The Metropolitan

The Metropolitan at Collingswood receives overwhelmingly positive feedback for responsive management and maintenance staff, friendly office personnel, and a desirable location near Cooper River and downtown amenities. Most residents appreciate in-unit laundry, the 24/7 fitness center, and the quiet community atmosphere. However, some residents report concerns about unit age and condition issues including bathroom fixtures, heating/cooling control limitations, storage space, and isolated pest or mold problems.
