The majority of the occupancy is short term housing. I am of the minority that has lived her for a while and although these complaints(sorry reviews) are worth discussing, I see a lot of lies among the truth. Yes there was a leak and yes there is monthly employees parking in the building but what these residents are not stating is that all this information is provided at the beginning of the move in process.

One example, the pool area was under construction for a while, Yes, this is noted but it was also the best time to work in that area because it was the winter time and very cold. We the residents were all informed of it so compensation for what. I applaude the Management for having the desire to spruce up a building that has been around for 17 yrs.

The location is awesome. We're walking distance from the Music Center, the MOCA is across the street, there is life after 5pm. The summer months are awesome; there's more activities to choose from (Night Vision, the Grand Performances, etc.)

Why complain after you move out' Why do it online'

So Cyranojoe, where do you live now? I will be working in downtown and want to find a place close by.. any recommendations?

I'm on the west side now, which is working out all right. I can't praise one area (or complex) over another, though. I presume the rents have skyrocketed downtown as the lofts have been more finished, the grocery story finally finally opened, etc. I just realized that posting this wiped out my response to the original comment. What a stupid system! In sum, I said that: (1) I complained to management while in the building, and complained as we moved out. I'm baffled that anyone would presume from my previous post that I had not done so. (2) While the above poster may have had the information regarding parking, etc provided to them prior to moving in, we did not -- again, presuming that others' experiences are the same as their own. And (3) I do not mean to say that our experiences were the same as everyone else's -- although saying the pool was only closed for the winter is ludicrous, it was for more than 12 months -- and I do not wish for anyone to take my comments with anything but the appropriate grain of salt. Buyer definitely beware, especially here.
