Best building ever!

Pros

I loved living here. Maintenance requests were quick and Mendy was always on top of building management. There are no bugs/mice, the building is quiet, packages are never stolen.

Cons

Water pressure isn't great, living right above the parking garage (3rd floor) could get loud.
