Poor upkeep and safety issues!!!!

1 working elevator for a 20 story building is ridiculous. Management has zero clue to whatā€™s going on and does not address blatant safety issues all over the building. Rents are too high to justify living here.ā€¦Ā See More >

    Terrible building

    The owners and mangers refuse to fix whatā€™s broken - lots of safety related issues - non working outdoor lights, 1 operational elevator for 16 floors of apartments, on going delayed construction, apartments not being kept up. AND THEY WANT TO RAISE OUR RENT! Avoid!!!ā€¦Ā See More >

      There are only 2 elevators in this 20 floor building, and one of two is often broken. Most recently, one was broken for 3 weeks. I've lived here for several years and there has been constant staff turnover. I don't think they screen employees veryā€¦Ā See More >

          I would not recommend this place at all. Terrible management and way too expensive for what you're getting. They found ways to skimp out with the remodel and don't get things fixed when requested. Owners don't care about it either, they just let the managementā€¦Ā See More >

            FACTOR IN HEATING ELECTRIC COST INTO LEASING BUDGET! If you're moving here in the summer, be forewarned that the building gets real cold in the winter. It's a renovated old building, they cleaned up the look but the core of the building is still old.ā€¦Ā See More >

                      This building may seem nice at first glance, but since moving in we have had many, many problems from plumbing, to laundry, to parking, etc, etc. Instead of attempting to remedy the issues or in the least listen to our concerns, the "management" at Clarkā€¦Ā See More >

                          I think that this place is slightly above average. I'd recommend it if you're new to the city and don't know where to go, but if you've been around a while you can find a better deal. Overall, the building itself is cleanā€¦Ā See More >
