Parking Garage is Horrible

I have lived in this building for 2 years - we are moving due to job relocation, not because we were unhappy with the building. The doormen are all wonderful and friendly and the maintenance staff is very quick to respond. A couple of minor nuisances: if you face east, invest in some good shades. The ones provided do not block out the sun so in the morning you are blinded by the light. Also, it took some time to block out the Michigan Avenue noise. You can hear everything from loud car steroes to the buses to people yelling. I never hear my neighbors, just the noise outside.

The garage is a nightmare! They have scratched our new car on 2 different occasions and refuse to take responsibility. The damage was obviously done by the crazy valet drivers as there was significant amounts of yellow paint on our car and this is the only garage we park in! When I contacted the garage manager I was told that if we didn't see them do the damage then they can't be responsible. This is the biggest scam! How can we see them do the damage when they park underground and bring the cars up'! AND they take forever to bring your car up - definitely have to call ahead if in a hurry.

If you don't own a car, this place is ok - if you do - seek shelter elsewhere!
