Opinions on Memorial by Windsor for a first-time high-rise tenant?
I’m about to sign a $3k/month lease. I’ve never spent so much on a place before and I’ve also never lived in a high-rise.
A few pros and cons:
The view is incredible and it has direct access to buffalo bayou park. I have 2 kids, 7 and 9, who will love the park. Decent amenities package but not as good as newer buildings.
I might be wasting my money here. I’m not a huge outdoors person, don’t own a dog, work long hours. I’ll really only use these things on the weekend. Also, they are in the middle of a renovation that won’t be finished for a year. The lobby will be out for six months and my balcony will be out for probably 2 months.
However, I’m getting historically low rent for this unit, probably due to the construction, which management has committed to not raise more than 3% per year.
I also hear that a lot of people love love this place and stay for many years.
I think for my money, I could stay someplace much nicer too. Downtown and Midtown are out for me. Galleria area is nice, but not super family friendly. Is this my best option for a family-friendly high rise?
