"A living hell with trees."

Treeridge Parkway started out really calm and pretty. Tall lush trees, tons of little sparrow and squirrel families all around. It was like a little hideaway from the hustle and bustle of Holcomb Bridge. But last year it all changed, and it was so bizarre that I had to break my lease and move out immediately. So if you are considering moving into an apartment over there, I'd highly recommend that you take a walk through those woods... notice how there are no longer any birds. That's all I'm allowed to say. If anyone knows what happened over there I'd like to know about it. Because I was too afraid to ask when I lived there. Please, if you have children or a family, or even if you don't-- PLEASE-- don't move there. Thanks, and I wish all my old neighbors in my building the best-- they were all good people.

AdamS Hi mrskeeblerelf,

Wow! What an amazing review. Very honest, that's what StreetAdvisor is all about. I have to ask though, what happened to the birds? Do you think someone had something to do with the disappearance? Could it have been a natural occurrence? Are there still other animals in the forest?

mrskeeblerelf Thanks! I could see the woods from my apartment window, and to be honest-- no. No animals living out there at all anymore. I'd see a few little squirrels and birds playing out there every now and then... but they never stuck around for very long. They all cleared out a couple months back. I lived there for 2 years and in winter of 2006 I saw lots of animals out there in the woods, so I knew something unsettling was going down out there.

As to why I am honestly unsure-- but I did notice towards the end of the year was getting frequently disrupted by an unusual amount of landscaping crew who were out there all the time with snow-blowers, but there wasn't any snow out there? And there was this beeping noise that sounded like a dump truck in perpetual backup going off all day intermittently. It got so loud sometimes that it sounded like a TON of construction going on-- but when I'd look out of my window there nothing out there at all. No traffic, no cars... no people... no crew... sometimes not even snow blowers out there.

I noticed that the lightpost overlooking the back parking lot been "repaired" about 2 months back-- oddly enough-- to a 360° covered dome, while leaving the light post in the neighboring parking lot (that flickers on and off all night) untouched. In my unit, I watched deep heavy cracks suddenly started to show up along the walls by the ceiling and even across my stone hearth to the fireplace. I kept hearing these loud cracking noises in my sun room-- like the foundation was sinking or something. It was more than creepy-- a little TOO creepy to stick around. I was petrified. My intuition told me to get out of there ASAP, so I did.

Womper007 Are you for real? This certainly sounds pretty creepy! How long have you been out of there for? And have you been back since to check it out? I for one couldn't resist finding out what the hell was going on!! Did you speak with any of the other neighbours in the area? Surely there had to have been other people that have had some similar experiences...?

I was looking at the map for the area and it looks like a really nice place to reside.

This is certainly something that needs to be explained! I for one want to know more!!

mrskeeblerelf Yeah me too, I went door-to-door asking the neighbors in my building but most of them didn't answer. The ones who did didn't know anything, seemed taken off guard by me going door to door about it. Whatever it is I hope it gets resolved soon-- you are exactly right it was a beautiful area to live in.
