As of today, all of our apartment communities have electricity. We do have some isolated issues where Entergy is trying to restore electricity to a handful of buildings within some of our communities. We also expect the possibility of temporary outages as Entergy performs work in nearby areas. We have worked closely with Entergy to bring power back to all communities.
We have been assessing damage at our communities since right after the storm and have begun the work to repair damages. Until very recently, most of our Rental Offices did not have power, working phones or internet.
Starting Monday, September 13, 2021, all Rental Offices will be open during their regularly posted business hours. If you have any questions, please contact your office during those times.
Thank you for your patience as we move forward from Hurricane Ida.

Congratulations, New Orleans, on this incredible accomplishment! Whether you already live here or are thinking about moving here, one thing is for sure: it’s an incredibly dynamic place to live.
With beautiful fall temperatures, we’re making the most of our time outside at the Farmers Market in Citrus Creek Apartments, one of many communities within our River Ridge apartments.
Whether or not you live at Citrus Creek (or maybe you’re interested in moving there), you’re welcome to stop by our next Farmers Market on Thursday, November 17 from 4 until 7 p.m. Browse or buy locally grown and made food and objects at this outdoor, River Ridge market centrally located in the middle of Elmwood at 5301 Citrus Blvd, Elmwood, LA 70123! We’re providing all the entertainment, too, with live music as you shop and mingle with your neighbors. Oh, and it’s dog-friendly!
In addition to the array of locally made products available at the Farmers Market, we will also have staff on hand to give tours of the property and answer any questions you may have about Citrus Creek or our other River Ridge apartments.
At the Bella Ridge Brown Bag Wine Tasting Party, our residents and their guests tasted 8 different wines ranging from $6 – $38. Sip after sip, votes for the crowd favorites poured in.
Contending for the crown in the Merlot category, we had Chateau Ste. Michelle, Crow Canyon, Swanson Vineyards and Ramspeck. Among the Sauvignon Blanc contenders were Oak Grove Vineyards, Mohua, J. Lohr and Cake Bread Cellars.
The winners? You might be surprised.
