Bishop Street Lofts

I don't even know where to start. The units are dated and run-down and Range Group has done nothing to make them worth the exorbitant prices they charge. These units are some of the most expensive in the area and some of the most poorly maintained. In the year that I lived here, my furnace broke (within a month of being here) and had to be completely replaced and the washer/dryer was later replaced for bad bearings. The new ones are also shoddy and cheap, the furnace rattles constantly in... particular. The oven igniter broke and literally poisoned me with gas multiple times, the toilet clogs at least a handful of times a month and building maintenance obviously can't handle it; most likely it needs new plumbing work. The sink was actively leaking into the cabinets underneath when I moved in. All of the appliances are well over 20 years old (typical lifespan is 10-12), and when the refrigerator door shelf broke, Range tried to charge me for it. I refused and they just never replaced it. The walls are so thin you can hear neighbors talking, and most neighbors have yappy dogs and/or horrible throat ailments that cause constant, disgusting throat clearing. The outer wall is uninsulated brick that is constantly crumbling and covering anything near it with bits of brick and mortar. The heat loss is staggering. The windows are not sealed correctly and collect a ton of condensation and drip all over. The hardwood was torn up all over the living area when I moved in and it has shed flakes of the old sealant all over. Old appliances, old plumbing fixtures, old lights and switches, old cabinets, all in poor condition and discolored with age. The parking lot is in equally poor condition, and the "discount" for the gym is about 10%. Laughable. Oh, and despite 12-ft ceilings, you're on your own to buy and change the light bulbs. Read More

Extremely disrespectful, drunk, and loud neighbors. It's unbearable. Rent goes up by every single year.

Do yourself a favor and don’t live here.
The walls are paper thin, so you can hear a lot of what your neighbors do. Which means they can hear you too and there’s really no privacy for anyone.
There’s also a gym downstairs, so even if your neighbors are silent, you’ll hear weights slamming all day long. The gym uses noxious chemicals on their floor that got upstairs and repeatedly forced people to evacuate their apartments.
The water tastes so much like chlorine that it’s barely drinkable... unless you invest in a filter.
After finding a kind of disease-carrying sewer roach in our unit, we learned from the pest control service that they are not an uncommon occurrence in the building.
Our unit was outdated and the finish on our floors was either poorly done or so worn that it would flake off and get all over our skin and furniture.
The building is old and needs a lot of repairs, and the landlord fixes everything as cheaply as possible instead of doing it right. At one point the gate to the parking lot broke probably once a week for almost two months before any real repair was made to fix it for good.
Aside from the issues with the building and the landlord, some of the neighbors are incredibly disrespectful. Residents regularly had their packages stolen from the package room, and dogs use the hallway and the lobby as a restroom.
Despite the deteriorating conditions in the building, the already-high rent was raised at the height of the pandemic when most other buildings offered discounts to their tenants.
So yeah, stay away from Bishop St Lofts.

Don’t be fooled by the positive reviews they received a gift card in exchange for the review. If you’re considering moving here, don’t. It is not worth the price. The building has an oriental roach problem- which are a health hazard to people and pets. The walls are thin and you can hear your neighbors and their dogs barking at all times of the day. Some residents let their dogs defecate in the halls and lobby so it usually smells like urine in the common areas and always smells right outside... the front door since there isn’t a grassed area anywhere around the building. The building is extremely old and needs a lot of repairs, including plumbing so the water gets shut off often and many times without any notice.
Packages get stolen frequently and even someone’s doormat was stolen.
The entire first floor is a gym so you’ll hear loud music and heavy weights being dropped everyday. The gym has been using toxic chemicals on their floors that seeped upstairs, resulting in people have to evacuate their own apartment.
And xfinity is the only internet provider available and has frequent outages in the area. Read More

Ever since Aries took over management of the building, we have gotten some much needed upgrades! New roof furniture that’s great for hosting and a brand new grill. I don’t have a dog but we now have a industrial dog bath in the old laundry room and a bike rack coming soon. Brett is also very quick to respond whenever we have building issues.

The tenants in this building are pretty laid back and it’s a younger crowd. Beautiful exposed brick in every unit.
