Good times... great ammenities.



Wow, this afternoon I went and looked at the apartments in Downtown Memphis (note: it was ~105 degrees today in downtown). I had forgotten about all of the amenities they offer to residents! Some of them are just so over the top that they’re laughable if you were coming in from anywhere else, with any other expectations. They’re nice, really nice.

Here are a few of the amenities offered by the apartments that I toured:

  • Two clubhouses
  • Five pools with large sundecks
  • Hydro-spa
  • Saunas and steam rooms
  • Indoor racquetball, basketball, and volleyball court
  • Social activity room – TV & billiards room
  • Three tennis courts
  • Lush landscaping
  • On-site car wash / car care center
  • Wrap around patio, deck, or sunroom
  • Gas Fireplace
  • Vaulted ceilings
  • Ceiling fans
  • River or pool views
  • Crown molding
  • Built in microwaves
  • Garden tubs
  • Tiled entry foyers
  • Washer and dryer in unit
  • Kitchen island
  • Controlled access gates
  • Executive business center
  • Fitness center
  • Garages
  • Mountain bikes
  • Free movie checkout
  • Movie – media theatre room
  • Sand volleyball court
  • Walk-in closets
  • Faux granite countertops
  • Arched entryways
  • Computer desks
  • Hot tub
  • Gas grills
  • Basic cable
  • Wireless internet

Keep in mind that not every apartment offers all of these, but most offer at least half of the list. It’s a little crazy, no? But really… who doesn’t want a free washer and dryer, and a 24 fitness center?
