Park at Your Own Risk... And Safety

Sign at entrance for Landmark at Rosewood apartments in North Dallas

This is a spur of the moment post brought on by yet ANOTHER one of life's difficulties from living at Landmark at Rosewood apartments in North Dallas.

The latest problem is over... Parking. Or lack thereof.

A friend of mine came by un-expected about 1:30 AM. She called me from the parking lot to ask where she should park. I told her to find a visitors space but, she told me that there aren't any open... Even in the front.

I told her I would go out and find a spot and she could go inside while I parked. When I got to her truck, I saw she had brought her four kids with her... All under 10-years old. They went inside and I drove around the entire complex... TWICE. Not a single visitors parking spot!
I ended up parking in the spot in front of the laundry room that has the stripes painted-no parking and hoped it wouldn't get towed. A half hour later I went back out to move it into a spot that opened up in the front by the office.

Parking Rules for Landmark at Rosewood... Expect to Learn As You Go With No Help From Office



If you are looking for an apartment complex that offer as many amenities as possible like, worry-free parking... Then stop reading right now and look elsewhere because, the parking situation for Landmark at Rosewood is really a pain in the ass.

Of course, part of the parking problem for me personally was not knowing what the parking "policy" actually is. How difficult could it be? You drive. You find a spot. You park. No problem, right?
Enter the office staff into the situation. In January, it was Magy, assistant manager Nikki and the manager Jennifer Dales.
...... Now that those three are somehow involved with the parking policy... Now there is a problem!

I moved into my apartment the first week of January. I paid the prorated rent, additional deposits, fees, charges and after I felt nearly broke, I got the keys and started to move in.
I mentioned in an earlier post that I had installed a video camera on the patio that let me see my truck on a monitor so, it was the second night I was living in my new apartment, close to 3 AM to be specific and I looked at the monitor. I squinted my eyes to see if I was seeing what I thought I was seeing. I was amazed to see someone in the parking lot with a flashlight and they were going from car to car shining the light inside and then on to the next... Which was my truck!
