I've read the last six back-to-back so-called positive RATINGS concerning the condition and maintenance of the REGAL APARTMENTS and to be sure, find the whole lot of them very comical: funny that is, if you need some laughter in your life especially if you've been subjugated to some of the many low-life scams and outright lies that have abounded here at the Regal apatments... to keep my opinion open-minded, I will only focus on a few of the problems here at the REGAL starting with the humor-causing statements made by the last six 'MYSTERY' raters. So here goes:
Previous rater: Funny how someone who is so pleased to be here has not only given the staff such a glowing award has also stated the parking and safety ( though there is no doorman or nite security guard) is FIVE STARS'''' Well that set of mis-statements alone begs one to question the overall ratings as well; any person with a single neuron firing knows that parking has become IMPOSSIBLE in the last year with the construction of not one but TWO new condo high-rises at both ends of the block! Oh, and a vigilant ticket-writer is always on the standby for any person that dreams of trying that! Now back inside to the REGAL better referred previously as HELL HOUSE...
At this writing, the management is removing those more than 45 people (80 units total) that had a meeting in late November two short Months ago who complained about the shoddy conditions by stating some awful changes such as limiting the number of CATS, accordin to one nice woman, from two (normal : check the ASPCA) to one allowed! Intimidation' You decide. The poorly constructed walls here are so THIN that I say "bless you" to whomever is sneezing next door or ABOVE me! No kidding! Lets not even get into the rust in the water pipelines that are coming out of my bath-tub! How about my windows that are PAINTED SHUT so I'm forced to breath the air containing old contaminate from the dirt piles on the rafters that is too many years old to count! The showers sliding door will jump the track if used! I was promised by the management that it would be taken care of before I moved in two years ago!
The biggest question that comes to my mind is why would someone so pleased as punch need to hide behind an ANONYMOUS title' Where did the pride go' I believe straight to the desk in the main office's computer keyboard, That's where! and it's been there for the last seven high ratings as well! Well, I have been hiding behind an ANONYMOUS title as well, but to protect myself from the vengeful nerds in Philly that run this building, however, to date, my frustrated wife has stated she will not return to this dump of a place if I remain here, so now I'm moving out at the end of my lease, thank God! I'm free again! Oh, but don't fret, good reader, I'm not done with these scamlords yet! Scammers like these never win, like cockroaches, they just find new places to practice their awful, nasty scams at.

i love this apartment along with all my friends in this building. I also have no issues with maintenance. If you dislike this building so much then just move out. I'm sure they will not have a problem renting to someone else.

of course parking is hard its the south loop, we live here and know this, thats why we pay for parking, however parking on the street is not impossible. Before I rented a spot directly behind our building I used to do street parking and it was never aproblem unless I was getting home late--and even then It wouldn't take me long to find a spot further away.
