What You See Vs. What You Get

There's no doubt that the pictures and promotional materials for this building look great; the amenities are pretty good, admittedly. The same cannot be said for the residences, however. Due to faulty ductwork design and construction, the HVAC system throughout the building has underperformed, particularly on cold nights; building management had to distribute space heaters to residents back in January, which we are still using as of March. The decision not to cover the concrete curtain walls at the building's corners means the building makes a "popping" sound whenever the temperature changes; the sound is persistent, and it is LOUD. Rushed and shoddy work within the units means you can expect your unit to have a significant number of scratches/scrapes, uneven finishes, and some missing elements. Building management has tried to pass these concerns off as small tradeoffs of living in new construction, which is insane (they developed the property, after all); at what they're charging to lease here, though, it's borderline negligence.
