Former Tenant

Non working elevators
Over 4 years ago
New development with pre war issues
Former Tenant
Pros:
The location is the only positive of the building
Cons:
- Amenities that are advertised are not accurate, all of them are incomplete, badly damaged with no foreseeable repair.
- Air conditioning / heating did not work for almost a year due to a missing piece that was not installed during construction. Then after it was installed, the units improved slightly but they still do not work accurately nor properly. Be prepared to be cold in the winter and hot in the summer. And no, the landlord or management did not provide any interim solution, we have given up and just hope for our lease end to arrive fast.
- Almost every single appliance in the kitchen despite being new has broken down and are still waiting for repairs after months of submitting for repairs
- the closets shelves have fallen because they were glued not drilled
- elevators are not finished, probably because developer never paid elevator company
- sometimes you will be called for deliveries other times they will just let them up
- you can smell and hear everything from other apartments through vents in the bathroom
- to submit a rental application they will ask you for hundreds of dollars and make you wait months until you hear back. Perhaps they wish you would just pull your application or get tired of waiting so that they get to keep your application fee.
- there is no Wi-Fi in any of the shared spaces
Advice to owner:
Do better but I know this will fall on deaf ears.
