Management Doesn’t Solve Problems—Be Prepared for Frustration

Elevators:

- Frequently malfunctioning or out of service for long periods (e.g., a month).

- Concierge/management responses are consistently unhelpful (“put it in the system as a ticket”), with no real resolution.

Construction on the Block:

- Occupies large portions of roads and sidewalks, causing safety and accessibility issues.

- Leads to increased traffic and hazards near the building.

Detached Garage:

- Persistent smell of marijuana at night.

- Extremely dirty and poorly maintained...
.

- Occasional hazards, such as piles of dog waste left for days in high-traffic areas.

- Construction workers park there and drive recklessly.

- City road repaving pulls smells into apartments, making units uncomfortable or uninhabitable at times.

Management / Staff:

- Complicated system where no one takes responsibility.

- Issues are repeatedly logged but rarely addressed or resolved.

- Staff responses can feel dismissive or unprofessional.
