I've been living here for the past 2 years, and I couldn't be more satisfied. So many major upsides:
1) Excellent value for money, especially when compared to the surrounding apartment complexes. I've toured multiple of them which are similarly priced (Plankinton Lofts, Boston Lofts, The Buckler, etc.), none of them offer nearly as much as GW does.
2) Fully equipped and furnished apartments (fridge + freezer, A/C unit, washer and dryer inside the units, dishwasher).
3) 24/7 gym (a large one with lots of space and equipment!), spa with a hot tub and 2 saunas, game room, on-site one stop-shop open 9AM through 9PM for emergencies.
4) Friendly and highly responsive staff and management, monthly social events.
5) Great neighbors, all young professionals and students, I've never had an issue with a single one of them.
6) Everything within walking distance -- shops, restaurants, convenience stores, Walgreens across the street, major attractions, riverfront. Public transportation right on the corner, unless you drive and park in the garage (or across the street in the giant parking structure).
7) Gorgeous historical building, kept clean and well-maintained.
I would definitely recommend this place as the first choice in the downtown/Westown area for single occupants, couples, and groups of friends alike.
Come and be our new neighbor!

Excellent value for money, attentive and responsive property management + maintenance staff, great amenities (gym, convenience store, hot tub + sauna, community room). Smack in the middle of downtown/Westown, within walking distance to most major sights and venues. Public transportation, Walgreens, 3rd St Market Hall, plenty of restaurants and services within a block or two. Fully equipped apartments (washer and dryer, AC, oven + stove, dishwasher, fridge + freezer) with plenty of space and great noise isolation. Mostly young professionals and couples (with/without pets, no small children) in the building, everyone is nice and welcoming.
I definitely recommend the Grand Wisconsin Apartments to all apartment seekers. Thank you for all your hard work and services!

Fantastic value for money, great amenities, helpful and relaxed staff, spacious and well-equipped apartment. Offers much more than the surrounding complexes in Westown/Downtown for equal/lower rent. Look no further and inquire at the Grand Wisconsin!
Grand Wisconsin is approximately 13 minutes away by car from the city center.
