My wife and I came to McCarty Place in the summer of 2011, after moving from our previous location…read moreat Riverwalk Apartments. We were initially struck by the updated feel of the living space - contrary to some of the other units we had viewed in the Greater Lafayette/West Lafayette area, McCarty Place offered newer appliances and a more modern feel than most of the other complexes we had viewed in our apartment search. The size of the units was another determining factor in our move. For just under $800/month, we ended up renting a 3-bedroom unit with over 1000 SF of living space. Our unit is on the top floor, meaning we also benefit from vaulted ceilings, making the apartment feel even bigger than it actually is. For those who are in need of less living space, McCarty Place also offers 2-bedroom and 1-bedroom units, each with the same aforementioned modern feel. Despite the ample square footage offered, the kitchen in our unit is rather small, and does not offer much counter space or storage. While a pantry is available, if you own plenty of cookware, you may find difficulty fitting all of your items (neatly) into the provided space. Nevertheless, the cabinets seem to be of good quality, and the drawers offer a feature which prevents them from being damaged due to being closed (slammed) too quickly. One of the best features of McCarty Place units are the bathrooms, which contain ceramic tile flooring and sinks with granite countertops. The bathroom also includes ample shelving, which functions well in lieu of a linen closet. While this may be a problem specific to our unit, it is important to note that the water heater does not provide hot water for an extended period of time, which could prove to be problematic should residents - say, you and your wife - want to take showers one right after another. Each bedroom in our unit is large, with the master bedroom (obviously) providing the most space. Carpeting in the rooms is reminiscent of a shag style, and appears to be of a decent quality (perhaps most importantly, it feels good on your feet). Ample closet space is also provided, with each of our bedrooms providing plenty of room for all of our clothes, decorations, and other items we need to store. As stated previously, the entire apartment has a very modern, updated feel to it, something which you will be hard-pressed to find elsewhere in Lafayette. Additionally, the residents making up the community are generally respectful of others, meaning that - for the most part - you won't have to deal with incredibly loud neighbors, parties, or random interruptions of your sleep in the middle of the night. Outside of your unit, there are some factors to consider which detract from McCarty Place earning a 5-star rating. Most individuals who rent here - as of the writing of this review - are smokers. This isn't necessarily a big deal; however, many of the smokers do not properly dispose of their cigarettes, meaning that you will be seeing them everywhere, from the stairwells, to the walkways, and into the parking lot. Other issues of cleanliness have also been problematic during our stay here. Though the issue fluctuates in seriousness, there have been several problems with residents not cleaning up after their dogs in the grassy areas surrounding the complex. This means that - if you own a dog - you are very likely to step in another animal's waste, something which is not exactly appealing. Thankfully, management has attempted to rectify the issue, which has resulted in a lessening of the problem through time. In a nutshell, McCarty Place offers a modern, updated living space at a great price, if you are able to look past issues with tidiness and a relatively small kitchen. Whether you are new to Lafayette or in need of a new place to call home, McCarty Place delivers in many key areas, making this a great place to live for anyone in search of a quality living space in greater Lafayette/West Lafayette.

Not only are you surrounded by tons of things to do, but you are surrounded by great neighbors. Within days that I moved here, neighbors were already welcoming me. They are super nice people! After living in an apartment where all they did was party, and then coming to McCarty Place was such a relief! I love the quiet environment. I am a student, but the environment is what sucked me in! I love that you can have animals! Even though I do not have an animal, I love going out on my balcony and watching others play with their pet. Overall, McCarty Place is the place to be! I love it!

Though this is a nice place to live, the UPPER management is extremely difficult to work with and…read moremore than nasty 100% of the time. I loved my apartment and kept it immaculate. There were no marks, scuffs nor anything on the walls upon leaving. The normal "wear and tear" was part of living. Everything upon leaving was immaculate, yet the kept the total deposit, and the list they gave me upon leaving (within the state guidelines) was quite an overstep with reality and the true cost of maintenance. The one thing that was a problem is NO elevators and the toilet would not flush. If they were trying to save money on water, flushing 4 times was not a cost saver. The rent goes up EVERY year so be aware. It is close to the university which is nice, but just be aware of the "issues" we had.

He thought my kids would enjoy a day at the pool which they did they left and came back after the office closed well they have "pool monitors" who told them they couldn't swim because they had T-shirt's on.they took them off and the pool monitors were upset that my son who is 7 jumped in the pool, she yelled at him and my husband didnt like it and told her to direct her words to him. she got mad told them to leave they argued and the pool monitors banned them from the pool. next day he goes to the office they tell him don't worry about them they've had issues with other Mexican folks yall are not banned everything is ok they swim kids have fun. Later that day I take them to the pool with the pool tag and they tell me I can't be there I'm not on the lease I tell them my husband already spoke to the office and they said it was fine she gets mad and tells me your leaving or I'm calling the cops I get mad and irate leave and they still call the cops on me and the kids. they denied the services my husband pays for because they were upset from the previous day.

They kept many of the elements of the old office space, so it is not just another apartment but has a fantastic historic vibe to it. The building is beautiful, clean, extremely quiet and seems primarily filled with grad students and more mature professionals. The building is within walking distance to just about everything, and the free CityBus to Purdue picks up and drops off within steps from our door. Guaranteed lot parking is available for an up-charge, or you can use free street parking just a few blocks over. I work and attend class at Purdue and just walk anytime I can; it is about 1.5 miles each way but is the perfect way to get a little 30 minutes of cardio to start your day. Highly recommended!

The coffee in the main area became cheap exotic Great Value brand flavors that no one would actually drink (sat for months). The trash compactor breaks...and stinks in summer. The parking lot and shared indoor areas are not kept clean. Poop once sat outside of the back entrance for weeks. They got caught charging tenants different rates for electricity (!). They left one of our neighbors' heat broken for months during winter. Left someone else's AC broken during hot months. They act like richards when you ask them to do their job and they do the bare minimum (i.e. least expensive thing) to temporarily fix issues knowing full well it will just break again. They do shady ish with leases too, so be careful. And they had the audacity to raise the rent despite all of the above. A horrible lazy, cheap group trying to maximize profits at their tenants' expense. Can't wait to hear about baby's first lawsuit. Would love that for them! P.s. Purdue used to go after landlord's on their student's behalf. I wonder if they still do... Just thought I'd mention that. Cheers!
