The elevators both break frequently. Two tenants have gotten trapped in them at different times. One elevator is out of order for two weeks according to the property management emails.
. The basement and upper garage doors break frequently and often without any email notices. Upper garage had multiple leaks in the ceilings.
Management charged me a few hundred in rent and extra $200 parking multiple times. They corrected when I emailed them. They don’t have a very good online portal that... mixes up your rent charges often
The elevators (north and south) break monthly. Property manager insists they “inspect” them monthly. Two tenants got trapped for hours in both elevators at different times. As of June 10th 2026, both elevators don’t work. The Congress st facing elevator may be out for two weeks. The upper garage door is propped open by maintenance. The bottom garage door is often propped open due to issues. Someone broke into a car in the lower garage.
The upper garage door breaks frequently. Springs are rusty... and it looks like it’s not maintained …properly.
Basement garage has leaks in the wall corners and lots of VISIBLE rusting!
One room I rented on the top floor has a leak in the bathroom.
Do not rent here if you want constant issues to deal with.

Nice building, good management, but very expensive
Nice building, good management (Zach the Property Manager from Redfern is very nice, diligent, and professional), but the electric bill for my unit is unbelievably high. My bill for a one-bedroom apartment is roughly 200 dollars a month consistently every month, and this is not specific to my unit. If you factor this in to other costs associated with living in this building, like parking for example (which will more than likely not be on site, as there is a waiting list for on-site parking), it... really adds up and makes the cost of living substantially higher than the advertised rent prices. It is something to consider if you are evaluating moving in to this building.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are glad to hear that you have found our community and team to be satisfactory. We appreciate your concerns regarding the electric bill and other associated costs. We would like to... expand on this by saying that we do not create the pricing for electricity, and it is based on individual usage. If you would like to further this discussion, we would be happy to speak with you directly.

Helpful staff
Really nice property! While it is certainly on the expensive side (and keeps getting more expensive), the staff is supremely helpful. The crew working on maintenance requests is super awesome, helpful, and kind. The property manager onsite, Zach, is really great and will do whatever it takes to help in a very timely manner with professionalism and empathy.

Recent change in management
We have been in the Hiawatha for 4 years. After the pandemic building management was almost non-existent and the building was not maintained. There was a change in management companies to Red Fern now they are squeezing everyone into leases where we had been month to month for the last two years. They know other premium buildings are opening up soon and are obviously trying to lock people in so they don't leave in mass.
Shady practice for a new management company that has said they are... making it better.
