Good morning Emily, I hope your day is going well. Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We appreciate your feedback about our community. Renovations can make tours more interesting, the siding is scheduled to be completed in January 2020 and the landscaping in the courtyard just started with the main landscaping starting next spring. If you have any questions or need additional details, please don't hesitate to reach out. You can reach us by phone, Facebook or in person. Thank you again, Emily, and have a great rest of your day.
