Easy move in
First time moving out and quickly found this apartment thinking it would be stressful. Clarissa made the whole thing very easy and smooth! I am happy with the choice I made.

Apartment Description
Colt Gateway is one of a kind. Our blue dome has been an iconic figure in Hartford for over 150 years. Originally the home to Colt’s Patent Fire Arms Manufacturing Company, this unique 17 acre property features 10 distinct buildings, all being... restored to the National Park Service standards. Colt Gateway’s South Armory, North Armory and U-Shape apartments have all the key elements of industrial conversions to true loft-style apartments –- high ceilings, large airy open spaces, exposed building materials with oversized windows. These genuine loft-style apartments are beautifully appointed with modern touches while retaining the original charm, character and sense of history of Colt’s original armories. Colt Gateway is a mixed-use development offering both residential and commercial spaces. Located in our South Armory we have J Bar which is our cozy neighborhood bar featuring a full drink menu, a selection of food options, and a welcoming patio for outdoor seating. Identified by its iconic blue dome, Colt Gateway is ideally situated due to its proximity to Colt Park, Front Street, the Connecticut Convention Center and Interstates 84 and 91. Walk across the street to the sprawling 106 acre Colt Park. Take a short walk a few blocks along Hartford’s new brick lined streetscapes to the shops and restaurants at the Front Street District. Come visit us and see why Life is Good Under the Dome!

Great Application process and move in!
When I was first interested in these apartments, Clarissa was the initial point of contact and she was quick and professional to answer all of my questions. We scheduled the tours quickly and she was responsive the entire process while I was looking to compare other apartments in the area. The application process was seamless and the official walk through / move in was smooth. No complaints and she was terrific! Would recommend!

4 years of great living!
Management team was very responsive and friendly when I had a question or needed assistance with something. Maintenance requests were fulfilled quickly when there was an issue, but that was infrequent. Will miss living in the South Armory, the views were unforgettable.

Seamless Application and Move In Process
Clarissa was extremely responsive and helpful from the beginning of the application process until move in day. She was on top of everything which made a potentially stressful process go off without a hitch. It was a pleasure working with her.
