Policies

A great feature of Metropolitan Square is its pet-friendly policy, meaning you can have your furry friend by your side. There are a few building regulations to keep in mind, such as a limit on the number of occupants per unit and certain size restrictions for pets. A security deposit is also required for renters, so be prepared for that when looking to settle into your new home.
