Would not live here again
by wheresmybeach at Citysearch
I lived here for about a year. Over the course of my time here, the apartment management seems to have lowered its standards with respect to the quality of tenants, presumably in an effort to fill up the building. People have started hanging out in the parking garage, which is kind of sketchy especially late at night. In addition, there is always some problem with the elevators, and it is not uncommon for the complex to be down to one elevator for the entire 35 floor building. The security guard is usually in the lobby late at night, but they frequently have to do rounds and are away from the desk for long periods of time. One of the guards spends the entire evening on his phone, and doesn't seem like he is doing much to keep the place safe. There are sketchy people dowtown and any thief, murderer, or rapist could easily get into and around the building if he just acts like he is delivering a pizza.
Like any gables property they have zero leniancy with any of the rules, so don't be a minute late on rent or they are going to slap you with a fee, and you better be sure to give 60-days notice to vacate, etc. I knew this going into it, though. Just be sure to read your contract carefully and be sure to hold them to every letter of it because they are certainly going to recite it to you anytime they can squeeze an extra penny out of you. And put everything in writing, no matter how friendly they seem, they are not going to remind you of what your contract says until they can bend you over with it.
- Pros: close to work
- Cons: lower class tenants, unhelpful leasing staff

A great place to live
by spamommy at Citysearch
I used to live in uptown and decided to search for a high-rise in downtown. After looking at numerous properties, i was referred to the Gables Republic Tower. I found the staff (Gerald & Quiynh) to be very friendly and helpful. The apartments and views are amazing. I moved into a two bedroom unit that was brand new and beautiful to boot for a very reasonable price. The rooms flow very well, and the bathrooms and closet space are more than ample. Having moved from an apartment that was next to awful 6-day-a-week construction, the quiet and peace at the republic tower is wonderful!
The only negative comment would be regarding the parking garage. There is a loud noise coming from the filters which is very irritating and i think that since we are paying monthly for parking, it should be corrected.
- Pros: Beautiful apartments with great views
- Cons: Parking garage is older and too noisy on one end
