    DONT LIVE HERE

    Management is consistently unprofessional and unresponsive. The persistent smell of marijuana, frequent package thefts, and lack of soundproofing—where every movement from your neighbors and upstairs can be heard—make it nearly impossible to get any peace in your unit.

    Don’t expect your concerns (including safety concerns) to be addressed; any attempt to resolve issues is met with silence.

    Abandon all hope ye who enter here...
