The "Apartments & Townhomes of Woodmar" had a spruce upon its grounds.

On this day a Silverado from circa 2020 was posed nearby, in a backed-in position.

This all looks pretty comfortable from out here, in its brick veneer and replacement siding, but the complex was built in 1959, and I have observed that apartment buildings from that time period are commonly at a difficult age in the U.S., vis-à-vis deferred maintenance.

But I don't have any experience with this complex. Maybe it's an exception to the usual stories we find at the intersection of landlord greed and Boomer/Xer amorality, of money hoarders endlessly finding ways to enrich themselves by actively worsening the conditions of others.
