It's a nice place to live. We don't have much sunlight in our apartment since it's on the north side. But because of large windows, we have enough light for comfortable living. The views are gorgeous! It is a pleasure to see how the sky changes and the sun reflects on the skyline differently every day.
Eviva is a lovely, clean building. All the local problems solve pretty quickly.
Great apartment experience living here. Would recommend this community.
Pros:
• Views (west facing, higher floors), great views of Denver and mountains for the price point.
• Construction - this is a highrise and is constructed with concrete. One of the best insulators of sound. Maintains temperature pretty well year round.
• Access - keyless entry is very convenient. Phone app or customizable entry codes, no keys. Fob provided for building access. Bonus: smart thermostats also controlled remotely through phone app.
• Amenities - pool, yard games, clubhouse area, theater area, gym, vending machine, yoga studio, dog wash, bicycle workshop area, I'm sure I'm missing a few...
• Location - not the most exciting neighborhood, but it's very central to everything and a short walk/bike/drive to everywhere. Getting on the highway is nice, down 8th Ave to I-25. Broadway or Lincoln to head north/south, or Speer to head downtown/cherry creek/highland neighborhood. You're right by the museums, the Capitol, and the cherry creek trail.
• Staff - friendly and responsive staff on premises to help with leasing questions/building questions or issues. Concierge at the front desk around the clock. Even though it's a corporate managed building, they've been fair with me on leasing related issues.
• Neighborhood - while it's not the most exciting and thriving neighborhood, it's being built out quick and shops/food spots are showing up. There are some great food options within walking distance.
• Security - cameras throughout the garage/some stairwells/common areas. Not invasive, but certainly gives me peace of mind if something unfortunate does happen. Elevators/common areas/exterior doors all require key fobs to access.
Cons:
Nothing is perfect, but the benefits far outweigh any detractors, in my mind.
• Shared walls, sometimes VERY LOUD music can leak a bit through walls. Hasn't really been an issue for me, most folks on my floor respect noise levels the vast majority of the time.
• High traffic areas - areas with doors to the garage from the building see lots of foot traffic, I imagine that you get some hallway noise if you live in these areas. Sometimes people drop weights in the gym, the thud can reverb through the floor for those living on the same floor.
Personally, I'd recommend a higher floor of possible, above the 7th. That way you're not dealing with gym noise or foot traffic to/from the garage. West facing units have pretty great mountain views.
I can’t say enough how amazing the apartment as well as the staff is at Eviva on Cherokee.
We’re moving from Columbus, Ohio and took possession of our place before officially moving. We ordered a bunch of furniture and it got delivered way earlier than we expected. The staff made sure all our packages were secured in our apartment despite us being on one of the higher floors.
We arrived and was greeted by the amazing staff and couldn’t believe just how nice the apartments were. We have the best view in all of Denver and the amenities are fantastic.
I am excited to call Eviva on Cherokee home!
