A DAMN SHAME! I moved to this community about a month ago. I agree. Since I have been here in the "back tower" 2 elevators has been out of order and out for a period of time.

My a/c work i guess whenever the staff cuts it on. The front door to the building lock has not been working and in this heat i have had to argue with a person over the intercom to let me in. She suggest that I carry my bags all the way to the front to gain entry.

It has taken me over 4 hours to wash 10.00 worth of clothes. The washers are not working and to make matters worse you that fire i am now reading about. how about the tenant in the front tower gets to reduce 5% from there rent as well as obtain keys to our building and laundry rooms. How fair is that. where is 7 - 9 % discount for having to pay for their ---- ups.

Last but not least. I went to shower on yesterday during the day on a Sunday. I had no hot water all day in my unit. I woke this morning to find the water was boiling hot. As I went to store downstairs as well tacky...I never been into a store who sells bootleg dvds, cuts hair for 5.00 as well entertain anyone who stops in. I agree after not having use to an elevator I took a walk down the stairs.

Listen, who in their right mind would put carpet near a swimming pools. I saw Palmetto Cockroaches all over the place not roaches Cockroaches. I also agree that security and staff is a joke. I have seen the maintenance supervisor walk around the community after work ours as if she really representing the hood of Souteast DC. She had on house shoes hair not comb with a comb stuck in it. I rolled my eyes at her and she saw and I didn't care.

Last but not least back to my shower. I was in the store I heard conversation from many people on the way there. One lady was walking into the elevators with boxes and she over heard me talking. She then says "September first i am the hell out of here." I then ran into "Lee" maintenance worker. She was holding a conversation with someone and i asked her what was up with the water yesterday. she said "the boiler was turned off." I think that's saving the property money would you agree' I then asked her did i do the right thing by moving here. she walked away and said there is your answer as well she stated that employees where seeking new jobs.

I agree with the office staff. I really think whom ever hired these staff only read the part they had a previous job. this staff has no skills. actually i have had to do their job on an administration level.

Ii was also told by a resident this very morning which is today that there was a tenant strike in the building lasting more than 3 years and when the new owners where in the middle of taking over they tried to get there money out of escrow (the staff). If anyone knows who a TAMMY GREENE is please have her email me at countryboysdream2000@yahoo.com. I heard this lady was a thorn in their side.

And before the smart mofo who will respond to me instead of staff, the only purpose of me taking this apartment was for the size and the bus line as well as my view. Good thing my credit is in order. They ARE seating on the property for a reason. I have had the chance to see what is planed for Good Hope Road/ MLK Ave/ Alabama Ave.

It will happen and I plan to be ready for condo conversion.

This is sad. Over $1100.00 a month for rent and ---- don't work that includes the staff.

Also, to anyone thinking about moving here please be prepared for "apartment registry". This company is data collecting company that Marbury Plaza are using to obtain your credit information. Right who the hell are they'

If you know you have your ducks in a row do not back down from them be the next throne.
