Great apartment, quiet and nice building.

Love the common areas. Not a lot of people around so it’s very private. Pick an apartment on the other side of the train and you won’t hear it.

Great Property

Amenities are great and management is very responsive! There are some cockroaches in the outside area but they are rarely a problem indoors.

Nice apartment, great location

Apartment itself is great and location could not be better with proximity to campus, bus route to the hospital, grocery store, and Ninth St. Has had some maintenance issues that remain unfixed or took much longer to get fixed than what I would expect at an apartment complex that charges the price they do, but overall would recommend living here.

No complaints, good location, will resign

I wanted to be walking distance to everything going on at 9th street, but didn't want to be in a building that was all Fuqua students. I originally signed a 10-month lease to save money over the summer and next year by moving but I don't want to go through the hassle. I've been happy with everything so far so I'll resign.

It’s a beautiful community. Management is a bit slow to respond to any issues. The pool is inconsistently opened, rules are not enforced evenly.

Berkshire Main Review

Truly enjoy living here while at Fuqua. It's close enough to s9 (3-minute walk) where the majority of my class lives while also having a little separation for my partner and me. The only negative thus far is a little noise from the train which quickly turned into background noise after a week or two. Highly recommend the property overall.

Neighborhood has been great. Haven't been commuting to school all that frequently for obvious reasons, but takes less than 10 minutes to do so. I can grab everything I need and meet with friends all within walking distance. Durham could use more street lights in general, but in terms of safety, I think 9th street is your best option!
Reviewed by Fuqua MMS Student living at Station Nine
Best place to live hands down. Next to the supermarket, so many food options and many complexes in the area. Near downtown and Duke. Great if you’re new in town because it is super safe. Perfect if you have a car because the only downside is that depending on what Duke school you’re in it might not be walking distance.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at 810 Ninth Street
Ninth Street is super walkable and majority of Fuquans live in the area. Definitely worth it to pay a little more to live in walking distance of so many classmates. Plus the restaurants on Ninth Street are great, and a short walk (~3 mins) to East Campus to use the walking trail!
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at 810 Ninth Street
Everything is close: other complexes like S9, B9; bars like flying bull, the tavern, supermarkets like Harris Teeter or Whole Foods, East campus hiking route.

You can get to the school by bus (45 mi) or by car (10 min). Carpooling is very commom.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at Station Nine
Neighborhood is fine. All the Duke grad students live in the same area so it makes for a pleasant student community, and there are some decent restaurants and grocery stores within walking distance.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at 810 Ninth Street
Harris Teeter and Whole Foods are right nearby, and the area feels generally safe. 5 min from the highway if you need to drive outside of Durham. ~10 min to get to the WaDuke/Science Drive.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at Station Nine
The 9th St. neighborhood is great because it is within walking distance to all of the shops and restaurants on 9th St. It could be better if it were closer to Fuqua and/or downtown Durham.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at 810 Ninth Street
All the restaurants around the 9th street area are within 5 mins walk from the complex. The campus is an 8-10 minute drive. Downtown Durham is also an 8-10 minute drive away.
