Mediocre at best

Amenities are basically non-existent (e.g. there is no fitness center attached to the building and included in rent, no grilling area that I saw). Also, there is no attached parking garage; instead you're forced to find a spot on the street or pay for a separate garage offsite. The absolute worst part about living here is the construction noise! It wakes me up early every morning, 6 days a week – with no end in sight (even though they were supposed to be done months ago...) Most staff are ok, but there's one in particular who's the worst imaginable so I would avoid him! Maintenance is far from perfect; again there's one in particular who's the worst imaginable (had to request maintenance several times because he didn't fix it the first time). The in-unit washer and dryer combo units might as well not be there; they don't dry your clothes very well and leave balls of lint all over. And the last annoying thing is every few months, there will be a large event/wedding hosted in the building and the crowd of people is annoying. If you can get over all that *and* you can get a good value here, it's ok. But that's a lot of if's and chances are you can do better elsewhere.

Good but not great

A little on the expensive side, but not surprising given the location. Maintenance is average; one of the elevators frequently breaks. Front desk staff are good. The most annoying thing is probably the lack of good parking. There's no spots on the street directly in front of the building; that's reserved for a loading zone. There's a few spots on the street but you can only pay hourly and there's a 2 hour maximum per day. The parking garage closest to the building (separate ownership and no way to access the garage directly from within the building) charges absurdly high rates and has terrible management. If you have a car, you're pretty much forced to park in another garage further away. The other annoyance is when you get packages. Firstly, you can't get them right as they're delivered; you have to wait for the person at the front desk to scan it into their "system" and send you an email notification. This usually takes a few hours but I've had some occasions where it's taken three days. Second, once the you finally do get the notification, the package room is NOT self-serve – residents are not allowed in. Instead, you must get the person at the front desk to get your package from the room and hand it to you. Other minor gripes are that my unit only has one opening window (and no screen) and that there's loud construction going on at the moment.

Do I live in a wedding venue?

I was really surprised to see a sign at the building entrance, announcing that a wedding was taking place in our building's roof deck. I spoke to the leasing office and they were unaware of the wedding. They only knew that an event was occurring. They have no idea of how many people are coming to this wedding or if these people have recently traveled from high risk Covid areas. This is not acceptable. I should feel safe in my home. And safe to use the amenities areas, which I pay a considerable amount of rent to have access to. What will be done about this?
