Perfect location in downtown Durham, lovely apartments, and great amenities. And very pet friendly!

Living at Beckon Apartments has been both grounding and expansive. Nestled in Durham’s warehouse district, it balances calming interiors, thoughtful design, and walkability to yoga in the park, wine tastings, and spontaneous connection—ideal for a neurodivergent mind seeking ease.
The coworking spaces and rooftop lounge support deep work and quiet reset. As an introvert and wellness facilitator shifting into MedTech/AI, I’ve found a community that feels kind, creative, and globally aware... .
Nicole on the leasing team made my cross-country move feel like a landing, not a leap.
Beckon isn’t just housing—it’s the scaffolding for intentional, integrated living. With story-driven community-building, it could become Durham’s curated hub for modern belonging.

Beckon is quiet and cozy. Maintenance is quick and very friendly. My only complaints are related to the grills and price. The grills are constantly broken for one way or another. I don’t know how residents keep breaking them. It’s not hard to use. Additionally, it is a bit crazy how much Beckon costs in downtown Durham. It really shouldn’t be that expensive.

The management is SPECTACULAR! The incredible women work so hard to support and get the residence needs met. The amenities are always clean and the snacks left out by staff make it feel like home.

Overall have loved our experience at Beckon, sad to be moving out this May!
The space is great and the community is wonderful. Love all the amenities. Have only had a few maintenance issues and noise issues, but it was a brand new building when we moved in so that's expected.
