The rent here is insanely high, but the quality doesn’t match the cost. The amenities are overhyped and often overcrowded. You’re basically paying for the name, not the experience.

Since our move in early 2020, MST has devolved from a vibrant, secure community into a disappointment masquerading as luxury living. What was once a haven of fun and safety has become a playground for petty criminals, with car break-ins now a regular occurrence.

The management's solution? Implement a labyrinth of infantilizing rules. Forget about late-night swims or stargazing by the pool, apparently, we're all children with a 10 PM bedtime. Want to hit the gym after hours? Prepare for your... personal security escort, because heaven forbid a paying resident use an amenity unsupervised.

The nickel-and-diming is relentless. The theatre room, once a seldom used but casual hangout spot, now comes with a $150 price tag. Brace yourself for an onslaught of arbitrary fees – trash, water, and who knows what they'll dream up next. It's as if they're determined to squeeze every last cent from our wallets while the building crumbles around us.

Speaking of which, enjoy your surprise cold showers courtesy of the increasingly frequent water leaks. Nothing says luxury like unpredictable basic utilities, right?

The Fourth of July "celebration" was a sad reflection of MST's decline. In a misguided attempt to create exclusivity, they managed to throw the most depressing pool party in history. Nothing says "Independence Day" quite like an empty pool and a DJ who apparently fears sunlight.

Maintenance? What maintenance? The gym looks like it's been through a war, doorknobs remain broken for years, and the wallpaper in the building is peeling faster than residents' patience. Essential amenities like the sauna, steam room, and golf simulator were out of commission for months on end, all while we continued to pay premium rates for phantom services.

The saving grace? The ground-level staff. Concierge, valet, and others, who soldier on admirably despite upper management's best efforts to run this place into the ground.

In short, unless you enjoy paying exorbitant fees for deteriorating amenities and the privilege of being treated like a delinquent teenager, I'd advise you to look elsewhere. MST has become a masterclass in how to alienate residents and destroy a once-thriving community. Read More

I have lived in many different high rise towers in downtown Houston and Market Square Tower is by far the most luxurious. I love the big windows, the high ceilings, and the modern appliances in each apartment. Its location is great too with an easy commute to my office downtown.

Market Square Tower is the best luxury apartment in downtown Houston. The apartments boast a modern and stylish design and amenities that fit any preference for comfort and entertainment. They have locations all over the city making it easy to find your dream location. I am so happy with my decision to live at Market Square Tower!

I have lived in Market Square Tower for over 2 years now and I can not imagine living anywhere else. The building itself is gorgeous, modern, and has some of the best amenities in the whole city. I love my floor plan and how close to the ground level it is. It's also right next to Capitol Tower which is one of my favorite buildings in Houston.
