This has been a very mediocre place to live. I have made many good memories, but dealing with Firestone has created some of the most frustrating experiences of my time in Fort Worth.

Apartments have a lot of space for the price, especially compared to others in the area. I stay in the largest 1bd1ba but there are other floor plans with less sqft for 1250+. Very close to school, only takes 5 minutes to drive there. Pool is nice but nothing special and the hot tub was removed from the property. Very pet friendly with a dog park. Huge indoor basketball court and club house, and decent gym.

Living at Firestone has been a rollercoaster experience for me. While I will admit management has done a much better job here recently, we were having multiple break ins a week, our gate didn’t work for MONTHS, our pool had to be shut down due to being in violation of city ordinances, we have had swat at our apartments multiple times (even tear gassed my building once), we have had issues regarding felony convicts w/ active warrants being housed here, we have had domestic violence issues, and we have had 4 homeless people caught living in our attic and making peepholes into people’s living rooms. I would not recommend this complex to anyone.

Firestone has a great location. It’s close to the law school, a short trip to the cultural district and all its shops, and has easy access into the heart of downtown. In addition, it has the best gym of any apartment I’ve seen.

The building itself, however, is a mess. The maintenance is in shambles. I had no air conditioning when I moved in in the middle of the summer, and it took a month and a half to get it fixed despite calling every day. I have a hole in my windows and a broken condenser for my AC that have not been fixed in over a month currently either, in addition to myriad other small issues with the apartment that have not been fixed since I moved in. Also, it has a lot of homeless camping next to it, which makes walking to anything unpleasant.

I would strongly recommend against anyone staying here.

Location is great, easy walk to downtown and only 15 minutes to the convention center. Gym is fairly well maintained with a good variety of equipment. Gated community is nice compared to other complexes downtown, although not all gates work consistently. Prior landlords were aggressive with towing non-resident visitors and occassionally towed residents. Pet rent is egregiously high at $50/month plus a nonrefundable deposit. Water temperature can be inconsistent at times due to the smaller water heaters. Living directly on 7th Street can be loud during the evening on weekends. New management acquired the complex in December 2022, and they seem easier to work with.

Firestone Review

Expensive but fine

The location of this apartment is truly the best part—I love it! The management is fairly hands-off but has always responded quickly when we needed help from maintenance or had questions.
The neighbors are all pretty nice, and so are the amenities. You sometimes have to park a bit aways from the apartment, but there’s always a spot somewhere.
Really the only downside is that it’s on the pricer end.

I very much enjoy the location as it is in downtown, about a 30 min. walk/6 min. drive from the bars off of W. 7th, a 10 min. drive from the Stockyards, and it is close to the trails by the river as well as a local basketball court there. Additionally, I really like that the complex has a basketball court and a gym that has a bench press, deadlift area, squat machine, multipurpose station, and isolation machines in addition to other free weights and cardio machines. I also really like the pool setup.

The main aspect that I like the least is the price.

The neighborhood is safe.

There is a new manager and management is now very responsive.

Firestone is a fine apartment but it isn’t the luxury housing that it advertises. It’s a great location with great floor plans. It just doesn’t seem likely that management will get its act together to have this place live up to its potential.
