Apartment Review for Dominion Towers - Arlington, VA

I moved into Dominion Towers in April 2005. Overall I can't say that the community is horrible but does have lots of room for improvement. Recently the building was purchased by another company, and the rents were immediately increased to "market value." The problem is that over the past 6 months, I've noticed how dirty the interior of the building has become. Writing on walls, paint chipped in halls, by elevators, filthy basement entry way, dirty carpeting and very musty smelling. They consider their units renovated by gutting the kitchen and resurfacing the tubs and adding a new cabinet in the bath. Overall, it's a quiet place to live, but I see more and more rifraf living here, and the owners aren't using the increased rent to clean up the place.
