I had a terrible experience at the Garrett in navy yard. I would avoid that whole group of buildings and stay away from the newer quick construction ones. I though lived in Valo in southwest waterfront and that building was built like a rock. It’s newer, but the quality is high and I couldn’t hear anything!

I now live in a cheaper basement apartment on Capitol Hill. It’s freakishly quiet here on the street and I live in the bottom of an old house and rarely hear my landlords above. So basement apartments in a quiet neighborhood might fit your budget better and be right up your alley.

You are very lucky if you don't hear your upstairs neighbors very often in an english basement lol. Most have wooden floors above and every footstep is LOUD.

I am thankful. I was also worried about that. I feel very lucky to live in my place generally. It’s the least subterranean basement apartment you’ll come across. And it’s on such a great street. I don’t plan on moving out anytime soon.
