Nice Building, Bad Management
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is so nice. The lobby is tremendous. The front desk people are great. Apartments are new and renovated. Views and amenities are unmatched.
Cons:
Management is about as unseen as it gets. Months go by without responses to maintenance requests. Complaints about neighbors are ignored. Pretty much never hear anything from them. Worst part is location - no nearby groceries, no restaurants, have to walk 15 minutes to nearest train, lots of sketchy businesses and homeless on your walk to and from.
Advice to owner:
Answer your residents. It makes us want to stay.
