Great building team

Extremely well maintained building with great staff

Pros: Very well maintained, thick walls, great staff Cons: Right next to a church so sometimes bells would ring

This building is soo dated, I mean it's over 15 yrs old now, with the original finishes, corridor carpets, etc. Don't be fooled with the grandiose foyer, that is immaculate because they clean it every day, just go up onto any floor corridors and see for yourself. Everything is old and dated and it smells. The finishes in the apartments are so cheap, everything is Home Depot quality, it's truly awful. And don't get me started on the appliances. They pretend to be a high end, luxury rentals, but really, it's a "emperors new clothes" situation...and these apartments are very expensive for what they are! And you can hear everything - these walls are paper, and you'll hear every step above you and no one will do anything about that. Buyer be aware -if you think you got a "deal" on your rent, just wait...the next year they will hit you with enormous rise in rent, because of the 420 tax abatement which they transfer onto you, because they legally can!!! Read that fine print in your contract!!! They never clean the carpets, maybe once a year. Windows in the apartments are so filthy and again, they Never wash them. There is ever so present stench of dogs fesces as soon as you exit the building...urine everywhere, smears of poo everywhere, it is so gross. They only rinse the very front door area , never the actual sidewalk that is soiled with excrements. Dear Glenwood, if you are reading this, know that people are not stupid and they know what you are up to.
