Four Thousand Yonge Street

The lobbies are an embarrassment out of the sixties. Carpets are filthy and ugly. Don't bring your friends through the front door. The building doesn't like to spend money, picking bargain basement end-rolls and wallpaper. Nothing matches.
There are cockroaches I discovered last year just after moving in. The building fails to address the issue.

Beware – M&R Holdings does Above Guideline Rent Increases every five years. If you can afford to pay these massive increases on top of the already jacked up prices, you can afford to live somewhere that isn’t basically a run down ‘70s motel.

If you work from home, are retired or stay home with young children, good luck. The noise from repairs is constant. Not improvements, never improvements. Just necessary repairs because of the absolute neglect of the building since M&R Holdings took... over. Plus the visitor parking lots are constantly repurposed and not usable for tenant visitors. We've been locked out of our balconies for months, no sign of work starting (or proof it is even needed)

Not to mention the incredibly rude head office staff who behave as though they are doing you a favour by taking your thousands of dollars every month and who communicate exclusively via nasty letter, full of venom but no actual information.

It’s a shame. This used to be a really nice place to call home. Those days are long gone. Now I’m embarrassed to have visitors it is in such a poor state.
