I wanted a place where we could feel safe. [Assistant Property Manager] Tabitha took me up to a second floor apartment. I was impressed by the controlled entry system.

Once we opened the door to the apartment, it was love at first sight, and I knew this was it and would become my eventual home. The laundry room containing a full-size washer and dryer was my favorite room- no more weekend trips to the laundromat!

Six years later, I am still calling Southwest Gables my home. My two cats have adopted the fireplace as their own heat source, and my apartment is known as “Grandma’s Place,” where a ride on the elevator takes you to a spare room full of toys. I cannot imagine another apartment that can equal what we have at Southwest Gables. This is home.
