I lived in the Corset Factory for three years. The physical space of this apartment complex is beautiful. Lots of brick and huge windows. Feels like a renovated industrial-area loft. The ceiling is quite thin from a noise perspective so I could hear everything my upstairs neighbor did (including sneeze and repeat watching of the entire Rocky movie series). But thankfully the neighbors were not so loud that I couldn't tolerate it for three years. However, down the hall was a resident with two dogs that never stopped barking. The management company did nothing to resolve it and I can't imagine what it was like living next door to them. Also, the heat/air conditioning systems is REALLY loud. Loud as in pause the TV and stop talking until it shuts off.



Despite some positive aspects such as location and physical appeal, the management company/leasing office (Spinnaker Real Estate Partners in South Norwalk) is the WORST I have ever dealt with. Rude, arrogant, incompetent, unprofessional, poor communication skills, generally unavailable and unhelpful.



BEWARE they also manage the new IRON WORKS buildings. I'd highly recommend staying away from both properties if you ever intend to interact with management or leasing. Or if you hope to get your deposit back. It has nothing to do with damage or deductions from the deposit (I received the full deposit back), but I had to personally follow up with the management company multiple times to figure out how I was going to get the deposit back. If I hadn't been so persistent, I would never have received it. In my experience, the management never responded to emails, answered the phone, or replied to voicemails. Finally, to get my questions answered I had to physically show up in the management office and corner the manager.



Its a nice place to live and reasonably priced, but save yourself the headache and frustration if you can and find somewhere else.
