Ok... I have lived here in this building for going 9 months now. The building has to elevators and since I moved into this building one out of the 2 elevator was always broken and on some days none worked. Currently we are using the freight elevator the problem with that is that the people who live in the building are so self centered and inconsiderate of others. The problem with the freight elevator is that the doors are manually closed so people tend to leave the doors open on there floor therefore not letting anyone else use it. So with that said there have been times that I have gone grocery shopping and had to haul the groceries up 6 floors just because the elevators were not working or the door were left open on one of the upper floors. Estimated time of repairs is 3 weeks.
Now... for the plush apartment that they talk about on the rent sites... Interior wise they are cool apartments with crown molding and subway style tiles but it's kinda hard to enjoy when at least my apartment has a slight roach problem and it's not that my apartment is dirty I clean my place and wash dishes daily but still can't get rid of the roaches.
I guess it's a bit late to complain about this, seeing winter is almost over and all. Heat after numerous complaints about the heat not working and promises that the problem would be taken care of but nothing has been done. After complaining about the 3rd time a portable heater was supplied to us while they fixed the heater. By the way the complaining about the heater has bee going on since December, it's now Feb. 21st no heat. The Last time we told management about not having heat the swore that the buildings heat was up and running, after telling them not so they sent the repairman to take a look and no kidding the repair man came up to check the heaters in my apartment he said "yeah you have no heat" that was that nothing further has been done.
The area is not the best but that's no fault to Park Wilshire... The area does tend to get pretty loud during weekends do to all night raves and party's across the street but now a days it doesn't happen like it used to 2 times a month was on average. There is plenty of filming that go on making it difficult to park and sometimes leave the area do to road closers. One last thing when it comes to the area and road closers during the area tends to have a problem with the city issuing out permits for street festivals and fair, good luck trying to get leave the area when a festival is going on...
Parking is an issue when it comes to the building. It only has about 30 parking spaces and it has something like 220 - 230 apartments and recently management evicted virtually everyone from there parking spaces and offering parking about block away for $50.
If you are planning on moving in to these apartment please consider the above because if I knew then what I know now I would never have moved into this place. The old management was better; ever since the building was sold things have changed for the worse even though they might think they are doing better than the previous owners. It all comes down to people being happy about where they live but I have noticed something in the recent months it no wonder why plenty of tenants have left the building.
