    "This neighborhood is great for young families. Parks with playgrounds are within a 10 minute walk and there is tons of green space for kids to play. With that said, it’s primarily young professionals and young families so you don’t see many people with children over age 7ish. "

    "Community seems equally apt for young, single adults and families with children and pets. Could use more green space (trees and gres) in parts of community not as near to the waterfront, but that’s a flaw inherent to this newly developed area robust with apt buildings rather than residential homes"

Great options for food, outdoor spaces, culture, entertainment, and increasingly shopping. It IS urban living so there are the normal irritations but the great far outweighs them. "
