Belmont House has been sold. Same mgmnt (Dolly, Mindy in office). Wonderful lobby, crap apts. Lots of re-hab going on in newly vacated apts, but the rents are going through the roof. Been here 4 years. Never really happy, just too lazy to move. But not any more. This is not the 'special' bldg they make it out to be. Lots of changes announced/in progress. All doormen recently fired. Now a concierge 'service' will begin. Yes, they provide utilities...but you will sweat while you wait for the AC to be activated until a date of the bldgs choosing. Older apts are visibly 'worn'. The new rehabs are nice, but as I said before, they are really setting rent prices way to high. Upwards of $2500 per month for a 2 bdrm. NOT worth it...look around, you can get the same for less even in Lakeview East. Parking is $200 month...and spaces will diminish soon as more bldg changes are made. New 'pet rent' starting up (on top of pet fee at move in). This bldg has lost its luster and charm. Bldg. mgmnt basically thinks, if you don't like it get out -- and many of us are. Very sad.
