MCDONNELL TOWER

Lorrain

I'm at McDonnell Tower. I have been here for a week now. It's pretty nice for the most part. They offer a one-bedroom apartment with a balcony. It has somewhat like a handicapped bathroom that has a tub that you can kind of step into. It has a sprinkler system inside of the apartment as well. They have railings in the hallway. There's a washer and dryer on all even floors. There are community activities throughout the week. There are also activities you can do out in the community that they'll take you to. Overall, it's pretty nice, and my interaction with the staff has been very nice. They're very helpful. I noticed that about the residents as well. They're very informed about the community and what's going on here as well. It's a complex, so there's a lot of seating outside for the summertime or spring. There's a barbecue pit area where you can barbecue. They have a community room, they have a room where you can have Sunday service, which is nice, they have vending machines here, they have a library up on the first floor, they have like a computer lab, and they have a place where you can fax something, just for the residents. It's good value here; I'm on a Section 8 voucher here. They seem to have security at night as well. I have seen someone patrolling a lot, so that's nice.
