security system and a 24 hr doorperson. Maintenance is good also. And the rents are very reasonable for the area. Overall, a good place to be.

Although I have never lived in the Broadview, I have several friends who lived/still live there and are quite happy. The apartments themselves are clean and pretty large, but you can tell they haven't been renovated in a long time. I think the best feature of this high-rise is the staff that runs the front desk. They are always friendly and very helpful for residents and guests. The main downside here is parking; spaces are available both inside and out for a fee; if you're visiting for the weekend though, you've gotta find somewhere else to park. They used to allow guests of residents to park at a discounted rate in their lot, but they've changed it to parents of residents-- this is a pretty good clue that they're starting to cater only to the college crowd. Still, it's a clean and relatively quiet building.
