District 1860

I used to truly enjoy living here and appreciated what was advertised as “luxury living” with all the amenities it offered. Unfortunately, that no longer feels like the case.

The garage parking door is frequently broken, which has become a recurring inconvenience. There have also been multiple instances of unfamiliar and suspicious vehicles driving through and parking on the second-floor garage and parking where they are not supposed to.

Additionally, the elevators have been out of service on... several occasions, often at the worst possible times. Due to my condition, I’m unable to carry heavy items, yet I’ve had to carry groceries from the parking garage all the way up to the fifth floor, which is extremely hard for me and frustrating.

Another major concern is that we no longer have on-site security, which only adds to the growing sense that the building is not being properly managed or maintained at the level expected of a “luxury” residence.

Residents pay a significant amount to live here, and these ongoing issues do not reflect the standard we are being charged for. Management should be more proactive in enforcing community policies and rules. This includes issuing warnings and penalties to residents who fail to comply—such as those who do not clean up after their pets, leaving waste throughout common areas.

There are also repeated issues with residents smoking inside the building despite it being prohibited. The smell of marijuana in the stairwells and elevators is persistent and unacceptable, especially in shared spaces.

Overall, the quality, reliability, cleanliness, and sense of safety that once justified the cost of living here have significantly declined. I urge management to take these concerns seriously and take immediate steps to restore the standards that were originally promised. Read More

If you’re considering living here because it’s marketed as “luxury,” I strongly recommend doing thorough research and speaking with current residents before signing a lease.

In my experience living here, management has changed multiple times during my tenancy and residents were not given clear communication about those transitions. The recurring issue has been inconsistent communication and difficulty getting concerns addressed, which is frustrating given the premium price point.

There have... also been ongoing building issues during my time here. For example, the elevator and garage door have experienced repeated outages, which has affected residents’ daily routines. Security has also been a concern. When I first moved in, there was discussion of overnight or extended security coverage, but that has not always been present.

Cleanliness has also been inconsistent. The dog area is frequently not well maintained and there have been occasions where pet waste in hallways or common areas remained for extended periods before being addressed.

Communication with management has been particularly challenging. I have sent emails regarding concerns and did not receive responses and residents are often encouraged to discuss issues in person rather than in writing. In my experience, different staff members have sometimes provided conflicting information, which makes it difficult to understand what policies or resolutions actually apply.

Another concern is that the building’s community app appears to go back and forth on limiting some resident posts about building issues. Because of that, many residents have turned to other platforms to communicate with each other about ongoing concerns and share information.

If you tour the building, I would suggest visiting later in the evening, when things are operating as they normally would outside of scheduled tours. That may give a more accurate sense of day-to-day conditions.

You may see a response from management under this review saying they are working to address concerns or asking me to contact them directly. I appreciate any effort to improve things and would gladly update this review if meaningful changes occur. For now, this review reflects my personal experience living here and I encourage prospective residents to speak with current tenants and gather multiple perspectives before making a decision.

The maintenance team is slow on doing work orders

After enduring a night of sleeping in my car and almost a week of a malfunctioning front door-lock that made my home less safe and secure, all because the maintenance office couldn't be bothered to communicate with me about a five-minute fix that could be provided by the front desk (but instead chose to mark multiple service requests as resolved when the problem was still occurring), I certainly feel MUCH less valued as a resident than I did prior to Sunday night. When I actually, desperately... needed the much-ballyhooed "services" of this alleged community, I was instead coldly rejected and quite literally left locked out. Read More

My experience at District 1860 has been wonderful! I feel like I am living in a luxury hotel. From the beautiful living space, to the many community amenities, spaces and activities, to the welcoming neighbors and staff, I feel lucky to call District 1860 my new home!
