I have lived at The Tower for the past 7 months, and I have to say that I am very pleased with the time I have spent here thus far. This is my first time living at my own place on my own, and the management at The Tower has been such a wonderful help with the student-adult transition.
I currently occupy a studio and I feel that the monthly rate is reasonable, especially since the Internet is included in the $50 utility package (which also includes water, sewage, trash, etc). I am only... responsible for electricity outside of that package. I have had little to no problems with my studio. It does appear that the units have been recently furnished, with new kitchen appliances and tile flooring. The maintenance and custodial staff are some of the nicest and sweetest people, and any work orders I have put in are usually remedied the same day or the following morning.
I mostly picked The Tower for its close proximity to MSU, and I love how my campus is walking distance given the trail added behind the parking lot of the apartment complex. The complex also has 3 study rooms, a lounge, game room, and fitness center. My friends and I spend close to every day in the study rooms as they are so nice and comfortable. The management has thrown several events at the building, including grocery bingo, gingerbread cookie making station, and free food events, just to name a few. They also have a coffee station in the leasing office area. The Amazon locker is a wonderful touch to the building.
Overall, I think The Tower is an absolutely wonderful place to live. I have already renewed my lease for next year, and one of my friends was encouraged to sign a lease for next year given all the amenities and close proximity of the Tower to other places (walking distance to Trader Joes!).

Thank you, we appreciate the feedback! We are very lucky to have the new trail that cuts the walk to campus more than half of what it was before. Having the chance to hang out with all of our residents and their furry friends makes our day! Let us... know if there is anything we can do to keep up the welcoming atmosphere. :) - The Tower Team, (517) 351-5199, choosefoundation@peakmade.com.

I've really enjoyed my time at this apartment complex in East Lansing. The location is excellent; it's an easy 5-minute drive to campus, which is a huge plus. Beyond the convenience, the community here is amazing! It's such a welcoming environment, and I've had so many opportunities to meet new people and make friends.

This apartment complex is a fantastic place to live! It's super convenient, just a quick 5-minute drive and walk from campus. What really sets it apart is the strong sense of community. I've met so many great people here, and there are always opportunities to connect and socialize. Plus, it's a great spot for animal lovers – they're so welcoming to pets! If you're looking for a friendly atmosphere, a convenient location, and a place where your furry friend will feel at home, this is the place!
