I ABSOLUTELY agree with the most UNPROFESSIONAL building manager I have ever met EVER. (Michelle) ...They all have a complete disreguard for the safety of their tenants . After numerous attempts to fix a parking lot outside of my building (in which was paved in 2007 WITHOUT A PERMIT from the city.. never inspected..and lacks sufficient drainage) my 7 month old and I slipped on the ice that is never ever tended to. I was told that only Marquette management and wells fargo insurance would deal with my issue and quoting Michelle screaming on the telephone to me " Im sick of this situation why don't you just F'ing move..if you come into the clubhouse again about this situation I will have you arrested" .. wow what WONDERFUL people to pay to get you to move into "luxury living" Everything breaks... your utilities will sky rocket in the winter.. the maintenance men fly by on snowmobiles when we have small children around..drive their golf carts on the lawn making it all muddy and park their broken down POS cars in our lot so we are late for work because I can't get out of my driveway let alone find parking.
If you are a mother like me and tries to see the good in people you will not find it here.. I do not want my children in an unsafe environment or thinking its okay to talk to people the way they do at Bourbon Square.

I hope I at least save ONE PERSON from renting here because before long the law will catch up with this company..its illegal activities and unprofessional staff

FYI its 1300 a month with nothing included to live here. GOOD LUCK

I have to agree Michelle Cowell is a complete idiot!! First of all she is always outside smoking, avoids all phone calls and is a LIAR! We have had nothing but problems since we have moved in and I do have to admit I thought I was being a little picky (seeing as I used to rent from another Marquette Building) but even my three neighbors have had the same problems as I have. The maintence department is a joke, our sinks constantly floods and the bath tubs back up, there is a wasp problem in the laundry room (with a great response from Michelle be careful or don't do laundry there) UMM yes that is what I pay for!!!! Don't move here!!
