Stop the smoking, actually deal with your rodent infestation you slum lords

Pros
concierge staff was nice.
Cons
I moved out of this building in 2021. I have lived in many different buildings in several different cities. This is hands down, the WORST apartment building I have ever lived in. DO NOT LIVE HERE. I would see people come tour this building with Danelle Davis and I would bite my tongue because all I wanted to do was tell them the truth. She will lie to you and sell you on things that do not exist and do not happen. The only saving grace of this building are the regular concierge staff. Don't be fooled by how nice the building looks - it's basically a garbage IKEA building. Water leaks, everything is broken, laundry machines never work, and the super will NEVER come fix anything in your apartment without 7 emails and 14 phone calls to management. Elevators are broken frequently and you will get stuck in them. Many tenants smoke cigarettes and it will make your apartment reek of cigarettes and the super will come and there's "nothing they can do". There is a faux sense of security as bikes get stolen from the garage anyways. Management is non-responsive and ignores your emails and calls unless if it's about renewing your lease. But wait… it GETS BETTER! Near our moving date, the super (Fernando) took our house cleaner’s keys (labeled HOUSE CLEANER KEYS) from the front desk and cleared out all the remaining furniture, kitchen items, etc from our apartment, had it re-painted, and CHANGED THE LOCKS without notifying us. He placed my $400 scooter IN HIS OFFICE (with one of my pitchers from the kitchen, and some art?? without telling us!!) and hid the rest of our things in a storage unit in the basement. We went back to our apartment to move the rest of our things and were SHOCKED to find out that the locks were changed and all our stuff was gone. We considered suing the management company but decided it was too much of a hassle and instead negotiated that the management company would pay us for those days that they illegally removed and stole our belongings. I am still in the building’s Facebook group and regularly see posts about tenants smoking cigarettes in the building, pooping in the stairwell, and the new concert venue on the first floor (“wellness space”) below causing the walls to move until 4am (which is allowed, because the owner of the apartment building is the wellness space owner's DAD! AVOID
Advice to the owners
don't steal your tenant's belongings.
