Beware!

Years at this apartment: 2007 - 2008
When the apartment in question has tenants passing out petitions and long negative reviews, please reconsider.
It really saddens me to see how much the current management has diminished this historic apartment. All we can think about these days is the parking. The first thing we say when we see our neighbors, Can you believe what they ve done to the parking' When I tell my friends that our parking s just gone, they all respond with disbelief: What do you mean gone' My co-workers all tell me I should move.
Like the comment before me, I'm currently living at Hollywood Towers. However, I've found a new place and I'm moving immediately. Most of all the current residents that I have spoken to are moving, too. (To the last commentator thanks for the warning about the security deposit. I m waving my $2,000 goodbye)
Despite the beautiful building, friendly atmosphere, and pet tolerance, the management Lies! When I first moved in, I was told that the apartment came with 1 parking spot and that an additional spot in the underground garage can be purchased for $100/mth. I bought it. At that time, there were 2 other underground parking spots available. Had I known this was going to happen, I would have bought another spot.
All of a sudden last month, all our assigned parking above ground is gone. Management maintained that they were in the process of finding additional parking accommodations. So, like a fool, I believed them. I d known for a year that there was going to be construction and I was assured throughout this whole time that assigned parking was not going to be affected. Looking back, I realize, how is it possible that the management is still unclear about the parking situation when they ve had at least a year since I, the tenant, was informed' The answer, they knew. They just didn t tell us. They made the manager a scapegoat, fed him and us a bunch of lies, then said good luck!
Instead, what do we come to find' Nothing. Literally nothing had been done. We're still paying the same rent, our parking just vanished.
In addition, their records are a mess! Last month when my boyfriend asked how much we owed for rent, they responded with How much do you usually pay' I can only wonder, is this another trap' Are they going to trick me here like they roped me in with the illusion of dedicated parking'

Also in regards to the safety of the apartment, the underground "secure" parking has been broken into twice in the past year. The above ground parking experienced MAJOR vandalism a couple months ago. About 16 cars had been broken into and items were stolen. Most of the cards had broken windows, scratched doors and almost all of them required body repair.
