Glass House by Windsor

Pros:
1. Great views IF you get a good unit. However, some units have views that are obstructed.
2. Great architecture — cool concrete ceilings, floor to ceiling windows. These are some of the best looking, most modern apartments in Dallas.
3. Friendly concierge, leasing agents.
4. Quality tenants — lots of nice, classy people. I rarely hear noise from neighbors.
5. Fun pool in the summer.
6. No safety issues.
7. Building well maintained.
8. The location is decent. Though not particularly close to much, nearly everything I would want to walk to is within about 1.5 miles. Whole Foods is so close!
9. Maintenance fixes everything promptly.
Cons:
1. Inflexible lease terms — transfers are only possible after 6 months and then only for $ 2000.
2. Very little storage space in bathrooms — only two tiny drawers in the vanities.
3. The shades are very thin. At night, city lights shine right through.
4. The gym is not as nice as at other high rises I have seen. It is small, dark, and just looks at a courtyard. You have to walk outside to get to it.

After my lease was up I chose to leave the glasshouse. I chose to leave because I like to have a lot of open space for my dog and I didn’t like playing chicken with the traffic crossing McKinnon street when I walked to the AAC. The city has since added a traffic light and crosswalk for pedestrian traffic.
I really enjoyed my apartment and the location was great. The other tenants I talked to were friendly and polite. I really can’t complain about this place even after the had first impression I had of this building. I’ve even been considering moving back here.

Great Place lived here in 2011… Best views in town.

I had my home-​office in this luxury building a few years ago for 1 year and I totally enjoyed the experience. The staff was extremely accommodating, the room was beyond any reproach and the manager was organizing events and monitoring everything to ensure customer satisfaction at all times. I enjoyed the fabulous view from the all-​wall window as well as the neighborhood.

OMG live on a box if there’s no other alternative to this building; where do I begin? There’s always someone trashed at the pool in the lobby or in the hall. The weekends are like animal house. Residents cant get a seat at the pool or a spot in the garage because of the guests. Some just walk in through the garage and get in through the stairs and prop the door open for others. Too any dogs in a small area makes the outside smell like a zoo. Noise noise noise. Just derelict people trying to live up yo image. There’s always an eviction for noise or failure to pay rent. Lots of wanna bes. 30k per year millionaires. Just tacky. I’m giving two stars for the spectacular view facing west. It’s breathtaking.
