Downhill

The current ownership and management are running this building into the ground. Elevators break down constantly - generally only one of three is in operation at a time - and repairs are slow and shoddy. The gates to the garage are broken, resulting in frequent car theft and trespassing. HVAC works only sporadically, pipes and vents are poorly maintained, leaks are constant, washing machines and dryers are in disrepair, and the office has inexplicably stopped giving tenants (paid) access to the… small on-site gym. Reasonable tenant requests are ignored, and while the office staff isn't solely to blame for the building's rapid deterioration, they make matters worse through their rudeness and unprofessionalism. I am counting the days until my lease is up.

Do not be misled

Elevators frequently break down, there are days, when none of the three elevators are working (Building has 16 floors). If you live here, be prepared to arrange your grocery shopping, laundry, and visitors, around, the hope, at least one elevator will be working, and you, or your guests will not get stuck, in the one working elevator. The idea of 24 hour security and "gated" parking, is also misleading. While the lower level, of the garage, has a working gate, the middle and top levels, have not… had a gate in over a year. Those two levels are open to anyone, and there were 2 incidents, on the 2nd level. Tenants' have broken floor tiles, and issues with Heating/AC units. All of these issues are well known to tenants and building management.

Falling Apart

DO NOT MOVE HERE! The elevators haven't worked in months. The garage door is broken for a year. The new owners do NOT maintain the building at all.
