Thanks so much! I joined the group and can’t wait to attend the next 😊😊

Thank you! I have never been to Murphy’s, but it sounds like an awesome place. I’ll give it a go 😁 Also, I love the introverts bar idea… I’d go!

Agreed, I take my dog to Bulls Head and they are always great!

Dr. Nolan at Bulls Head is amazing!

Love living at Urby, I’ve never felt unsafe walking my dog at night. I walk to the train everyday for work to commute to the city and it is a quick 10-15 minute walk (also feels safe at all times of the day) and a 40-58 minute train ride. Highly recommend Urby, best luxury building I’ve lived in

I have read on the website that there is a woof garden! Do you have any photo to share?

I’ve moved in Urby with my dog and boyfriend for a year and a half and we love it and it’s super quiet, although I think it depends what floor you’re on and what you face.

Tiernans is our favorite!!

Yes Harbor Point is safe lol. It's amusing to me as someone who's moved here from a larger city, how "unsafe" people think Stamford is. I guess if you've grown up relatively sheltered then sure, HP is "dangerous". Been here for a year and a half with zero problems. Drive through the surrounding areas all the time. Nothing. Just because someone looks at you a certain way or is of a different...ahem...color than you, doesn't mean in general the place isn't safe.

What time?

Is this a good suggestion for a general mechanic? I drive a 2003 Toyota and am new to Stamford. Could really use a good solid shop.

Notes were about parking. 3rd floor.

Beware of first floor. There's a guy that smokes inside during the winter and it smells bad.

There may be a few furnished units available, but generally no.

May I ask, what floor were you on?

Also, what were the passive aggressive notes on the door about?

I'm in an Atlantic Station apt and I'm pretty content except that you can't seem to escape the construction noise anywhere downtown. Easy access to Metro North and 95 which will take you to NYC and New Haven.

I'd also throw out the Waterside area as an option if you're concerned about noise and don't care about being near nightlife. It's across the water from Harbor Point. We live at Harbor Landing Apartments and mostly like it.

Our unit is close to the street and there's some noise from traffic but it's not too bad (I'm also a very sensitive sleeper) and certainly much less traffic than downtown. Units towards the back should be pretty quiet. There are also more buildings further down the street. Baypointe is nicer, more expensive and a bit further from the street as well but you also get further away from the train station so it's a trade-off.

I think the best part about the area is it's great for dog walking. There's a boardwalk that goes all the way from our building along the water down to a (small) park. Overall this side of the water seems to be a bit cheaper than Harbor Point.

Are you planning on leaving your dog at a day care while you're out at work? Then you might want to consider that location as well.

I should also add that it takes forever to get anything fixed. Last year the garage door broke on the lower level and it took like 6 months to get it fixed. Leaving peoples cars unsecured. There also seems to be lots of leaks everywhere. Cars get dripped on in the garages, puddles don't drain if your parking outside the garage, and the parking area in general smells really bad. The neighbors are also pretty bad about cleanliness. I had a dog that would find KFC like chicken bones all the time outside the doors and parking area.

I recently moved from there and my advice is STAY AWAY!!!

The super isn't as bad as I think the reviews say but, that being said my old roommates had several negative interactions with him. The worst was yelling/screaming at each other and the smaller annoyances were passive aggressive notes on doors.

I had 2 pretty terrible experiences while living there. One is the landlord related the other is the construction of the building. The landlord basically refused to fix anything, including flooding damage due to construction in the unit above mine. Shit seems to break A LOT. On that note, it's a roll of the dice of whether or not you'll have hot water. There's 1 large boiler for the entire complex. The second thing and this was the real reason why I moved is that the insulation is god awful!!! Before the electricity hike of 2023, my winter electricity bill for a 570sq ft unit was almost $500 a month.

If I were you, I would pass.

Thank you! I’ll write to you privately! Apartments are furnished?

I’m not claiming everywhere to be 100% safe. But at some point you need to start looking at the frequency of incidents and accept that some areas have a higher chance of violence occurring than others.

To be fair, it’s gonna happen literally anywhere you go. It can happen on Bedford Street, it can happen over in Glenbrook, it can happen at Harbor point. Anywhere you go is not 100% safe.

See my comment above

we moved the the area recently and considered urby, but found the units really small compared to other buildings with similar prices (after touring). it depends on what you’re looking for! the units are well designed, but like i said, small. we ended up going with summer house like another person mentioned, and have been happy with our decision!

Safe? With shootings on the surrounding streets every month?
