Its the opposite from the old/new developments I see.
Old apartment complex: A pool, a small gym, maybe some clubhouse one can rent. Maybe a dilapidated basketball court that last saw fresh paint in the 90s.
New apartment complex: A pool, a large gym, multiple clubhouse/lounge spaces, golf simulators, dog wash stations, dog parks/runs, multiple grilling/picnic areas, maybe even racquet ball courts, etc.
- ethbr1 2y agoWhat city has racquet ball courts in new-build apartment complexes? I've only ever seen them in ~1980s builds.
- vel0city 2y agoI've seen them in DFW. I can't remember which complexes had them, but some built since post-2000 for sure and I thought post-2010 for a few. I haven't been apartment hunting in a few years and so many new complexes go up around me all the time.
- ethbr1 2y agoI could see it in DFW, both because it's a large indoor (air-conditioned) space and because of the surfeit of land to develop. I'd definitely seen them disappear in denser, geo-limited cities. Which is a shame... one of my favorite workouts! And a nice general-purpose court for other things too.
