I used to work at the Fillmore Center and am here to confirm all the negative postings I see, or at least many.

One thing that anyone that can read will agree with is that the building's construction has had a VERY poor rating. That's been in all the papaers, and anyone who has lived there at least 3 months will painfully agree.

One thing that I'm willing to be NOBODY on this forum knows is that a study was run on the building to find out what the total damage would be to the property if a significant earthquake hit.

I found the report in a binder when working there and couldn't believe I was actually returning to work the next day. The report suggested that the property would suffer a 70% loss. I don't know much about these reports, but that sounds really bad, especially when considering that there are three high rises there.

Take risks if you like, but why risk your life' People have complained about violence. People have complained about mold. I am presenting info about poor construction and a lack of retrofitting for earthquakes.

Do you love the apartment, the neighborhood, the "convenience" enough to ignore these warnings' Would you let your parents live there'

Be smart.

MURP!!!! a few great JAZZ CLUBS! !! The mother ship YOSHI's nearing completion right on the corner. That should rock the top floors.

Speaking of that, during the last big quake the Bay Bridge suffered major damage, as did the ball park. Severe damage in the Marina to all those 2 and 3 story houses. Yet the highrises and other buildings at The Fillmore Center escaped without any damage. So the anonymous former employee is full-o-crap. In the years that we have lived here, we have experienced lots of quakes, mostly little trembles with the occasional 3.5 thrown in. The buildings survived them all. THere has been no retrofit because the inspections revealed none is needed.

So another bitter former employee has expressed his/her opinion. Take it for what it's worth.

Penthouse rocker!!
