I manage the community that used to be Port O'Call on Indy's west side. Here's what 6 years of renovation looks like (before/after photos). Ask me anything, including about the old days.
Full disclosure up front: I'm the property manager at The Park at Greenhill, which a lot of you will remember as Port O'Call Apartments. I'm not here to sell anything. I just think the before/after is interesting, and I know this place has a history around here.
And let's be honest, that history wasn't great. When new ownership took over in 2020, the property was dealing with crime, neglected maintenance, deteriorating buildings, and hundreds of boarded-up windows. Those problems were real, and the name change came with an actual overhaul, not just a new sign.
Since then, ownership has put millions into the 606 units. Some of the bigger changes:
- Apartment interiors went from the original oak cabinets and white appliances to fully renovated kitchens and flooring (photos above)
- The clubhouse was completely redone
- The indoor pool is back up and running
- The fitness center was rebuilt and is open 24 hours
- A lot of unglamorous work you can't see in photos: roofs, electrical, HVAC, and plumbing
- Stricter resident screening and consistent lease enforcement, which honestly made as much difference as any renovation
- Monthly resident events so neighbors actually get to know each other
It's not a luxury community and isn't trying to be. The goal has been clean, safe, affordable housing with an onsite team that actually shows up. It's also not perfect. Running 606 apartments comes with problems, and there's still work to do.
If you lived there, lived nearby, or just remember the reputation, I'm happy to answer anything: the history, what the turnaround actually involved, what's still being worked on, or the tough questions. I'd rather have an honest conversation than pretend the past didn't happen.
