First Street Place

My favorite youngest barely adult moved to First Street Place from Elizabeth City, NC with their partner in crime aka Maverick, The Mav-Man, Mavin-o. The complex was overall clean(inside & out), tidy, ensured my youngest(& Maverick's) safety, package delivery was spot-on, there were no issues with bugs nor any heating/ac issues. The elevator did not work from time to time, however that would merely prime one's legs for the hop/skip/jump to the parking lot down the hill! Maverick was always in need of cardio so the stairs & hill were not all together bad! Employees were kind, gracious, knowledgeable of the building/rules & knew some of the immediate area. The staff also knew most animal residents by name!

My experience with First Street Place has been unacceptable and raises legitimate concerns regarding management integrity and business practices. Upon move in, essential utilities (lights and water) were not activated, and my vehicle was wrongfully towed, requiring reimbursement. Throughout my tenancy, I encountered repeated issues with staff — specifically Jenna Isley, Cam, Alexis, and “new management” Marissa who were consistently dismissive, unprofessional, and unresponsive. Despite my ledger and receipts confirming full payment, management falsely claimed I owed first month’s rent. It took nearly two months of persistent documentation and everyday follow-ups to have the error corrected. This property’s accounting practices appear highly questionable, and communication is nearly nonexis

this place has gone to crap since the old “porter” guy i think named drew left. i feel as though he was the only one who actually cared about how this place looked cleaning wise. the apartment building has felt so disgusting for the past month or so. trash everywhere, dirty floors, elevator smelling like urine, dead bugs everywhere, foul smelling hallways, and now all four of the trash chutes are filled to the brim with trash from the bottom floor up to the fourth floor. there are so many bags of trash in the rooms that you can’t even open the door and the trash is spilling out into the hallways making it smell horrible. this is because it is completely filled due to it not being taken out to the dumpsters outside. it took almost 3 weeks for them to even mop down in the basement. for three

THANK YOU JACK (and only JACK) for fixing our water heater issue, toilet issue (beginning of the year) and for being honest, patient, and super kind to us.

If I could I would give 0 stars. This place is absolutely terrible. The building is dirty, and the rooms constantly smell like weed. The staff actually feed stray cats behind the property, which attracts raccoons and other wildlife completely unacceptable. They also tow cars for no reason, even when residents are parked correctly, just to squeeze money out of people. On top of all that, the staff is rude, unhelpful, and completely ignorant when it comes to dealing with residents. I would never stay here again, even if it was free. Save your money and avoid this place at all costs. I will be calling the health department.
