I lived in lynn hill for a year. The apartments, met my requiremnt as in commuting to BWI and cost of living. The landscape is satisfactory, very well kept up in cosideration for the amount off traffic that goes through there.
Due to my lifestyle as a flight attendant, it does not take much to accomadate me. What i experienced in this complex I had never experienced let alone heard of.
Six month's into the lease we experienced a gas leak. We reported it and was told it was the stoves due to them being gas effecient. We believed them and asked if maintenance would come out. They politely let us know they would send someone out first thing monday morning, It was Friday. If that was not bad enough half a month later we were still smelling the gas. This time we called BGE. They came out and let us know it was not the stove and we actually had a percentage of 2.0 carbon monoxide in our apartment. Mind you it only takes .5 to actually have some serious side effects. BGE issued a citation, and demanded our gas be turned off until the problem was fixed. So our gas was turned off and mind you it was mid January. Maintenance came the next day with one heater no bigger than a wal-mart am/fm radio. And told us BGE does not know what they are doing in several choice words I feel is unnessary to repeat. This problem went on for about three months.
Three citations were issued, and are documented by BGE for the months of Jan-Mar of 2002. We took great measures to get out and used the apartment as a storage for the remaining months.
You are given two keys when you sign the lease. My roomate had turned in his, But I still had mine since I was still paying rent there. This complex decides to relieve me of my belongings in their trash two weeks before the lease was up. When i then confronted them no one seemed to know anything. When asked who was going to get my stuff from the trash everyone was to busy.
I wanted to sue both times, but it seemed to be more trouble than it's worth, not to mention I was paying half of $878 their and $905 where I am now(Regency Club I, better price,place and people).
If you already have a lawyer or are one and have some time to waste I implore you to rent here I am confident they will not let you down on a easily made law-suite.
For those of you looking to rent if you have no choice demand any apartment building besides 401-404, these are the oldest buildings and might be the only ones with these problems mentioned. There are other issues with this place, but as i said earlier it doesn't take much to make me happy. When you are messing around with peoples lives, that's serious stuff

I live in a HUD subsidized building with about 80 apartments and more than 30 years old (Longwood Apartments) in Columbia Maryland. I was diagnosed of having a mild case of carbon monoside poisoning from the heater because I opened the two only windows when I had nausea, shorten of bread, dizzines, desorientation, and headache. The management does not want to repair or fix it alleging that I was "crazy" but my doctor thinks otherwise.
