It was a nice apartment, not much kitchen space but that wasn't an issue. Parking was very scare around the 227 apartments and they only had six parking stalls for the entire building so it was first come first serve on being able to get a parking permit. There wasn't air for the Windows and there's wired shut so you couldn't put a traditional a/c unit in. The worst was the secretary at the office Sarah. I guess after a verbal misunderstanding she decided to screen all calls from me which is very poor decision making considering I'm still a tent ant. Although she did check voicemails and respond from there. I wouldn't advise living here as a first resort. The maintenance however was timely and efficient and the location was prime.

Lived in one of their apartments on Knickerbocker, really nice apartment that was several hundred dollars cheaper than similar apartments downtown. Their maintenance was responsive and everyone I dealt with there was very professional.

Both of our children began going to Wingra School in Kindergarten. What we love most about Wingra is that our children LOVE going to school. The fact that they love school does not mean that learning is easy at Wingra. Students are challenged according to their learning level and abilities, pushing the envelope of their comfort zones. Our kids delve deeply into each subject, discovering how it applies to real life through field trips, hands-on projects, experiential learning and collaboration. What they learn sticks with them because it all feels relevant, applicable, and interesting! Kids are also expected to work in groups, collaborate with their peers, and learn to respect and listen to one another. As a result, our son and daughter have developed excellent leadership skills, empathy and self-confidence. Not only does Wingra nurture our children as learners, but the staff also works with them to be good friends and community members. Finally, what we love about the school is that our kids are allowed to be who they are and, with the help of Wingra, are developing into their best selves. Thanks, Wingra School!
