Heard a new power washing to the garage too. The only concern is the construction for the old DMV. The construction generates some noise in the morning.

I've lived in this building for 4 years and have no real complaints (except for the occasional 1…read moreelevator not working). My husband and I looked around White Plains for an apartment, and this building was the best bet in terms of size of apartments, price, and convenience. The higher floors get tons of sunlight and the 12th floor apartments have fireplaces. There's also a gym upstairs and laundry on every floor. The building is about a 10 min walk to the MetroNorth train station and a 5 minute walk to the Mall and Target/Shoprite. There are so many other things within walking distance including the library, DMV, restaurants, bars, biking/walking trails, etc. etc. With regards to the negative reviews left, it really depends on who you are renting from. They may have had a bad landlord who tried to rip them off and weren't attentive to issues that came up. The units in this building are owned by individuals and either lived in by the owner or rented out to others. I think the review by Steven L. which is filtered out for some reason states valid points. Each unit has separate heating and cooling units. If yours is broken ask your landlord to fix the unit in your apartment! No regrets living here.

It offers nice amenities, 24 hour concierge service, indoor pool, small gym with lockers and showers, indoor heated parking, central a/c, outdoor balcony for each unit, top floor lounge area and some rooftop lounge areas. There is some parking for guests in front and parking on the street. One negative is that most of the kitchens are on the small side. Its very close to Turnure Park, and 10 minute walk to Stop and Shop, The Westchester and under 15 minute walk to Mamaroneck Ave. and central downtown. WP train station is just under a mile also. Great location, quiet because it's not in the middle of downtown, but still very walkable to all. Its priced a little higher than your average White Plains condos, but it is a luxury building and has a lot to offer.

I have written a review of the Avalon before. I remember mentioning that alarms were going off all…read morethe time however it is now fixed. The alarms are no longer a reason why this building ranked so low in my mind. All the amenities make it worth living here. The reason it is three stars has a different reason than my first review. Most of the staff at the Avalon are friendly enough but there are a couple unfriendly ones in an otherwise great building. However that does not hurt the rating too much. It's just something that can be improved. There is no need for unfriendliness towards any tenant no matter your thoughts on them. That is my only thought.

As I write this, 4 alarms have gone off. Multiple tenants have emailed corporate office, local management , to which they all reply with "we're aware, we're sorry , we're fixing it". How are you fixing it when it continues to happen every day?????? I call a SCAM! With apartments going from $2150-$5000, this is what you get. Horrible! Such a shame too because all the tenants are nice, it's a dog friendly building and the concierge and maintenance staff are superb.

We first met Ann when we were looking to purchase in Rye Brooke. She was everything we expected in an agent. Later, when we rented our home, she priced it right and we had a bidding war, which earned us top dollar. Again, we asked Ann to help us a few months ago with selling the home. Although the circumstances were quite complicated, with our internal family squabbles, Ann remained professional and diligently worked day and night, weekends, too. She even answered email while on vacation in Europe! Ann's strategic recommendations helped us sell our home quickly and alleviated a lot of the stress we were dealing with. I can't thank her enough.
