There are many issues with this building, and I share the same sentiment as the other reviewers in how this building is run. There is no security, the facilities are old and need major maintenance help. The Management team clearly does not value it's tenants but instead puts the AirBnB above people who live there all year round. Having a constant stream of transient people creates an unsafe living environment.
If you're looking at this property my recommendation is to go somewhere else, I know... I will move as soon as possible.

Adding to the Complaints
I have very similar sentiments as the other reviewers. Brookside properties is clearly not taking care of the building and their residents. There are issues with the elevator, the gym, security and just basic upkeep. I've debated staying versus the cost of moving but ultimately I am willing to pay more for an apartment and a management company that treats their residents with respect and courtesy. There are many apartments downtown that do a better job than The Block.
Also the restaurant... downstairs creates a horrible smell in the lobby. P.S. Brookside management... fix the elevator! Having only 1 elevator for a year is horrible.

Security Issues and Only One Elevator
This apartment used to be an amazing place to live. Brookside Management came in and decided not to put any money into the property.
Within the building there around various Airbnb units. Actual residents see strangers everyday and ultimately leads to an issue with security. Since these airbnb guests open doors for random strangers on the street.
One incident is an AirBnb guest pulled the fire alarm so hard the strobes lights were going off from 11pm on Friday until 1pm on Saturday.... Management does not pay for emergency requests so the residents has to wait until business hours for someone to fix the alarm. Just imagine a quite Saturday morning with strobe lights in every room of your apartment going off.
There is only one elevator for 140 units and the 2nd elevator has been down since December 2023. Of course Management never provides an update. At this point I don't think they are even working on fixing it.
Ultimately this building was amazing, but unfortunately Brookside properties does not care about its actual tenants. So I recommend anyone to look at any other building. There are lots of great options besides The Block.

This Apartment Complex is a Headache
After living at the block for some time now. I feel as if this is an extremely honest review.
There are many AirBnB units in this building, so you see a constant stream of strangers with luggage every day. They will ask you question as if this is a hotel.
There is no security at this apartment building, the locks are usually broken in the garage and exterior doors. The AirBnB guests always open the door for people they do not know, letting is homeless people.
The Gym has no air flow so... you're breathing in carbon dioxide for the work out.
The garage door has been broken for months.
Lastly there is only one elevator for 150 units. Noting the other elevators has been down since December 2023, and management has never provided an update.
There are plenty of apartment options in Indianapolis, this place should not be on your list.

DO NOT RENT HERE
This place has a F rating with the better business bureau. Living in these apartments it is very unsafe. The security measures at the doors do not work, there have been multiple homeless people found through out the building. The elevators have been broken for months and on top of it all there are dozens of Air bnbs so you never see the same people twice.
Also the latest issue is the fire alarm strobe lights going off from 10:30pm until 2:30pm. Management is useless and does not care about... their tenants.
Trust me you're peace of mind is not at the Block Apartments, rent literally anywhere else.
