Constant construction, bad work out room and poor management

Between the multiple high-rises across the street (that will ruin all Northern views), the parking garage construction and exterior balcony construction, this place has been miserable to live and try to work from for the last year. Management blatantly lied to us during the renting process and promised us the new condo towers across the street wouldn't go higher than our floor, however, all three will be going well beyond our height, thus ruining the view we thought we were paying for. In addition, the work out facility is worthless. The tv's or efx's or treadmills are constantly broken and there isn't enough equipment to go around. There is only one workout bench and the machines are always too busy to make it possible to get a useful workout. If management wasn't so cheap and instead focused on tenant needs, they would realize this and consider putting in additional equipment. Lastly, the leasing team here is horrible. They believe their building is the one and only upscale rental tower in the gold coast and think it should sell itself, thus minimizing their need to work with new and existing tenants. There are plenty of other options out there in the area for much less money right now.
