Overpriced, cheap build, rent hikes despite people not wanting to rent here
Former Tenant
Pros:
location, view (until new buildings constructed), light, space
Cons:
initially promised rooftop grills and reneg'd, common areas not well maintained (broken pool cues, nonfunctional theatre room, no cable in gym/common space, worn rooftop furniture) despite charging fee for access, very loud street noise (windows poorly soundproofed), poorly sound insulated building (hear everything on your floor especially from the hallway), smoke free property but smokers right outside the front door (and hallways often smell of smoke), AC units will drip on your furniture (they did not buy the unit with a drip tray it seems), cannot open windows further than like half an inch and wind will blow them shut (also they dont clean exterior windows), very limited bathroom space/functionality to appear "chic", industrial look of building takes wall space and just seemed like an excuse for shoddier construction, takes majority of deposit for normal wear and tear (or charging like $15 for a single very small allen key that they refer to as a door unlocker). Also changed building managers every month it seemed.

Nice Overpriced Bldg
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is new and in a good safe area, only a few blocks to Q train
Cons:
The building has a lot of foot traffic. People illegally list Airbnb and ppl show up all times of night. Packages often stolen. Low income people who don't pay full rent have their kids running all over the building. Property manager doesn't respond to emails
